Yoliegirl5 Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Just thought I’d post my stats so future classes can see what people had. I landed an interview but who knows about an acceptance! Interviews weren’t horrible but it wasn’t easy either. Undergrad: Bachelors of Health Science 3.76 (cGPA per caspa is actually 3.58, thought it was 3.6!) Replacment GPA: 3.75 Prerequisite GPA: 4.0 PCE: 8000 as a physical therapist assistant Volunteer: ~200 (with school and teaching experience) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, during our breaks between individual interviews, (I heard) we will be hanging out with current students, who will give their thoughts/opinions on us after the fact! As a current student, this last part is not true. We do not report back to the faculty about how we feel about the candidates. We do not have a say in whether you get in or not. Also, whether or not you go to the social events has nothing to do with your acceptance either. Glad to see a bunch of you at the interviews this weekend. Good luck to all!

I think my interviews went pretty well. I know I had a great time and loved being on campus. But, I did wake up the next morning instantly thinking about two questions I totally could have answered better. LOL Tell me thats completely normal, please.

Felt as though my first interview could have gone a lot better but the other two, in my opinion went great. Will have to see how the admissions committee felt about it though, I guess lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistachios Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 @pk325 I overall felt my interview went well. However, like @DarcyJ I too felt that I could do somethings different. But then again, there is no perfect response. I think the group interview was a bit challenging just the fact of interacting with so many candidates at the same time and finding the right balance to some of the tougher questions. I did enjoy my interview a bit too much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you guys think your interviews went? Not that well, especially after seeing how poised and accomplished everyone in my group interview was. Definitely flubbed a few answers pretty badly, but I’m hoping they looked past my nervousness and saw how excited I am at the prospect of attending EVMS (far and away my #1 choice program) and my passion for working with patients. I won’t be surprised at all if I’m not accepted, but am still hoping for the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know secret groups are that way, but didn't think closed groups were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
