Sorry y'all, my OCD is kicking in hard. In the title, could we please change "John" to "Johns," and the apostrophe to come before '27' (like '27)? Thanks so much ❤️

The fear of med errors have made us meticulous spellcheckers ?

personally, I have 2 years of CVICU experience, took my CCRN, graduate biochem, and I listed a couple of unit-based groups I am in on my resume. I spent more time on my  essay/personal statement than I did for other schools. Funny enough, out of the 4 schools I interviewed for, I felt worst about this one. I was nervous and rambling but I think they could tell I just wanted to impress them. I tried to lighten it up at the end of interview and make some jokes. 

If I can give any advice it would be to apply to 4-6 schools. I have a great GPA (3.9) and all the other requirements/ resume embellishments, but the competition is insane. I was accepted at 1, waitlisted at 2, and rejected at 1. So your best bet is to shoot a wider net.

Great interview story! Your profile is very competitive so it's shocking that you still got waitlisted. Congrats on your acceptance and thanks for responding!

Hey. I hope this helps.

I didn't  have a great GPA (3.3) cumulative. I did get my CCRN but I think my highlights are where I've gone with career. I've been a nurse 7 years, all in the ICU.

And all specialties mostly: CVICU, BICU, VICU, NSICU, STICU, SICU, and Transplant ICU. I've also been teaching nursing students as my second job and have pursued publication while COVID-19, helping standardizing some standards in our hospital. 

My recommendation is to make yourself as well rounded as possible, I think that's what helped me.
 

I got rejected from 2, accepted by 2 and waitlisted by 1. 

But I think it's holistic as a whole. Goood luck! ?

Thanks for the tip on being well rounded! Your varied experience is admirable. You'll be a great addition to the profession. Congrats!
