meredithmiami Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Ok, so trying to decide if I should be relieved, depressed, happy or horrified - got a 75 on the test which seems to be not good enough to be sure of an interview and high enough not to count myself out of the race [emoji3]. Test was appropriate I think - nothing I was shocked at other than myself totally blanking in a few areas. I asked some people their scores... highest I heard was an 85 lowest was 60 (I probably asked 10 people.). I was prob in the 1st 25% of the people who finished so curious to know if taking more time translates to higher or lower scores. Everyone I spoke to was really professional and awesome - so at the very least I'm honored I was invited to take the test with a great group of people. I will remain optimistic!

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk You never know. It all depends on the average and how people did. If the average is low you probably have a good chance. From previous posts some people have gotten less points after retaking the exam and viceversa. We just have to wait and hope in your case the average is low. Also, as you can see having a high score doesn't guarantee anything. So every step counts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llira004 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Does anyone know how they average your score base on the essay and test? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prepahope Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Does anyone know how they average your score base on the essay and test? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk We can only estimate from what people post here or what other people say after the test. But you wont know your average or how you did on your essay until A. You get an interview or B. You get a reapply email in May. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patobe2019 Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Hey Guys! Is today the last day of exams???? Anyone know of other grades out there? Just to get an idea of an average ?? Hope everyone did amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meredithmiami Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Anyone else want to share their scores? And maybe the date/time you took your test? I know we have a lot of lurkers on this board who read and don't post - I met two really nice ones yesterday :) Since we are all in the same wait and see position it might kill some time.......... And, I feel like my score can go either way with the interview vs. no interview so would be great to see what other scores came out of my session (all sessions really) I took mine on 2/22 in the 8 am session - score of 75. Have a great day and good luck to everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinecrest Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Im sure today has the last two exam sessions. I heard only 300 students applied this year, so 50 students per session morning/afternoon from 2-21/2-23. And yes it would be nice for applicants to post their scores. GPA-3.6 Test-85 Experience- 2 years @ Hospital Shadowing: 3 PA's 300+ hours 4 LOR 4 Surgical specialty shadowing experiences Second time applying, got interviewed last year but my nerves killed me.

Patobe2019 Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Awesome. GPA-3.75 bachelor's in biology Test- 86 Lots of scribing and shadowing experience! Honestly, I think the most important thing is killing the interview, and also depends on their perception of you at the interview. So many qualified applicants don't make it past the interview, so it makes it so nerve wrecking!!! good luck to all of us haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheems Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Above 75 look like good candidates for the interview!!!???????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph PA-S Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Took my test! Unfortunately I have to wait a week for results because I took it through scantron. :( but I feel REALLY GOOD about it! And those who got 75 and above I wouldn't be disappointed, you guys are most likely getting an interview! Now the waiting game continues! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
