I've recently submitted my applications to a couple of CRNA programs (South College and National University), and I'm now shifting my focus toward preparing for a potential interview. I'll be honest—I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed and unsure of where to begin, so I'd really appreciate any guidance or advice from those who've been through this process.
Specifically, I'm looking for help with pharmacology and math preparation. I've heard that some interviews include medication-related questions or dosage calculations, and I haven't done drug math in a while (not since nursing school, honestly). I've seen people recommend the Barron's CCRN book, but I've noticed it doesn't dive deep into the mechanisms of action at the cellular level, which I'd like to understand better.
Any tips, suggestions, or resources you've found helpful would mean a lot—whether they're directly related to these topics or just general interview advice. Thanks so much in advance! 🙏🏼
