I was wondering if anyone out there has applied to UAB. Does anyone know when interviews are held? I heard that they will be later this year compared to last year.
I interviewed for the Jackson component this morning!!!!
I was so keyed up and worried over what types of clinical questions I was going to be asked....not a single one!!!!!
"What sparked your interest in becoming a CRNA?"
"How are you financially prepared for CRNA school?"
"How will you/your husband handle the 9 months in Birmingham?"
"What aspects of your ICU experience has prepared you for CRNA school?"
"What do you do to stay current on treatments/meds/therapies/etc..."
Not at all what I expected... Jackson changed it up this year and did panel interviews. Basically I sat at the end of a verrrrry looooong table and faced down 14-15 people (one MD, the rest CRNA's)
Of course, I was the LAST interview of the day!!!!
I'm glad it's over with...Now the nervous waiting and mailman stalking begins....
KC :w00t:
So, I finally gave up with the post man ... it has been 2 weeks and nothing.
I couldn't handle the anxiety anymore so I called UAB today to let them know I was under the impression that they would let us know one way or the other, but I have nothing... apparently some letters were not mailed out and were sent out late last week.
...But the good news is they let me know over the phone, and I am going to UAB this fall!!!! I need to go scream al little more :w00t:

I have been working all week to try and keep myself from annoying the mail man... and to stop myself from overanalyzing everything that was said in the conversation. The interview was so short. I still don't know what to think! I was surprised that they did not ask any clinical questions, wasn't sure if that was a good thing or not. I was the last interview of the day, which made me very nervous. I am hoping for the best! They said they would mail out letters mid week, so as of Wednesday I have wanted to throw up every time I walk out to get the mail...:chuckle. What did you think about the interview? Did you think it was the same type of questions as previous interviews?
