mirnap Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 My stats: 3.77 overall GPA 3.8 science GPA about 1200 healthcare hours as a medical assistant, two years of research at my university , GRE was low but right around and above the fiftieth percentile. I think my personal statement helped me out a lot too! Goodluck Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My GPA might be what kills me; 3.26 science , 3.81 non science, and 3.56 overall. But my GRE was over 70th percentile in all sections and I have over 2000 hours HCE as a medical scribe (I spoke with all schools I've applied to that require experience, and all approved scribing as HCE). I believe my narrative was strong also. Hopefully I'll get some good news from South soon! Congrats to everyone who has received an interview!

Naz26 Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 My GPA was not that high, 3.3 for science, and 3.29 overall, I have a BS in Respiratory Therapy, about 4000 HCE as an RT, and my GRE was around 305. My GPA wasnt the highest but they did see that when I went into my RT Bachelors program I maintained nothing less than a 3.5 GPA there and graduated with a high GPA from there, even though it was a HARD program. They asked me about it too and do take into consideration if you start off a little low but trend up. In my case, I had a couple of lower grades in the beginning but they did see I got better every semester, so they liked that. I also think my narrative letter helped. But the interview was pretty laid back like we all said, its easy to say that now I know how we were all nervous before lol! But Good luck to everyone, hopefully we will hear good news soon!

Thanks for replying! I'm hoping they notice that I did significantly better in my upper-level biology courses than I did in the freshman year courses. Just a part of starting college, in my opinion.

Knhayes Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 This is so strange! My application was verified on May 19th, but I still haven't even gotten an email saying they have my application...I'm starting to worry. Anyone else having the same problem?!

kml10kml Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 I got an email saying they have my application but that they had a question about a prereq...i answered the question and have yet to hear anything in three weeks despite an email and phone call...anyone have any suggestions? I don't want to badger them but I also don't want them to just set my application aside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knhayes Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 I have emailed them and gotten no response. I sent the email on June 2nd. I have also called them and left a message and still have gotten no responses. No one has ever answered the phone and I've called a few times. I'm so sad :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jennifer4293 Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 @scshelton91 I can't remember, but it was around the 21st, I think. Patience is key -- I received an email that they had my materials but wasn't contacted until after the first set of interviews they held. They'll probably be in touch soon!
