Weller92tsi Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Honestly My GRE scores were terrible for me personally. I was open about it and Kevin was great and assured me that Yale takes a holistic approach in the whole process. This is probably the only reason why I got an interview because Ive been completely discounted by not having a GRE above 50% V 142 Q148 W4.0 at other colleges and honestly Yale is a better school so I'm very excited. I also have 12000+ hrs of PCE 3.63 GPA with 3.61 SGPA. 48 hrs of PA shadowing. I even unfortunately have an F on my transcript from 2006. Many schools overlook it because I started my real road to PA school in 2013. I still need genetics which I start this month ending in December. With that all being said we all have our mistakes and imperfections. There is a place for us all and we need to find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vpoca Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 I just learned about this program a few weeks ago and am still working on my application. I plan to submit this week. For those of you who have received interviews, did you upload a CV/Resume? I am not sure if it will be beneficial or add anything that isn't already on the application for me.

I don't remember if this was an option or not. If the application allowed a CV, I am sure I uploaded mine. If it won't slow down your submission, go ahead and attach it.

ChemTeach Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 GRE: Verbal 150 (69%) Quant 157 (66%) AWA 5.0 (93%) Do y'all think the academic interview will include some sort of test/quiz on med terms? Or scenario work? For example, a pt comes in to your cardiology office and states that he is out of pain medication but can't get in to see his pain management dr. What do you do? I'm researching sample questions and different types of interviews. Since we have personal and academic, I'm curious to see how they are different. Any thoughts? Opinions? Insight?

Nice job on the AWA score. Writing quickly is not my strength. I'm also trying to figure out what the academic interview will cover. Given we only have 20 minutes and a few of those are allocated to Q&A, I don't imagine we'll be given scenarios. I'm guessing they'll try to assess our ability to succeed in the didactic year given the online format. I'm expecting questions around self-directed learning, technology competence, etc. This will be my 5th PA school interview. Only 2 have been similar formats. I've learned to be ready for anything.

I've done an MMI type interview, 2 closed format interviews, and one that was truly bizarre. I have a spot in an on-campus school starting in January. I'll give that one up if this opportunity works out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did everyone get that email? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I am in the same boat! I have emailed Kevin about it expressing concerns that I submitted before Aug 1 and am concerned. (Especially since i interviews are starting). He doesn't seem concerned, but didn't really have an answer for me.... Did you contact anyone???

PharmD Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Same boat, I submitted in December 2016, a month after the application opened. Contacted Kevin last Friday and he said everything was completed and in queue; when I brought up issue of those who submitted a couple of months and got interview, he just said I have nothing to worry about. Maybe I won't need an interview rather and admission letter lol! Not a great GRE though. cGPA 3.98, sGPA 4.0, verbal 145, Quant 146, AWA 3.0, HCE over 50,000hrs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosebud Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 I emailed him about it 2 weeks ago and didn't receive a response. I was thinkin of calling him today. Getting a little worried. I received an email the day I submitted my application, titled "Application Submission Alert" but from reading the posts it sounds like there was a second email going out later. Is that correct guys?

PharmD Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Am guessing, they are overwhelmed and the order of application received doesn't matter. Hopefully, all applications will be attended to. Good luck to everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
