ChristineAndersonPrePA Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 7 hours ago, Amati said: Hi Christine! My pre- interview meet and greet was from 9AM-9:30AM PST. You should receive an email with your interview zoom link the day before your interview and the email will give you information about the meet and greet (that's how it was with mine). I don't know if they will be making any changes with the schedule so this is just for reference. If you have any more questions I would advise you to reach out to Chapman. The admissions team is really nice and friendly. Hope this helps! Good luck with your Casper test and interview! You’re so right I just emailed them now!! Thank you for the advice!

Any advice on interview format/questions/things you wish you had known before/what made you stand out?! I'm so nervous!!!! Congrats on receiving an interview invite!!! My advice would be to attend the Meet & Greet to talk to current students, especially if it's scheduled before your interview time. The chill vibe and talking to the students really helped me to be less nervous. I also got to know more in-depth information about the program and faculty which helped me to come up with good questions to ask my interviewers at the end. In regards to the interview, it was a two-on-one virtual format. There was a good mix of common job interview questions, PA/healthcare-related questions, and personal experiences. I recommend reading the Physician Assistant School Interview Guide book by Savanna Perry to prepare. They just want to get to know you so don't be afraid to add some humor and be yourself. I think relating my answers to stories about patients was what made me memorable. Make sure your internet connection is solid and limit distractions so that your interview won't get interrupted and the interviewers won't have any problems hearing your answers. Good luck!!!! You're almost there! Edited August 3, 2020 by ProudPrePA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard we should keep it to one page two at the most but it just is not enough room. Did you apply? Also has anyone heard if they are going to postpone interviews with the COVID-19 situation or will they be doing them on line? For the resume section, it asks to " include your 1,000 hours of patient contact experience and PA shadowing hours" just to clarify is this a breakdown or just overall amount? How much are you changing previous resumes to adjust to this requirement? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My resume was mostly the same, but I also added my shadowing PA hours into two separate experiences because I had 2 different shadowing experiences. I personally didn’t put my hours for each experience because it is in CASPA. I just made sure everything was included and put the range of dates with explanations of each experience.

Good luck to everyone who’s waiting for a decision and to those who are interviewing soon Okay cool I received that too and initially I wasn't sure what to think of it since no one has mentioned it on this forum yet! Good luck to you as well!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEJ97 Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 To anyone who has already interviewed, was there an essay portion included? I've heard from past students that they have had you write an essay as a part of the interview process. ALSO, how long are the interviews?? would love to just gage how long it may take!

It seems like a few previous posters didn't get their good news until a few weeks later, so hopefully we'll find out soon! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
