brigin.zachry Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 i guess it was intimidating for me because i like the one on one individual interview style better. i just kept getting nervous listening to other people's answers and waiting to say mine. otherwise that it was not bad. the faculty are all super friendly and the only advice i can say is be yourself. i was probably the least qualified patient care hours wise and i am still in undergrad but they said that my personality really showed through in the interview and they thought i'd be a great fit so just try and relax (i know way easier said) and be yourself!! that's all they are wanting to see For the individual interview was it a one on one or a MMI?

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk It was one on one with the panel that interviewed you and it's only to tell you whether or not you're in, rejected or waitlisted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brigin.zachry Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 It was one on one with the panel that interviewed you and it's only to tell you whether or not you're in, rejected or waitlisted So your interview is based on the group interview and a medical terminology quiz? On my itinerary from the interview invitation it says a writing portion... I'm guessing that's the med term quiz? Thank you for all the help btw this is my first cycle applying and I really appreciate the insight!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk What is supposed to happen is: you will take a medical terminology quiz and a hand written essay while waiting between your group and individual interview. Good luck, I'll see you at the interview, I'll be one of the current students shuffling y'all around. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mollylou89 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 When did you submit your app? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk It was complete 10/7! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greetingsfuturePA Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 I submitted my application a week ago-I hope I wasn't too late. I have a gre score of 155 and 157- and 4.0 in writing. Over 2000 hours and counting in direct patient care as a nurse tech. About 150 in shadowing a PA. I am bilingual. But I have 1 C in one of the prerequisites. I hope that doesn't affect me too much. From people that have been accepted-words of advice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greetingsfuturePA Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 I keep hearing different things. Do you need biology II? Will MBIO lab classes count? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janay Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 If there's anyone wondering about GPA requirements, I just called checking on the status of my application and I was told there is zero hope for acceptance since my GPA is 5 hundredths (0.05) below the requirement. So good luck to everyone else! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8404PA Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 I keep hearing different things. Do you need biology II? Will MBIO lab classes count? I had a little difficulty with this. It came down to my professor sending the program director the syllabus Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greetingsfuturePA Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Thanks for the response! Does that mean I may still be contacted for an interview? And then the direcor decides? Or should I have the syllabus sent right away? Can I ask what class you used? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can I ask what class you used?I called and talked to him about my application, he told me that I was rejected because I didn't take bio2 even though I had, it was just called something else. So then he told me to have my syllabus sent to him. That director though just retired. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futurePA2492 Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 May I ask the GPA requirement that they told you?

greetingsfuturePA Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I believe the gpa requirement is 2.75. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLynn Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I believe the gpa requirement is 2.75. Yup that is what is says online. However, when I went for my interview they told my science GPA was relatively low for what they accept (I have a 3.48). If you meet the requirements though I would not worry too much, they genuinely take everything into consideration before making their decision.

dacosta13 Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I spoke with someone from admissions today and even though their gpa requirement is 2.75, he said they weigh academics heavily. Long story short, you need a good gpa bc even if you get an interview w low gpa, chances of actually getting accepted are extremely low. And if your gpa is low he said get into a masters programs get good grades and keep applying! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My gpa wasn't great but I was a rock star in the interview. That ability came with a lot of practice and mock interviews. Also Andy Rodican's book.
