afgayle Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Hi, I dropped out of nursing school realizing that I hated it. I took a year and a half off to find out what the right profession would be for me. I decided to switch to PA after some extensive research. I am now pursuing a degree in biology and hope to apply to PA school after I graduate. My question is how will PA schools look at me dropping out of nursing school? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenmood Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 They probably won't care. Just have a concise explanation for why you chose to stop that program. Realizing that you "hated it" is a terrible answer. Never diss another program or profession in your application or interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
