padeb 15 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Does anyone know if human biology will be ok for the gen bio I prerequisite? I haven't taken gen bio so I was going to see if human bio will cover gen I and genetics gen II. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We were required to take a 4 hour PA-CAT exam in addition to writing an essay. Otherwise no additional testing. Did they notify you before the interview that you'd be taking the PA-CAT? A little nerve wracking since I had no intention of taking that exam Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AspiringFuturePA2022 23 Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 I emailed the program bc I never received confirmation from them, and they said they never received my application so I emailed them the CASPA document and it clearly shows that it was 1) send out to university of tampa, and 2) my status as verified. I would recommend to EVERYONE that didnt receive a confirmation email to talk to the program ASAP because clearly there is an issue with their side of things 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SaschaRochelle 39 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Okay I see several comments about the PA-CAT being something done at the interview? Is that something happening this year too or was that a like trial of the exam? Their website states it's not required so just confused what everyone is talking about!

I think it was required during interviews last year purely as a trial run since the PA-CAT had just finished getting developed and one of the people behind this project was a University of Tampa faculty member (or alum?? I can't remember but they had some affiliation with Tampa). I don't know if they'll require it this year as well since they've been pretty tight lipped about it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CCamp 6 Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 If you're going to substitute courses for the Gen Bio I/II requirements, does anyone know if you're supposed to submit the petition form via email, or are you just supposed to submit the request with your CASPA application? It asks you to list the petition form (can't remember how it's worded) under the "downloads" tab, but is that only once the substitutions are officially approved?

singerdancer 21 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 did you all add brand new experiences to reflect updated hours if you submitted other caspa apps previously? i am submitting tampa late and dont know if i should add a brand new experience reflecting the additional hours i have earned at the same job, wondering if anyone experienced the same thing!

They also have you write total hours by Oct 1 in app questions. Both wouldn’t hurt though Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
singerdancer 21 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I am getting mixed opinions on the website whether or not I need to submit a form for using substituting Biochemistry for Gen Chem 2, and Genetics for the second biology. According to CASPA they stated on their you didnt have to but i just wanted to be sure. thank you for any feedback! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SaschaRochelle 39 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Hope I’m not too late in the game but I just submitted to UT, hoping I get verified by UT in time before 10/1! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
