@statusupdate123 Sorry, I'm just now seeing this. As far as I know, no one in my cohort has taken any significant amount of coursework at Kettering, let alone did the 3+2 program.

Figured I'd drop in and say hi. I'm a current first year student, so if anyone has questions about the application process. life as a KC PA student (especially in the time of COVID), etc. I'll do my best to answer.

Personally I think all this stat comparing is unhealthy and doesn't really mean anything. But here's me: cGPA: 3.10 (but 123 hours of post-bacc with a GPA of 3.79)sGPA: 3.35PCE: ~8500 hours as a respiratory therapistGRE: V156 (73%) Q157 (65%) W4.5 (82%)Shadow: 80 hours split between an ED PA and a cardiology PAVolunteer: 680

I also received an interview invite for 3/13 but have already been accepted elsewhere so I too will be declining. Since @niqbal4 asked, my application was received 24 June. Good luck to whomever gets my interview spot!

There are anecdotal stories of people being accepted the week or even the day before classes start. If I were you I would start preparing everything for next cycle but you're safe to hold off submitting applications until Kettering starts (since it'll be right after when CASPA opens).

That's weird about the texting and I agree that would have been unsettling. I don't like the idea of interviewers intentionally trying to put us in stressful situations to try to throw us off; to me, it's bad enough when I get an interviewer who sits in the room the whole time deadpan. Personally I don't mind follow-up questions since it helps create a more natural dialogue to see how we really are. Here's my take on interviews, even blind ones: it's like dating. On paper someone could look great--good GPA, good hours, etc., but every program has that "X" factor that they're looking

One of the instructors said once the class is set he makes a page and sends out info on where to find it.

Found out today I got accepted from 10/23!!! I live in Middletown and will be commuting. I will consider renting out a room, too.

One of the students told us today that there is no cadaver lab. They do modular teaching but didn't really go into detail on specifically how anatomy is taught. One of the students told us that it's a lot of Powerpoint...

They received my application 24 June and it's been radio silence

Has anyone heard anything? It's been complete radio silence for me.

Finally got the email with the invite. I'll take my CASPer next week and they'll call me to set up an interview day/time. To answer @PAMQtobe, I'm a bit of an outlier: cGPA: 3.10 (but 123 hours of post-bacc with a GPA of 3.79)sGPA: 3.35 (Math/science prereq GPA 3.91)PCE: ~8500 hours as a respiratory therapistGRE: V156 (73%) Q157 (65%) W4.5 (82%)Shadow: 80 hours between an ED PA and a cardiology PAVolunteer: 680

Thank you. They received my supplemental 7 August.

Same! I picked 5th or 7th.
