whimpa Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 I would like advise from someone attending or accepted in lmu's pa program. I have recently decided to become a pa (hence my username) and i have a BS in biology with a minor in chem. I only applied to one pa school, which is lincoln memorial. My question is about the a&p requirement here. I was never required to take human a&p for my major, but i did take vertebrate anatomy and animal physiology. Both courses had labs and both were 4 semester hours. In addition, both courses that I took were a higher course level than human a&p I and II. Will these count toward human a&p I and II? I have contacted Owens in the past cocerning this, but she never really gave me a straight answer. She just said they evaluate courses taken. Also, has anyone been accepted into LMU's PA program without taking human a&p? On their website they say human A&P or a combined anatomy and physiology course. I am A little confused about what they mean by this. There are many types of anatomy and physiology courses out there. I turned in everything oct 22 and recieved confirmation the 31. Any advice would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chenderson48852 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 I am a second year PA student at LMU and I would suggest taking Human A and P just because the A and P class at school is very difficult. It is only 10 weeks and it is nice to already have an overview of all of it before taking the class. I dont know anybody that was accepted without that class.

cinntsp Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 You should post your program-specific questions in the school's forum section: http://www.physicianassistantforum.com/index.php?/forum/641-tennessee-lincoln-memorial-university-pa-program/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whimpa Posted November 13, 2013 Author Share Posted November 13, 2013 @chenderson48852 Thank you for answering my question, I really appreciate it! I know it has only been 2 weeks since I turned in everything, but I am so nervous. I have not heard anything from LMU and I know they are handing out acceptances, which leaves less seats open. If I don’t hear anything by January, I will have to take human a&p I and II somewhere. thanks again for taking the time to answer my question :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmwilliams43 Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 I heard that LMU sent out a letter saying they were no longer pursing applications, but I never received that letter. Does anyone know if this is true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
