positivealways Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Thanks for your suggestion. But to prove about my English - currently I am an Instructor for Anatomy and Physiology and I have completed my English with good grade. At least if had got an interview it would be nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjbowers Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Feb. 27th. I'm in Chicago but originally from San Diego. Super excited! Good luck to those that got an invite. To those that didn't these May seem like hollow words but don't give up. Ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PA324 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 No interview or rejection letter yet here in SoCal. The suspense is killing me, good luck to everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kismet Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Keep applying. Hang in there! It took me multiple attempts but it was worth it! Thanks Joelseff. I'm sure I've printed out an extra postcard I can probably use for the next application. ;) Just need to figure out how I can afford to repeat my courses that are about to expire.

Try again next year. What other schools did u apply to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

positivealways Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Joelseff, Thanks a ton. Should consider more programs next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Joelseff, I would really appreciate if you could give me some insight on the interview questions as well as on the written portion. What kind of question we'll be asked.

Joelseff Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 I can only say regarding the interview JUST BE YOUR SELF! try to stay away from canned responses as they will see it a mile away. Also make sure you know all the details of your app and PS and KNOW why you want PA vs MD, DO, RN, RI, BAKER, SCHOOL TEACHER ETC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mash Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Congrats to all who received interviews! Where are you guys staying (hotel-wise)? Mine is February 19th and the hotel prices are pretty hefty. Any recommendations welcome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvrc Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 @mash - Congrats on the interview, mine is Feb. 19 as well! I've been looking for hotels and they are pretty pricey. I may be staying at the Days Inn, about 4 miles away. Hope that helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mash Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 @rvrc - Congrats to you, too! I wonder if there's something going on in Palo Alto or the surrounding areas that weekend and they hiked up the rates. I decided on just staying in Redwood City - it was a lot cheaper. Have you heard any good tips about the interviews? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiseUp Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Rvrc, try checking the rates on Tuesday or Wednesdays, cheaper to book on those days rather than trying to book on Weekends, Mondays and Fridays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvrc Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 @mash - Thank you! I believe the Days Inn is in Redwood City. It was definitely a lot cheaper. @RiseUp - Thanks! I'll check again tomorrow, hopefully it'll be cheaper! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rvrc Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Thank you @RiseUp! @mash - I haven't heard any good tips specifically for Stanford's interviews...just what joelseff has posted earlier. I've received some insight from friends and coworkers who had interviews with other schools. When do you arrive? @TATAbox and I are planning on trying to meet up somewhere the night before! You're more than welcome to join! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mash Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 @RiseUp and @TATAbox - thank you so much for the invite! I think I'm going to have to pass. I'm just going to take it easy that night :) Maybe we'll see each other at the interview, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thereisaplan Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 For those of you who have gotten interviewed: Is the English requirement just a typical ENC course you are required to have for most universities? I just want to ensure I have that down and if the AP credit is effective or not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joelseff Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 IIRC, the English requirement is English Composition and Critical thinking/advanced composition. These were (are?) your 2 English requirements for lower division GE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mash Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Does anyone know which faculty / administration personnel usually lead the interview? Is it different with each interview? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
