New: AI Mock Interview

Rehearse with a panel before you face the real one.

Three AI interviewers: a program director, a CRNA on the clinical faculty and a current SRNA. Vague answers get probed. Clinical answers get drilled deeper. Just like interview day.

  • Answer out loud or type
  • Scored report card with an admissions decision
  • A stronger version of every answer, in your words
  • Clinical corrections when you get something wrong

Your first full mock interview is free with a free account. Cycle Pass and Monthly members practice as often as they like (up to 3 a day).

Questions

Good to know

Is the Program Finder really free?

Yes. Every program page, the finder, the Readiness Score and the Roadmap are free. A free account saves your progress.

How current is the program data?

Each program page shows the date it was last verified against the official site. We re-check every program each year and watch admissions pages for changes in between. Always confirm with the program before applying.

Do I need to schedule calls or coaching?

No. Everything is self-serve and works on your phone, on your schedule.

What does the Cycle Pass include?

The full Interview Dojo with mock interviews, AI mock interviews with a scored report card, the Statement Workshop, unlimited program tracking, side-by-side compare and the full ICU Refresher.

Is the Fit Score my chance of getting in?

No. It shows how well your profile matches each program's published requirements, plus distance and deadline timing. Admissions also weigh interviews, essays and things no tool can see.

Who built this?

A practicing CRNA who went through the process and has worked in anesthesia for over a decade.

How does the AI Mock Interview work?

You sit in front of three AI interviewers modeled on a real CRNA admissions panel. They ask behavioral and clinical questions, follow up when an answer is vague, and drill deeper on clinical reasoning. Afterward you get a score, an admissions decision, what to fix first, clinical corrections and a stronger version of each answer. It is a practice tool built by a practicing CRNA, not a real admissions decision. Your first full mock is free.
