Carmella Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 On 7/11/2018 at 1:44 AM, Assistanttothephysician said: Do you all think this program looks mostly at Prereq Science GPA and Bachelor's GPA rather than CASPA Cumulative GPA and CASPA Science GPA ? I know the minimum standards are set by the former, but I wonder which they use to evaluate us against one another. My cumulative GPAs are pretty thrashed from messing around early in community college, but by the two non-cumulative metrics I feel much more competitive. Same here, I hope they look at the holistic applicant. : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I presume that what this means is that they send out their interview invitations in a rolling fashion, that they send them out in "pools" or not all at once. So I think that some people can expect to hear back earlier than others. My guess is that from the point of their deadline to November certain applicants will hear back first.

I believe from what I read from previous forums that they send out supplemental apps after the interview. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you're referencing what I think you're referencing, but, if not, I still like it. In regards to the actual question, having been a scribe for several specialties including Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation as well as Emergency Medicine, I'd definitely say PM&R is up there in terms of possible specialties. I shadowed a neurology PA for a bit too, which was extremely fascinating. But, we'll see! Edited July 20, 2018 by ConAJ67 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDtoPAC Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Hello Everyone! Submitted my app on 06/05. In looking at the UC Davis PA app page, it says that "The application process may require an interview" and nowhere in the website did it mention an in-person interview as a requirement, only the UC Davis graduate application. Is this information correct? I am getting mixed information Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shelby9595 Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 So did I read tha they won’t send out the suplimental applications until AFTER the first round of interviews? Wouldn’t they want those to do the supplemental before the interview? Anyone know when they send out invites? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it makes sense to only extend supplemental applications to those who are still in the process after interviews. Last year invitations went out in the second week of September I believe.
