PA2020MC Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Just now, ERNightOwl said: Got the same email. Wasn’t really planning on it since most school just require the GRE, but I guess I’ll schedule it today I have an interview at another school though already, so this might be unnecessary. I just don’t understand why their basically requiring the GRE and PA-CAT... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RC2017 Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Spoke to someone that works with the admission to the PA program and was told that its a new thing but not required. It won't count against us if we do not take it. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don’t know if it’s worth it to inquire about. If you choose to, contact Nikki directly via the phone number provided on your emails with her. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk So, I think Keiser quite literally has rejected many people that are overqualified for their program. I exceeded all of their requirements, but I am sure they just didnt want to waste their time with someone that will likely get other offers. Just does not seem like a good model for a school... Glad I didn't get an interview looking back considering the interviews/acceptances I have now. Have also reviewed some shady things online that other people have gone through the admissions process and being in the actual program. Hard pass from me. Good luck to you! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RC2017 Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 I remember when I was taking my genetics course over the summer at the fort Lauderdale campus , we were told that the biggest reason people get rejected is because of the way they input their pre-req. Schools only see what you put in to fulfill the requirements and essay portions and if you mess up on that then you get disqualified.

If anyone has more information on this I’d appreciate it! I’ve been studying for a couple days now. I can’t lie, it seems like a beast of an exam. A lot of material to cover, even just as a review for strong subjects. So we’ll see how it goes in 3 weeks when I take it. Hey! How did your PA-CAT go? I scheduled to take it next Saturday 9-26. I have pretty much just been studying for it with MCAT prep, since they don’t have any info on this exam since it’s such a new exam! Would love to hear how you’ve been studying or how you think it went. Wish I had seen this earlier so I could reply. The PA-CAT website does have some “practice” exam questions that I have been using, but not nearly as much preparation as I would’ve liked!

I used all of the content they provided on the website x2. Did the courses in depth and practice tests. Everything else that they do not provide a review on was just factored into the overall score (so small percentages/wouldn’t worry about it). Plus I found all of the genetics, statistics, etc very basic. The things that count the most they gave thorough reviews on. Stick to that and you’ll be fine. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

depressedmotivator Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Got an interview! It's a bit odd though because you have to wait on a Zoom link until it is your turn to interview. So you will have to wait on there until you are suddenly added into the meeting with the two interviewers. They also said the interview will only be 10 min with each applicant which is stressful because you only have 10 min to impress them and show your personality. Good luck to everyone! Hope it goes well! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
