Ashjw210 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 I applied back in early December and just got an invite to interview last week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apy Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Question: for those of you who have received interviews or received rejection letters... when did you apply? I applied pretty late and have not heard anything, so I think they are going through everyone who applied before me. Just wanted to see when you all applied to see how far away I am! Thanks!!! I think I applied sometime last fall, like by November all my apps were turned in, and I just received an interview today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerbug Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 I received an invite to interview on 4/27! I'm ecstatic right now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jyc010 Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 My application was submitted the beginning of February, but I was asked to retake the GRE to improve a score. They didn't get my scores till after the deadline so I'm pretty late in the game too and just now received the invite. You should hear back soon! Good luck!!! wow they actually told you what to improve on? They didn't mention anything and I already got a rejection letter. I submitted in December too. Your GPA must've been competitive. Congrats on your interview invite and goodluck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My application was complete Jan27th and I heard back/interviewed in Feb. It seems like everyone is being processed on a different timeline. Hang in there!

southernmedlife Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 To those of you who will be interviewing, here is a comment I gave to another applicant earlier today: Congrats on getting an interview. First thing -- Relax! Mercer was my top choice when I was applying, so I imagine how nervous/ anxious you must feel. You've managed to overcome the biggest barrier which is getting an interview. Once you have been offered an interview, you have proven yourself academically more or less. At this point the admissions committee has reviewed your file and you have sparked their interest. They now want to know who you are as a person, why you are passionate about medicine, and how you will fit into the Mercer PA family. I encourage you to examine how you stand out from other candidates. What makes you unique? What experiences have you had that are meaningful or rememberable. Stress your hands on experience in the interview. Know why you want to be a PA, and why you are prepared for 28 months of strenuous schooling. Hope this helps. Best of luck!

Sidekickgypsy Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Hey guys, Congratulations to those who've been accepted! Has anyone received the following email after their interview? "The committee has requested additional time to review your profile. We will notify you when the Committee decides to take further action. The anticipated timeline is by the end of this month (April) or late May". I interviewed on 3/30. Had anyone who interviewed previously received this email? If anyone else had interviewed on that date, did you hear anything? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenixj Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 I received that email last year. They want to wait and review other applicants before they make a decision with your application. That's all due to the rolling admissions. You will probably be notified at the end when they are conplete with interviews to receive a final status.

estellel Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Can anyone who has already interviewed tell me if mostly behavioral/situational questions were asked? I'm interviewing in a few days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenixj Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Estellel, I dont think it would be fair to give you that info. I will say that you should want to practice all types because they have a long list of questions to ask and they decide which to give you. Your questions may be nothing like my questions and this can put you at a disadvantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
estellel Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 phoenixj, sorry, didn't mean to sound like i was trying to get secret info. i just saw on other threads people discussing things like that so i figured it was ok. nevermind and thanks anyway :) can't wait to visit and meet everyone!!!

Spe747 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Hey estellel, If you want to shoot me a personal message on this thing, I would be glad to help you with what types of questions they may throw at you. Want you to feel prepared and not nervous at all. It is a lot of fun and relaxed. You got this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mgar123 Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Denied via email this afternoon at 2:01 pm, strangely just 2 minutes after opening up CASPA 2016-17. The struggle continues. Congratulations to those who made it, and interviews are continuing. More good news for some! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
