inspire Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 On 7/7/2018 at 11:36 PM, JD2012 said: So far my favorite thing didactic-wise has been that almost every class is on the same topic at about the same time. So physiology, Clinical pathophysiology, physical diagnosis, and anatomy have talked about the same topic at almost the same exact time. So recently it was caridiology. It was almost at the same time in each class, really helped with getting that information sticking in your brain and connecting the dots and applying that information in physical diagnosis. Cadaver labs are a huge help here. Its one thing to learn anatomy on paper but a whole dofferent ball game when its on a cadaver, especially if youre a visual learner like me. The other day we saw a cadaver with uterine/ovarian cancer, and to be able to touch and feel that is huge. Definitely feels like a privilege to do so. Not many programs are able to offer that to their students. Classmates have been great for the most part and its been super refreshing to be amongst like-minded individuals, especially on an intellectual level. PA school is a whole different ball game, everyone is about helping each other, it isnt cutthroat like undergrad. Lastly, the information you learn here has been much more rewarding than undergrad. All of it is useful and doesnt feel like a waste of time. I second this . Every aspect of the program has been amazing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amh2021 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Hi everyone! I received an email from Judy today saying that my application will be put on hold until my classes are all complete and I report back my grades. I graduate Fall 2018 so I won't have my final grades until December... does anyone know how long interviews go until and is it unrealistic to get in this round since I won't even be considered until then?

I sent Judy my grades as soon as I got them (December) and I was sent an invite shortly after and then accepted so you still have a chance of getting in 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prepaguy23 Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 I’m in the same situation as I’m taking 2 classes over summer. Judy however did not mention anything about a hold. She just asked me to email my grades when classes are over. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD2012 Posted July 16, 2018 Author Share Posted July 16, 2018 If any of you get an interview let me know so I can take you on the school tour after you're done. It's optional after your interviews but I recommend it. As long as time permits of course. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhitPA Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 I just received a phone call but I missed it because I’m working right now. However, I can’t understand the voicemail at all with the callback number or extension. Did anyone else receive a call? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD2012 Posted August 13, 2018 Author Share Posted August 13, 2018 My only guess is since we are on break now that quite possibly invites should be going out soon. Again though this is only a guess. We will be going back to start Fall and the 2nd years begin their rotations on the 20th, so hopefully they get those invites out in the meantime. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
