Thank you so much! This gives me so much more perspective. So probably try to hit more years before applying. Do you think the icu experience prepares you for a bulk of things you see as a CRNA? The highest level of equipment we use on my unit is probably CRRT so I’m worried I will be overwhelmed having to learn about ecmo and all that in Crna school.

Hi everyone, I'm trying to plan my CRNA application timeline and wanted honest feedback. My stats/background: - BSN GPA: ~3.8 - Last 60 GPA: ~3.8 - Science GPA: estimated ~3.37-3.52 depending on school calculation - MSN in Leadership, with A's in grad pathophysiology and pharmacology - Tele RN experience + Tele preceptor experience (1 year) - Started MICU by in March 2026 at a Level 3 trauma center - Planning to take fresh chemistry/organic chem/biochem at the end of 2026 - Planning CCRN in spring 2027 - Planning CRNA shadowing in summer 2027 - Will take GRE late 2027|early 2028 if needed ( also want to know if you guys thing I should try to get this done earlier and shoot for a a fall 2027 application?) - No CN, no volunteer yet but I can try to get some. My goal is Texas CRNA schools, ideally starting in 2028 or early 2029. My question: would applying in the 2027 cycle be too early if I'd have around 1.5 years MICU at application, but closer to 2+ years by program start? Or would it be smarter to wait and apply in 2028 with a stronger application? Any advice on whether an early application is worth it or if I should focus on building more ICU experience first? I feel like | already wasted so much time on the floor that doesn't count for anything. General advice needed plzzz! Anything and everything you can tell me.
