I had poor science grades prior to nursing school. I got a C in anatomy and a 3.79 GPA.
My overall GPA is 3.5 I am currently taking a graduate level pathophysiology course and how competitive I might be. Any suggestions on improvement are welcome. Thanks in advance.
Comments for CRNA stats?

I have a question

What school did you apply for your Grad level courses? I can’t find one at all. Is it online? or classroom?

You’re fairly competitive

You are right inline with other applicants. Your stats don’t stand out to me as either great or bad. I’ve heard of others getting accepted with stats similar to yours.
I would STRONGLY recommend that you get your CCRN and it’s always best to do more than the minimum, especially with something this important).
You didn’t mention what type of ICU experience you have. Read this section on ICU to make sure you’re doing all you can to maximize your experience: https://www.all-crna-schools.com/nurse-anesthetist-school-requirements.html#section3.
It’s great that you’re taking grad level classes. That will prove to the admissions committee that you are capable of doing grad level classes (contrary to your lower science scores early on).
If and when you get invited for an interview, I strongly recommend that you listen to “How to dominate the interview”. Find it here: . It’s the most helpful material I’ve seen on the internet for preparing you for a CRNA interview.
Lastly, I wish you the best! Congratulations for pursuing your dream!
