I actually deferred a year and will be starting in the Fall due to my wife finishing up her degree, but I can tell you about the interview. I had my interview with a faculty member and a student, which I liked the most. They will ask you a variety of questions such as how do you deal with stressful situations, if a classmate is not pulling their weight in class how would you approach that person, if you and another student are doing clinicals and one student has a problem with the CI, what would you suggest they do. The timed essay was very easy, having some prior experience in the field helps to some point. I loved the mock tutorial, it gave you a chance to really analyze the study that was given to you and pull pieces of information that would be pertinent to your patient. The best advice that I can give you is to be yourself number one, relax (everyone is there for the same reason and nervous too), do some research about the program (they like to know that you are interested in going to their school and know something about their program), take a resume just in case. You should be fine, trust me I'm still nervous about heading back to school, its been three years so I'm trying to study some of my anatomy again. If you have any advice for me or hear from any other PT students on what to study let me know. Hopefully we will be classmates in the Fall. Goodluck and let me know if you need anymore advice.
