sunsfan92 Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Hi guys! Who else is applying to Midwestern right now? I'm in the process of retaking my GRE to (hopefully) get in or close to the 75th percentile. I've heard midwestern is huge on GPA and GRE. Good Luck to anyone else applying!!

welchAl Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Do you mind me asking where you found that out (about the emphasis on GRE/GPA?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natalie2018 Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 I'm applying there this year too! Good luck on your GRE Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunsfan92 Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 Do you mind me asking where you found that out (about the emphasis on GRE/GPA?) I can only speak for Midwestern compared to other Arizona schools but the minimum GRE cut off is higher than both schools and the average score of matriculated is higher than the average for all PA schools (60 V and 75 Q I believe) also-from students I've talked to they tend to accept people with little to no HCE but high GRE and GPA but not vice versa. Just an observation, maybe I'm just totally psyching myself out because my GRE score is lacking. What do you guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure they make exceptions depending on what else your application has to offer but generally I would agree they tend to be more focused on academic strength and less on HCE Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDaniels Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 When I applied last year with average stats I was surprised to hear that the only thing lacking in my application was my gre score. They told me to shoot for 60th percentile in all 3 areas. Most schools told me that applying mid July was too late so their response surprised me. Hope this info helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwustudent Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 I was accepted with V50-Q80-A56 so I don't think MWU has a high cut off for GRE scores. When I spoke to a few of my classmates about GRE, they all mentioned how it seemed like MWU-AZ did not care about their scores either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you're right because my GRE score is the one part of my application I am not confident about! I am retaking in 3 days though and if my real score is close to my practice tests scores I would be in the average range of matriculants at MWU so I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

mandrew1 Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Hi everyone, I've found a very interesting report from the Physician Assistant Education Association (PAEA). Every PA school applicant should know this information. You can sign up for the FREE report on andrewrodican.com. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jGreen Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I received an email today stating that they have put my application on hold for a potential interview invitation. They said this should be considered a positive result. I'm excited that they're at least holding for consideration. Interviews are from September through February.

Thirteen44 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Congrats! That's definitely exciting. When were you verified by CASPA / complete for MWU if you don't mind my asking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jGreen Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Congrats! That's definitely exciting. When were you verified by CASPA / complete for MWU if you don't mind my asking?

Thirteen44 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Nothing for me yet, but I'm down the timeline from you a bit. I was verified 7/14, complete with MWU on 7/24. Fingers still crossed :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDaniels Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Same email for me as well. I also received it last year but they wanted me to improve my gre scores. They interviewed all the way up to April a month before school started. They interview a lot of candidates. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
