Nurse Anesthetist ???How hard to get into school?

[Joey]

I am currently a junior in nursing school (on the 5 year plan lol) and i was woindering how hard it will be to get into graduate school. My ambition is to become a CNRA and i was just wanting to pull some info from you already nurses. How hard is it to get into grad school? should i wait a year after i graduate or try to get in immediately? And anything else you guys would like to throw in for me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Joey, you and me both bud!!!

My ulitmate goal is to be a CRNA. It is my understanding that the schools are very competive to get into. One reason being is that there are so few of them(there are none in my home state of Oklahoma).

It is also my understanding that almost all of the schools demand 1 yrs experience in a critical care unit. However, I have also heard that more then 1 year is kind of understood for admission.
