I will be applying next year and was wondering if those that received an interview can comment on if they took organic with or without a lab and if they took biochem? Also, wondering when everyone submitted their app that has received an interview so far? THANKS GUYS! I never took Organic Chem, but I did take biochem.

I feel weird leaving this blank because they have reserved like 3 pages of it for the application however I have listed all my experiences on CASPA other than my most recent 1 week of PCE since I submitted it. Did other people leave this blank too? Thanks Hi! I left mine blank too, I also felt a little weird doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raraslash Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Hey all, I'm gonna be interviewing on 10/10 and I was wondering if there was anyone else interviewing on that date that might want to get to know each other. I figured it might be nice to be around someone we at least know a little bit on the stressful interview day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ksand21 Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 I just canceled my interview date as I got into a school I loved elsewhere, so hopefully they'll contact someone soon for an open spot! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the preview day in March a current student told us it was MMI style. Interviewers have not read your file prior to the interviews. I don't know what kind of questions they ask but be ready for the classic questions like "why PA?" of course. I would also prep for some current issues in healthcare questions and ethical questions. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

svwich Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Hey all, I just had a question about the interview process for those who interviewed this cycle. 1) I noticed earlier applicants said they were interviewed by two people per room though the website currently says it's a "panel". I was just curious what it actually was. 2) Were the questions more situational/ethical type of questions or what type? 3) Lastly, if you do not use the full time allotted (6 minutes per question I believe) is that counted against you, if your answer comes up "short"? Any relevant information would be really appreciated, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any relevant information would be really appreciated, thanks! I interviewed last cycle, so I will try to help. 1) It's two people per room (either faculty members with/without second year students). 2) Questions were more situational. 3) I do not believe finishing early is counted against you, but I also do not know that for certain. At five minutes, someone will knock on the door to let you know you have one minute remaining. I will be interviewing for this cycle as well, and I'm curious to see if they'll ask different questions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
