Are you working in the ER at the VA? How do you like it?

Thanks for your insight. I’ve read a couple of your posts. You matched anesthesia, correct? Did you ever take the MCAT/apply anywhere else? Additionally, how “difficult” was it to get one of the non-primary care seats? Congrats on all of your accomplishments, thanks again.

I’ve heard the same thing. I think COVID threw everyone through a loop so they’ve had to place more APAP students this year than before. Also, are you a Med student or physician? If so, I’d love to pick your brain offline.

The APAP coordinator at Seton Hill said that it is really up to the student. If he/she has ties to a hospital that meets their requirements for a rotation site, they can usually rotate there. Otherwise APAP students can rotate at the same sites as the 4 year students. At least that’s the information I’ve received so far.

Happy New Year! I know there have been a lot of threads regarding the LECOM APAP program. My main question is how difficult is it to set up your clinical rotations? I’m a Navy PA but don’t plan on staying in the military through medical school, and don’t have a ton of connections outside of the military healthcare system. Just wondering if anybody had a lot of difficulty setting up clinicals. Thank you!
