I just received an interview at Mercer on Feb. 4th. Does anybody know what the interview is like or what I can expect. Any input would be great. Thanks.

Hey, I interviewed at mercer back in dec.... we had two 15 min interview with faculty. Be able to say why you want to go to mercer. Also mercer is big into community service so be able to talk about that. I also got asked questions such as`what 2 fields of of pt are you most interested in` `what is your biggest success, failure` `talk about a time u displayed poor communication` we also had a group interview.

I heard back from mercer about a week later with an acceptance. Good luck!

I will also be interviewing at Mercer. Given that it is a Baptist school, should I expect any questions regarding religious preferences in the interview?

 

[mimmerma]

UteFan, religious preference never came up at any point. I got accepted and I am not Baptist. During my visit, I did not get the sense at all that Mercer is a religious school...its nothing like Loma Linda which forbids alcohol, is closed on Sunday, and makes you attend religious functions.

I also had an interview with Mercer on Feb. 4th. Has anyone heard any word from them?

 

[UteFan]

I haven't heard back yet. I emailed them Sunday night, but haven't heard back from that either. I will probably give them a call on Friday if I don't hear before then.
