Hi! I loved this video, it broke everything down so simply so thank you for that. I have a question. I’m currently on a gap year after finishing undergrad in May 2021, and had a change in heart in what I’d like to pursue (being PA school). I realize that the application cycle JUST opened so my question is regardless of deadlines, when do you think the absolute latest is that you’re able to submit your application and still have a very good chance? I have all of my prerequisites done, personal statement done, plenty of patient care hours, and would just need to ask for letters of rec and take the GRE (if my desired schools require it)

I made a CASPA account already, before the cycle I am applying for has opened. Do you know what things transfer over? Since entering everything from your transcript is time consuming can I do it now, or will it all reset when the application opens for the 2022 cycle?

Should you start working on applications after graduating undergrad or while in undergrad a exactly the year out from the year you want to begin (if that year is directly after graduating undergrad) I’m trying to figure out if I should be waiting to finish all prerequisites which I probably won’t have done until I graduate. I am hoping to graduate by December of 2022 or spring of 2023 at latest if I need that time. I still need time to bring up my science and overall gpa prior to wanting to submit my info to CASPA, so should I focus on improving gpa, getting all prerequisites done, and then applying in 2023 to begin in 2024? My school does not offer precise premed as I am a bio major and psych minor so I could use all the advice and help I can get!

Hi Ali! Everyones timeline is different. I graduated undergrad in spring 2018, worked as a medical assistant, applied to school in spring/summer 2019 and started my program spring 2020. I worked during the year that I was applying and interviewing, so I ultimately worked for ~2 years between undergrad and starting my program. This is not uncommon and many of my classmates worked for longer. The application cycle always opens in the spring and stays open until approx. the following winter (depends on the program). You'll need to have your clinical hours before applying for most programs.

Hi! I have a question hopefully you can help me with. I am currently in community college hoping to transfer to a university then once I graduate with my bachelor's I will apply to PA school. I am currently taking prerequisite classes at community college (micro, physiology, anatomy, etc.) will those classes transfer, and do I not take those at university? I am honestly confused because I hear from multiple advisors' different opinions and I feel like I don't have a clear path on my way to PA school from my standpoint since I am at community college. Hopefully you van help :)

The problem of retaking classes is that you have to pay for that out of pocket and its not cheap. I just finished my BS and didn't get great scores but still passed. I can't afford to take them over again so I'm stuck with the grades that I have. I work in the medical field as a paramedic in the ER and been doing this for over 15yrs. I hope that my experience and age can really set me apart from those who don't have the experience that I have. I just have to work on my personal statement and see if I can get an interview for PA school.

shanghai shawty GRE! it’s an exam that a lot of graduate programs require applicants to take! it’s not PA-specific at all! In fact, if you’re still in high school, the GRE will likely be completely replaced by the PA-CAT prior to you applying. PA schools are in the process of transitioning to a more applicable test for applicants (+the GRE has been shown to not be a great indicator of student success anyways). Hope this helps! <3
