eeb Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I have an interview January 15th. I am going to go, but is it even worth it (besides just practice/experience)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atsu-2016er Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I say there's always an opportunity to make them want you in the class. They love you on paper, make them love you in person to make a place for you in the class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mic87 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 What's the point of the fluff classes of mind body spirit in the curriculum. Sounds like quackery. There should be more sciences. This is not to discount the humane side of medicine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atsu-2016er Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Are you aware of the topics discussed in BMS? If not, I'd suggest you ask in your interview in that exact tone if you are firm in your conviction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannydude57 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 What's the point of the fluff classes of mind body spirit in the curriculum. Sounds like quackery. There should be more sciences. This is not to discount the humane side of medicine. Your right, there is no point in having fluff classes. Unfortunately, you assume by the title that the class equates fluff and lacks science. Every other medical and P.A. school program worth its salt provides similar content found in this class under different titles. Medicine is more than just the function and dysfunction of various bodily systems. Medicine is about understanding the patient as a person, about ethical conundrums, about legal responsibilities, about interdisciplinary communication, about addressing tough questions such as when to start hospice. Questions that typically are not covered is hard science classes such as clinical medicine, pathology, anatomy, physiology, etc. What this class entails is an excellent question you should ask during your interview...

phil87lip Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Anyone know how large ATSU's waitlist is and how what number they got up to last year? I am waitlisted and all Bonnie would tell me is that I am in the top half of the waitlist. I am just curious to see what my odds are of getting in. Any info would be helpful.

atsu-2016er Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Rest assured, it's a process and a long wait. One of my good friends in the class was set to go to Hofstra and then found out two days before orientation that she was given a seat. Being an AZ native, she decided to stay. Another found out less than three weeks before school started and had to make the move from Colorado. It can happen when you least expect it, so all I can advise is being patient. Best of luck!

turboman Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Thanks atsu-1016er, I have a quick question. Do you happen to know if they did extend this upcoming class of 2017 from 50 to 70 students? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atsu-2016er Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Yes, they did. 70 is the normal number of students for the program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil87lip Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Has anyone on the wait list been accepted yet? When I talked to Bonnie, she said that they haven't extended the program to 70 yet, but that they were going to after all the interviews were done. I was just interested to hear if anyone who was on the wait list, or pending open seat list got in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
