First things first only accept here if you are not confirmed elsewhere. The professors are extremely unorganized and say the info has been planned for years just waiting for the students when actually has not. There are numerous contradictory issues in the slides and presentations meaning that the class is currently Googling information to find out the actual way you would do things in procedures. The professors also do not hire actors or use the mannequins you will be shown on your tour for your procedures. This means you are then paired up with a classmate randomly to do the physical exams. Including the current session we are in now which requires you to lift a colleagues breast tissue to get a pulse. You are not able to opt out of this without fear of retaliation for your grade and must consent to your classmate proceeding with the exam, even if they are male. This means that as a female I will be expected to consent to this even if I feel uncomfortable with another student touching me. The reason why most schools use actors is to maintain that level of privacy with the students. While I am excited to become a PA this program does not encourage a safe collaborative environment. Hello, thank you for the insight. this is very concerning and I just received an interview invite from this cycle. Has your experience improved?
