PrePaGal4 Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Hi guys ! Just had my interview this past week and I wanted to confirm that the interview will consist of 20 people. You get split into two groups. One group is taken first for the interview one-on-one portion and the other group stays for a medical writing assignment and gets a tour. You have three 15-min interviews with a faculty member. A fellow student stated earlier in this thread that she received more behavioral than traditional. I personally only had one critical thinking question, basic traditional questions, and then just conversational. However, it really does depend because I had peers who got mostly behavioral questions as well and hardly any traditional. So I would just prep regardless. The faculty and students are amazing, so I personally really enjoyed my interview. Best of luck to everyone ! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hmhguy95 Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 @PrePaGal4, do you know how many more interviews they plan on having? If there’s 20 per session I have a feeling that there aren’t many more interviews left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it ends up being around 300, which is what they do each cycle. Picking from a pool of 1000-1500 applicants. From the 300 they will accept 48 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clbeard Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 I got a call on July 25th for an interview on either August 15th or 20th. Very excited! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were pretty specific that they will not offer unless those are completed. I asked if they would hold the offer and she said they would essentially skip you and you could lose out if they fill the class before your stuff is completed. Unlikely, but they mean business !

mattjmartin28 Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Does anyone know if the CASPer test is required in order to apply as well. I don't see anything mentioning it on their website. But as I am in the process of sending it to another school, South University pops up as an option to send the scores to as well. And that just has me questioning it. Thanks!

PrePaGal4 Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 I don’t believe they need it. But I did send the scores to them regardless since I was required to take the test for another school. I thought what’s another $10 lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattjmartin28 Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Cool, thanks guys. I just took it by the way. Silly test in my opinion. But now I will send it to them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rfo1234 Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Did you guys submit Casper prior to your interviews or was that done after? Couldn't find info on their website although I got an email saying that my app was complete a while back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAJourney148 Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Casper does not need to be complete to get an interview invite! They just asked me when I got my invite call if I had it scheduled. Then they asked everyone at the interview if they had completed it and I think everyone had by then. They just need your scores in order to make a decision after interviewing it seems!
