I applied to Ft. Lauderdale with an overall score of 312 but my math was a 152 which is 47th percentile ): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The average accepted is 50th percentile in all so 47th percentile shouldnt be bad.\ A buddy of mine on the other hand had a 298, with everything under a 50th percentile, and his writing was a 2.5. He had a 3.8 GPA and he was told to retake the GRE. I have a 309 GRE, Q - 45th V-80th 4.0 writing and have an interview at Ft. Laud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall you saying you had a sub 3.4 GPA and I have a similar GRE as yours, but I haven't heard back yet so just curious to compare all of our stats!

Our score distribution is very similar and when I saw that my math score was 47th but everything else was higher than I expected, I got too nervous to retake it because I didn't want to risk lowering Verbal or Writing. Anyways thanks and Congrats on your interview!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Namelessrd Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 I think that the previous posts about in-progress prerequisites are definitely true. I have two courses in progress right now (to be finished in mid august) and so far from Ft. Lauderdale I have received a phone call asking me to date my supplemental app because I signed but did not date my application. Then another phone call notifying me that my application is complete and under review. Then about 2.5 week later I received an email from an admissions counselor asking me for my grades for these summer classes. She said I could just email her what grades I got and she didn't even need a transcript or anything. I had to tell her that they wouldn't be finished until august. And I haven't heard anything since.

mohsderm2016 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I just submitted my supplemental application for Ft. Lauderdale today! I wasn't expecting to have to repeat experience again on it :(. I feel like my overall volunteer hours are low (around 200). Anyone know if this school is big on volunteer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think at this campus. But I can tell you it's probably a big help for FIU's program since their focus is molding its students to treat South Florida's diverse population.

nvocgka Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Saw this on their website: Quote Applicants must have a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 and a minimum science GPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 grading scale at the time of application in order for your application to be considered. Successful applicants in the past have typically had both cumulative and science GPAs of 3.4 or higher, GRE score (verbal, quantitative, and analytical) in the 40th percentile or higher in each of the three categories, and letters of recommendation from individuals with which the applicant has had a professional working relationship in a healthcare field. Greater consideration will be given to applicants with prior patient-contact experience. So you don't necessarily need a 3.4 sGPA... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One was even told to look for another career, and that same applicant is now only 6 months away from graduating as a PA. *shrugs* Do you know if all the Nova campuses only consider applicants with above a 3.4 science GPA or is it just Fort Lauderdale?
