Honestly he asked them and they were pretty vague, I think his science GPA from years prior was hurting him even though he went back for extra classes and got a near 4.0. He’s prior military with quite a bit of ICU experience. He’s also in his 30s now so I don’t know if they prefer younger folks….

Specializes in SICU, ICU.

Hi,  

   From prior posts, it seems that it is more of a personality type interview and done in groups.

Ugh that’s so frustrating. My science GPA isn’t great. It’s a 3.3 but if retaking classes and getting a 4.0 doesn’t cut it then IDK what to do

Third time is a charm! At first I thought maybe they didn’t give him more details on what to work on if they didn’t meet him via interview but the fact that they did I feel like it would be more courteous of them to give him more to work off of especially since his experience sounds amazing
