SupremePA Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Hello Everyone, It's my first time applying to PA school and I am very nervous. I was wondering how competitive my application would be based off my stats alone (uGPA 3.63, sGPA 3.71, 2800+hrs CNA Pt Experience). I am a first-generation African-American male with a bachelors in biology. Current PA School List: Bay Path University Drexel University Franklin Pierce University MCPHS University (Worcester) Northeastern University Quinnipiac University Sacred Heart University Wichita State University Westfield State University Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sas5814 Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 I work with a great PA who is.... a first generation African American who went for it and has had great success. He worked hard, studied hard, positioned himself well, applied for and went to PA school. You miss 100% of the shots you don't take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anachronist Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 GPA is good, PCE is good, if your GRE is decent and you don't fumble the LORs or personal statement then I'd say you're a very strong contender. BUT, if you don't get in this cycle, don't get discouraged! The second time around is a lot easier and with the added experience you'll be more prepared than this time.
