I heard from previous students that clinical sites are a bit annoying as they have a very wide range of sites that can go as far as grand rapids, herny ford, and many other locations

Here is what the student said “EMU PA Student here! We do a lot of rotations at St. Joe’s Ypsi. We also do them throughout Michigan. We use Trinity Health/IHA in different locations (Livonia, Chelsea, etc). We also use Henry Ford health system (Detroit, Bloomfield, Royal Oak, etc). Rotations are also at ProMedica hospitals and health system. Someother places classmates have been include Grand Rapids, Battle Creek, Adrian, Tecumseh, Jackson, Canton, etc. “

Have you heard about how they are during the didactic year?

[FuturePAAH]

Can anyone provide any insight of what kind of questions were asked during the Kira assessment. Were they more PA school related or generic question to see how naturally you can make conversation. After Casper I’m very nervous about doing the Kira assessment since it’s very similar

They weren't like Casper, which is more ethic's based. They were more generic but related to PA school. Sorry if thats too vague.

How long is given to answer each question? 

[FuturePA2410]

30 sec to prep and 1 min to answer. It’s different every year tho!
