wife does work, but it really just makes a dent.

I have some more specific questions about the interview process. How many are on the panel and who does it consist of. What questions were you asked, duration of interview, any pointers for successful interview at their program. I really appreciate the help.

preCRNA

I graduate this fall from Kaiser. The interview process includes 12 people in the room in a u-shaped set-up. You are sitting at the open end.

4 people are Jrs/Srs., 2 CRNAs that are practicing, 2 MDAs and 4 faculty.

The questions range from what do you like to do in your spare time to scenerios of disagreements with MDs and how you would handle the situation.

No GRE (only proves you can study and take a test) They want to know of your past accomplishments, your committee work and your proven teamwork/leadership.

Good Luck!
