Moderator LT_Oneal_PAC Posted April 18, 2015 Moderator Share Posted April 18, 2015 Hey guys! So I did get a paper of questions from the anatomy teacher but he just said this is an example of how he tests. He didn't say I had to know them by orientation but just to brush up on anatomy because he hits the ground running. As far as med terms... You have to get an 80 on the test at orientation but I heard from a current student you can take it a couple times ( not positive if that's true). I am definitely going to look over both of these things but not go overly crazy. Also orientation is sept 10&11 and they said classes should be around the first week in October... But they didn't confirm that yet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk No one has not advanced from getting less than an 80 on the med term test. Looks maybe, but everyone moves on.

FuturePAStudent. Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Thanks! This helps a lot more knowing its mainly medical terms and the questions were a guide. I think I was told mid October for when classes begin but like mentioned before it's not confirmed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mwmwmw80 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Is there a hotel anyone can recommend? And mode of transportation/taxi service? Thank you!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jord1129 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I also have an interview May 29th. Any recommendations would be much appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audmichelle Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I still haven't heard if I have an interview or not. And they are supposed to let you know 2-4 weeks before an interview date. Am I the only one that hasn't heard back yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audmichelle Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 And I called the lady a few weeks ago and she said May is when the last interview date is so I'm guessing that May 29th is the last interview date! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwarre11 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 @Audmichelle I still have not heard back yet. For those of you who have gotten interviews @Jord1129 @mwmwmw80 can you give us a timeline of when you submitted and when they sent you an invite? Also, if you would like to post your stats that would be helpful too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CF0RTUNE Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Is there a hotel anyone can recommend? And mode of transportation/taxi service? Thank you!! I stayed at the Comfort Suites on N Campbell Station Rd. It was a pretty good price in my opinion and only like 7 minutes from the campus in the morning. I think any of the hotels in the Turkey Creek area would be good as they're close to South College and close to a variety of restaurants. I drove so I can't attest to the taxi service but I'm sure you can find a number, ask the hotel front desk, or uber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jord1129 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 For those of you who have interviewed, about how many were in each group? Any advice? Thanks so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuturePAStudent. Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 There's 3 of us in a room with 3 faculty members. If you can I would sit in the middle because at least for me in my group they never started there it was always on one end; that way you have time to think and only one of your answers will been taken by someone else rather than twice. If your quick to think go for an end seat because I sometimes felt like I was just repeating the same as the first person which doesn't help either.

Hopeful.pa Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I had 4 of us and 3 faculty. I also sat in the middle and had to answer the first 2 questions first. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audmichelle Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Are the questions hard?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtameler5441 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Yeah I don't think sitting in the middle helps for everyone. I sat in the middle out of three and felt like I answered a majority of the questions first. Other than that typical interview questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HD90 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 This question is for alumni or current students of the program. I will be attending the program this fall and will be coming from out of state. Does anyone have any cheap apartment recommendations that are close to the school? I am in the process of searching for an apartment and would really appreciate the input. I decided to post to this thread instead of starting a new one since this one probably gets the most traffic. Any suggestions are welcome, thanks in advance!

mwmwmw80 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Does anyone know if they use real cadavers for anatomy? Or if they have options for electives during the clinical rotations? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willber Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 It's actually an anatomy class using computer software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSCH Posted April 28, 2015 Author Share Posted April 28, 2015 There are no cadavers. They used to use them, but phased them out. At the interview, the anatomy professor came and spoke to us. He seems to have lots of innovative ideas, and the students seemed to really appreciate his teaching methods. This was actually one of my deciding factors between South and another school that has cadavers. I was so impressed by the professor, and I know that for myself, cadavers are extremely ineffective (undergrad A&P lab was my weakest biology class, and it was a 100 level; we used cat cadavers, and it worked completely against how I know I learn).
