Physician Associate (PA) Chester University interview

Does anyone know if Chester has an MMI or panel type interview for Physician Associate postgrad? I've searched everywhere and I can't find any information on it. Some advice on which kind of questions come up would also be great!

Thank you!

Hello @Wowowow16

I've spoken to the Chester Medical School who have said that they currently use a modified MMI via Teams. The interviewee is given MMI type scenarios but these stations are presented by one member of the Physician Associate team (panel of two members of the School one lead and one scribe) instead of the interviewee moving between stations.

I hope this helps!

Hi @University of Chester

I applied fairly late (April) to the Physician Associate Studies at Chester.
I've seen that people have been accepted/had interviews and I'm wondering when I'll hear back on UCAS either way, as I haven't heard anything after I submitted my application.
Thank you!

Hi,
Congrats on your offer! I don't suppose they told you how many people are accepted onto the course?

It was roughly around that number. If they haven't replied to you by now maybe you're on the waitlist
