ShelliMedz Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 The test is on paper and you won't know your score unless you're brave enough to ask Jackie or ask during the interview. Also, I got invited to the interview exactly one week after I took the test, they sent me an email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I got invited to the interview exactly one week after I took the test, they sent me an email. The email says its computer-based. Maybe they changed the format since computer based would be easier to grade? What was the essay component like? Thanks! =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ally Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I though everyone will be called for the entrance exam, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! =) Yes it is a computer based, the essay will also be on the computer...I think the essay will be like personal statement...that is my guess though...

sdave6 Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I though everyone will be called for the entrance exam, no? Nope, they have said "The MDC PA Program has approximately 500 applicants for the next class... We will invite approximately 250 of the 500 applicants to continue the application process."

apate70 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Hey guys, I received an email to take my exam on April 10th =]. Good luck to you all. For those of you that are taking the exam earlier please let me know how it is! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awhite1208 Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Hey guys! I received my email to take my exam on March 22nd! I'm really excited but also incredibly stressed! I've been studying like crazy, but kind of confused on the math portion. I know they said it'll just be on "basic medical math" such as conversions, however I read a post that the math part was absolutely horrible, and NOT just basic math conversions. Does anyone happen to have any insight on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDCFuturePA Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Under which title did you read this post? Can you copy and paste it on here? The paper they give states that it will be mostly conversions so I wouldn't worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cardthorax Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Wow I was not expecting that many people to respond. At least 50 of you guys that have never even posted on here. I tried to help as many of you as I could. PM any specific questions you have and your credentials if you want more specific info. I can't help you if you're just some Joe Schmo that works at Fed Ex. Good luck to those testing tomorrow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imbillkamal Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 I'm probably one of them that has never posted. Taking exam tomorrow hoping for the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOFLAPA Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Anybody get their grades yet? Mine hasn't changed from what it was immediately after the test. I was told that my essay grade would bring my quiz (multiple choice) grade up, but so far its still the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lml13 Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 I guess we will get the average after everyone takes the test, there is still one more group I'm April 10 to take the test and I believe that is the final group. We shall see what happens from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JpMorgan-PA Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 To be honest they did us wrong..... They got the bulk of the questions from basic anatomy. They were not true to their word about the book and chapters to study. They misguided us, i dont even know how i passed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apate70 Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 What that's ridic?!? We should complain to the school. If they are pulling info from other books that's definitely unfair! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lml13 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 At this point complaining isn't going to help anyone, I think we should of gone out of our way to study more than the material provided. Lets face it if we plan into going to PA school do you really think they will tell you what's going to be on the test, we are expected to have knowledge in this area to an extent. Granted I agree with you guys but remember, this world is not fair we have to adjust and roll with the punches. I was definitely not prepared for some of the questions I got, but I attempted them as best as I could. I just felt like we should of all gotten the same questions, some got 1 math conversion problem I got 5 and others got 10; it's wasn't equally distributed in my opinion. Keep positive and hopefully we come out on top, if not then there's always next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
