"By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail."
Benjamin Franklin
Congratulations! You've been invited for a physician assistant school interview. You've spent the past several years taking classes, volunteering, obtaining medical experience, shadowing, accomplishing your CASPA application, and writing a killer essay to get here.
However, your work is not over; in fact, it is just beginning. The weaker applicants have been ruled out, and now you will be going up against the best of the best. You have two choices at this point: you can try to "wing it" and be another faceless drone at your interview, or you can prepare and become the "Perfect Applicant." This book will help you become the latter.
Written by Andrew J. Rodican, PA-C, author of the bible for PA school applicants: Getting into The Physician Assistant School of Your Choice, and a graduate of the Yale University School of Medicine Physician Associate Program. Andrew is a former Yale admissions committee member, and has been coaching PA school applicants since 1996.
How to Ace the Physician Assistant School Interview (First Edition) has ranked #1 on amazon.com since 2011. This book has already helped thousands of PA school applicants get accepted.
This SECOND EDITION is completely updated and revised. It includes everything from the first edition, in addition to all new material:
How to become the Perfect Applicant. The fact is, every PA program has a certain type of person in mind when it comes to who they will accept. The Perfect Applicant can demonstrate specific Qualities the program values most during the interview.
How and where to find these Qualities for any program. HINT: they are not only on the program's website!
How to master the "Tailoring Method" to become the Perfect Applicant: Discover a precise formula you can use to infuse Qualities into every answer, for any program.
m PA = (A+Q)
Also included in this book are over seventy of the toughest interview questions and answers most commonly asked by the admissions committee: Traditional Questions, Behavioral Questions, Situational Questions, Ethical Questions, Hypothetical Questions, and Illegal Questions. All the answers to these questions incorporate the Perfect Applicant formula.
There is also entire chapter dedicated to the Multiple Mini Interview (MMI). The MMI is becoming more common, and unlike any interview you've ever faced. The purpose of the MMI is to evaluate interpersonal skills (soft skills), professionalism and ethical/moral judgment.
So why go it alone? Take advantage of the author's years of experience. Every program has their own interview format, and Andrew Rodican has interviewed applicants from almost every program in the U.S.
