Has anyone taken the Kira Assessment? 

I did mine. It was mainly personality and scenario questions. There was one clinical question at the end. I think it was 7 questions.

For the Kira assessment..Do you see the question and have to answer it immediately? Do you have only one take? Thanks!!

I haven't done mine yet but from what I gathered in the email it has to be done in one sitting and it said it would take 30-45 minutes. So I assume they give you questions and you record your responses all together. But im not sure. I am doing it today or tomorrow so I will update later!

You have 7 questions. You get about 45 seconds to 2 minutes prep time after viewing the question then about a 1-2 minute response time. After each response, you can wait to see the next question if you need a break in between.

To previous applicants. How long after deadline did they send out interview invites? 

I've heard from others currently in the program that they sent interview invites between June 15-30 then interviews happened early August with Acceptance/Declination sent out mid August. Hope this helps!

According to the email I got, they changed the dates up a little bit this year. Interview invites will go out by July 19. Interviews will be August 20-22 via zoom.

Has anyone heard of when they would start sending out invitations to interview? Also, does anyone recommend any resources to help with interview prep? I have some serious interview anxiety and trying to find ways to improve

The email I received said that they'd send out interview invitations by July 19th. I don't know if that means they'll send out declinations of interviews also. Just says "interview decisions". As for interview prep, I'd just prepare for anything you listed on your resume. Patho and pharmacology related to the disease.
