Hi guys, I really want to become a CRNA, however, my GPA isn't the greatest. I have a 3.36 overall GPA. I have 8 years of nursing experience - 1 year of med/surg, 5 in labor and delivery (2.5 of it being travel nursing) and 2 years of current experience in CVICU. I have my CCRN, NRP, ACLS, BLS, PALS, Fetal monitoring. Thinking about getting the CSC and taking a graduate level Stats course soon. I also precept on my unit. GRE is 315. I have over 80 hrs of shadowing CRNAs in different units (peds, OR, OB, outpatient). What else can I do to become more competitive? Do you think I will get in with those stats? Has anyone gotten in with similar stats and if so, what school?
Looking for honest constructive criticism and suggestions
Thanks for you inputs.

Hi, I saw this post when I was answering your question in the other post. I recently has a friend that got into the same school as me. He got his 1st choice clinical. he has very similar stats as yours. actually yours is somewhat better. I think you can definitely get in because he did. But you need to do good on your interview, which he did. Please do not get discouraged. this path is hard but you can do it!
