ab1395 Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Does anyone know if the choosing an earlier date for the interview matters? Like in terms of a two week difference. Or does tufts choose a certain number of applicants per interview period? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know what the asynchronous vs. synchronized means/their interview style? Congrats on your invite! I’m also a bit unsure of the interview format too. I’m thinking the first two hours are just the basic “get to know the program and ask questions”, while the asynchronous part is where we answer three questions online that were provided by the interviewer. The interviewer wouldn’t be present during that part although we’re answering interview questions. The synchronous interview is probably a one-on-one zoom meeting where it’s more like an actual interview. Just a thought? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this what you mean by under review or did you receive an additional email?? I submitted on 05/27 and got this on 06/06 "We are writing to notify you that we have received all of the required materials for your application to the Physician Assistant Program at Tufts University School of Medicine.

danianderson Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 Hi all, the asynchronous interview means typed responses (3/5 random questions) while the synchronous is a 25 min ZOOM interview with a staff member of the program. I just finished mine. They were on separate days so today was the synchronous interview which was very short and sweet. They said during the information session that it should be the first week of July that this wave hears back decisions. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
