Lovepriya Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Hello Everybody! I made a quick phone call to PA admissions yesterday. I was told that they haven’t started application review, therefore, we have not received any type of confirmation. Hope this alleviates a little bit of stress! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayburt27 Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 I just wanted to share my stats! I find it comforting to share and hear about other peoples' backgrounds! I am a first time applicant to PA school. Graduating this December. I am 21 years old. Turn 22 on July 16th, haha. cGPA 3.83 sGPA 3.79 HCE: 2500 hours as pharmacy tech PCE: 1400 hours as CNA GRE 298 (I was VERY sick taking the GRE. MIGHT retake.) I found the GRE really difficult for me. I am shocked, too, because I usually do well with standardized testing! Feel free to share yours! I know it’s comforting for me to hear and share stats! Good luck everyone! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck everyone! Second time applying. I am 28, 29 next month. This is considered old to PA schools when it comes to your courses so keep an eye on that haha.

(5 years at the same high school, helped to build a robust sports medicine program that was lacking in policies, procedures, etc) GRE: 300 on the nose twice, but same here did not do great even with more studying and a retake (my math is atrocious).

Orthopedics, ED, oncology, surgical oncology, thoracic surgery.Shadowing MDs: 30 hours of clinic and surgical observation in orthopedics which also included observing PAs.

I coordinated surgical and clinical observation for our staff including ATCs and DPTs. - Clinical Preceptor for athletic training student interns for two years. Helped to educate AT students in hands-on learning environment. Leadership in college: - Student Ambassador, gave tours and hosted prospective students to sit in on classes with me. - Orientation Leader, assisted a group of 20+ new students during their first days at college by coordinating activities and outings around campus and off-campus. - President of the AT Club during undergrad.

AspiringPAS Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Applied a little later than I was hoping for due to my GRE getting pushed back. Submitted 7/8 and CASPA verified my applications 7/13. Received email from High Point this morning that they received my application! Exciting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like last years cycle started to get interview invites around 8/8-8/13. COVID could be pushing things back for this cycle, but it could potentially be as early as this or next week!
