I thought some of the pre-PAs looking into the profession might want to know what it is like to start working your first job out of PA-school. Check out my post below: PAJourney - What It's Like to Work as a New Grad PA

I recently wrote a blog post describing a typical day for me in PA school. Hope you find it useful and that it gives you an honest understanding of what PA school is like. I did one post for didactic year and one for clinical year. Enjoy! Didactic Year Clinical Year

Hi all, My name is John and I am a graduate of the 2017 class. Just wanted to stop in and say good luck to all of the applicants. You have chosen an amazing career. If you are questioning whether you are up to the challenge of PA school, know that I felt the same way. It is a difficult path but a rewarding one. Penn State is a particularly tough program, but you will graduate feeling like your degree is worth more for the experience. I couldn't be happier with my decision to attend (and I am still shocked they chose me). I also want to direct you to my blog, PAjourney.com. It chronicle

PENNSYLVANIA: Penn State PA Program 2016-2017
pajourney replied to PennState_PA_Program's topic in PENNSYLVANIA: Penn State
Don't give up Cecilia! If you do not get pulled from the waitlist, ask the program for feedback on what you can improve going forward. Do the work to make changes and apply again. Showing that kind of determination will really bolster your chances next year. Good luck!- 158 replies

PENNSYLVANIA: Penn State PA Program 2016-2017
pajourney replied to PennState_PA_Program's topic in PENNSYLVANIA: Penn State
Hi all, I am a member of the class of 2017 at Penn State. I haven't posted on here in a while, so I thought I would take an opportunity to direct future applicants to my blog at PAJourney.com. I created the blog as a way to give back to students who are interested in the PA profession. It contains a journal of my experiences in PA school as well as advice on the application/interview process. In general, I try to make every post advice-driven. I hope you find it useful and encouraging on your own journey. If you are waiting to hear back from Penn State, best of luck to you. Candidates hav- 158 replies
