For the people that interviewed, how did you guys prepare for it. I have mine on August 9th. How was the overall experience at University of Bridgeport? Really appreciate the input. Thank you and Good luck 🙂  

I thought about my answers to the most common types of questions PA schools ask, and I also thought about examples from my PCE/volunteering that I could tie in there. I also think it's helpful to read a PA interview book beforehand to get a feel for the types of questions/how you should answer them. I read "The Physician Assistant School Interview Guide" by Savanna Perry and thought it was helpful. 

Also, make sure that you practice answering questions with someone. If you have a PA you can practice with, even better. They will be able to point out if there's anything distracting about the way you answer questions/give you tips on what you can do better.

Overall, the faculty at Bridgeport was super nice, and I felt like they asked fair questions. Congrats on the interview and GOOD LUCK! 🙂
