I started CRNA school at Clarkson College last week. If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask!

WyHunt- I'm actually having a hard time remember ing my interview now that it has been so long... 7 years I think?... anyway... I believe they are looking at personal attributes, not academic attributes, when it comes to the interview. They can teach...

Yep, it sends an email to me whenever someone posts on this thread. Glad you found the thread helpful.

Congrats! As far as what to bring, I would just bring a copy of your application, CV, essay, etc. in case they for some reason don't have that or misplaced it. They really do read the essays. That's how they narrow down who to interview among equall...

I'm graduating next month from Clarkson College. I hear "Clarkson students outshine Bryan and Mount Marty students" lol I think it's just a competition between schools type of thing. Our "skyped" lecture was our pharmacology lecture. From Dr. Nagelh...

I'm an ICU nurse whose Grandpa is not doing so good. My family's plan of care for him is to take him home on hospice. However, he's on levophed. Does anyone know if he can be discharged with a bag of levophed, I can run it, and we can take him home (...

I think bottom line is to keep shadowing, get your ICU RN experience, and go from there. I think the advisor is probably just tired of people saying "CRNA" because of the salary. There is a small percentage of CRNAs who hate their job (too boring) an...

I know there are a lot of SRNA hopefuls on this forum, but this topic is specifically for those who have been accepted to or are in a program (SRNAs and future SRNAs). So, I'm only just starting my second semester of a front loaded program, but you k...

If you know you are weaker in some anatomy/physiology/pathophysiology areas (neuro for me), I would look at those chapters in the books you are assigned. And watch YouTube videos on the concepts. My program started off with neuro right off the bat. L...

Well, no one warned us so we took it at Clarkson :/

I think they don't give a number b/c if they need to pull off the waitlist, they get together and thoroughly discuss who to pull. I was originally waitlisted. I asked yesterday what made them pull me off the waitlist, and they said they would never t...

That's so awesome! Email me at [email protected] or at [email protected] Both accounts go straight to my phone and I would love to answer any questions you might have.

My program has 15 people, mostly aged 26-30 with two people >40.

Part of CRNA school is being in charge of your learning. What that means is you will not be spoon fed the material. So, look at the question you just asked. You're asking to be spoon fed the answer. There are many resources out there that will answer...

Anyone get notified of acceptance? We were talking to our instructors today and they have selected 15, 3 of which they are still waiting to hear back from the individuals whether they've accepted or not. I don't believe they've notified the waitliste...

University of Arizona only does Skype interviews, I think. At least they didn't give me an option. It was just Skype

I completely agree with mgray3 and rocknrolling. They main focus of the interview is to get to know you and they really do want to see you succeed. Your success is their success. I think a big part of me wanting to start this thread is to help every...

Don't forget, everyone who had interviews, please add to this thread to tell future candidates what the interview process was like. Also, post here if you get a spot for Class of 2021 (Aug 2018 start)

School name doesn't matter at all. There are about 10 job opportunities for every graduating SRNA

We are using John Nagelhout's "Nurse Anesthesia" book. It's like the bible for our program. Not pharmacology focused, but it's in there.

Anybody have Sat interviews?

My email is [email protected] if you prefer that to forum. But anyone reading might have the same question, so you could just ask here

Pick away!

Do you have your CCRN? I am finding out a lot of core foundation for my SRNA classes are built on CCRN concepts. I'm in my first semester of a front loaded program, but they have already exposed us to board type questions based on the content we are ...

Thanks! As a follow up to your question, I found out today that a 3 year membership to APEX is included in tuition. This is phenomenal. Basically, APEX is a board exam prep course, but it also has a ton of useful diagrams/workbooks/flashcards etc. to...
