PrePALife0987 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 For the interview invitation email, the "group question-and-answer session with a faculty member" means that we are asking the faculty member questions about the program? Or does the faculty member ask us a question (interview style) and we have to respond in a group setting and each provide insight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a fellow chiro assistant so that would really help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still pre-PA but I'd like to hear about what schools accepted your chiropractic assistant job as PCE. I am a fellow chiro assistant so that would really help So I looked generally (just googled "Do PA schools accept chiropractic assistant work as patient care hours") before I got the job, and I read that they did! So I went with it since this was a job I could do without any additional certifications. I would double check with the program about schools requirements to know for sure. But unless they explicitly say that Chiropractic Assistants don't count I'd say it's good to apply with. I only applied to 5 schools and got rejected from UTSW and UNT without an interview, I'm unsure if this was because of my chiropractic PCE or due to other aspects of my applications. None of the interviewers for the 3 different programs I did interview with said or asked anything about it. However, in my personal statement I tried to include how being a chiropractic assistant would benefit me becoming a PA! I wrote something along the lines of how getting to know a more holistic approach of health and the body would change the way I thought about patients and their overall wellness as a practicing PA. Hope this helps and good luck applying to PA school in the future! Edited January 19, 2021 by PAandSlay2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lizzzzzzyg Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 (edited) For those who have interviewed-- did they say if they would specify on your admission letter which campus (San Antonio or Laredo) you were admitted to? Or has anyone been offered admission to Laredo? Edited January 29, 2021 by lizzzzzzyg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
