Here’s a picture of me from two years ago on my first day of work as a Wellness Coach!!

This girl had no idea that two years from now, that she’d have applied to PA school

The path is never clear or straightforward! Take the twists and turns with a grain of salt and trust that you’re on the right path!!

Wishing everyone a very happy and safe LDW 🤗

Those of you who know me/have been following along for a while know that this is my top area of interest for my career as a PA. I am ʙᴇʏᴏɴᴅ ecstatic to have the opportunity to learn from an incredible team of cardiac surgery PAs, surgeons, & NPs at one of the nation’s top hospitals. This is my dream rotation y’all and I’m honestly still pinching myself that I’m here! I learned so much today, and cannot wait to see what the next 4 weeks will bring 👩🏻‍⚕️

I CANT BELIEVE IM SCHEDULED FOR THE PANCE! 😱
.
Yesterday I started the process with @nccpa_cert to schedule to take the PANCE exam (physician assistant national certification exam) in December 2020!📚
.
I woke up this morning with confirmation that they received my electronic consent forms and $550 NONREFUNDABLE FEE 💰
.
Next step was to go on to @pearsonstudents to schedule an exam date and time!
.
The best advice I got from you all that I want to share is:
.
These dates are hard to come by and fill up quickly due to covid restrictions!
.
So thankful I got a date and time!!!!
.
but there were literally 2 options in the whole state of Maryland!!
.
.
I cannot believe what I have been working for for my whole life so far is going to be here in December! 😳
.
Now to finish up strong with my rotation and research semester!🤓
.
Graduation is on December 8th and the PANCE is a week after that! 👩🏼‍🎓👩🏼‍💻

**Day in the Life - ER Nights PA** This Thursday 8/27 at 8 PM EST with the Brian Palm from @myparesource! Link in stories to register.

We’ll hear all about his job and what a shift looks like in the ER at night. Feel free to comment with any questions here, and be on the lookout for a question box in stories on Tuesday! **disclaimer** - No certificates (which aren’t supplied for real shadowing) or contact info will be provided. This is for informational purposes. Whether you choose to include it on an application is up to you, and it’s strongly suggested to check with programs first. Virtual shadowing events are not a substitute for in person shadowing.

After too many technical difficulties, the replay from the first session (dermatology with me) is now up on YouTube for your viewing pleasure.

Happy Sunday!!!
You may look at this post and realize that I haven’t burned that many calories today and that my rings aren’t fully closed. But, I see that I got up and moved today - even if it was only a 3 mile walk 🌞
Throughout my undergraduate career I would go in and out of phases with working out. I quickly realized though, that my mood, my study performance and my testing performance were all improved if I made the time to workout consistently
Working out has also served to be such an incredible mental break for myself. I no longer use working out just to lose fat or gain muscle. I use it to clear my head and take a break from the world🥰
Maintaining a healthy workout regime is definitely something I am going to try to keep up with throughout PA school
Comment below some workouts that you enjoy doing!!

It’s so important to thank the people who help and support you. Today, on my dads birthday (Happy Birthday @swaggyb_e !!), I want to take the opportunity to thank my dad for always supporting me. Through all the ups and downs, he has never doubted me or diminished my dreams. Instead, he has done anything in his power to help me achieve each and every step throughout the way.
Friendly reminder to take a moment and thank the people who build you up and support your aspirations!!

preventing burnout ——

Working is HARD. When we were younger getting out of school and being adult always seemed like the ultimate life goal but no one told us it wasn’t all fun and games. Working, especially in any kind of healthcare field, is draining. Mental health is important!! It is never a waste of time to take time off and recharge.

After working 4 days in a row these past couple of days, I definitely needed this day off. Some of my favorite ways to recharge include playing animal crossing, letting myself sleep in, sitting outside and reading, and going grocery shopping. What ways do you guys recharge on days you don’t work?

One of the biggest hurdles as a pre-pa is racking up those PCE hours!

Far before I ever even thought about not being pre-med, I decided to take an EMT class mostly as a way of gaining healthcare experience to beef up my application. I’m so thankful freshman year Jess had the foresight to do so because it landed me my first PCE job! The summer right after freshman year, I took the NREMT as soon as I was approved and started applying to companies around me. I actually started orientation before I even got my Illinois license oops. While I mostly ran IFT (inter-facility transfer) calls, we also did 911 and boy is the rush of driving lights and sirens like nothing else!

I have always been thankful I have my EMT-B license because it gives me the flexibility to work in a lot of different environments, it doesn’t really matter what how you get your PCE. Whether you choose to get your CNA/MA/EMT/RN/RT/w-h-a-t-e-v-e-r, the first step is going through all that training! Then the fun really begins :)

Hi friends! My name is Jess and I’m so excited to part of/contribute to this community :)

I am currently a senior in college and in the process of applying to PA schools after switching from being pre-med for what feels like forever. I started this page to document my experience through pre-pa (and hopefully at some point through pa school and beyond) and bring all my study tips, ez-pz recipes, and everything else in between to you guys!

Everyone’s path to becoming a PA is a little different but we’re all looking for those letters behind our name (in my case letters to go behind my last name Yue ;) hence the username) and I’m here to help others in that journey!

I experienced each type of PA interview and I found the most difficult one the group interview. In each situation try your best to be confident and show them who you are through personal stories.

It’s best to have your personal statement reviewed by a wide variety of people, but MOST importantly, a physician assistant. PAs will obviously be most familiar with the pre-PA application process and personal statement requirements. And it is even better to have PAs read over your essay if they have participated in admission committees before! This will give you valuable feedback from people who could be your future colleagues.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
To make sure my personal statement was the best it could be, I used @myparesource personal statement editing service! The revision service is described on the myPAresource.com website as follows: “A thorough revision and critique of your PA school personal statement. For your personal statement, we focus on CONTENT, which is the most important aspect that Physician Assistant programs look for within your essay. Price includes a single revision by one of our Admissions Experts, complete with recommendations, edits, & comments to ensure you are on the right track before submitting your application. Perfect for any PA school applicant who is confident that their essay is nearly perfect.”⁣
⁣
There are multiple options to choose from, so you can find the best option that meets your personal statement needs:⁣
⁣
1. The Total Package⁣
2. Advanced Revision Package⁣
3. Basic Revision Plus⁣
4. Basic Revision Service ⁣
⁣
⚡️𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐝𝐞 𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐇𝐓𝐎𝐏𝐀 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝟏𝟎% 𝐨𝐟𝐟 𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐭 𝐌𝐲𝐏𝐀𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐞.𝐜𝐨𝐦⚡️⁣
⁣
What sold me the most on this service is that every essay is revised by a certified PA who knows what PA programs are looking for in a personal statement. I had no clue if my essay was anywhere close to where it needed to be & the guidance given through this service was worth every penny! The person who reviewed my essay gave me great advice that included grammar corrections, content suggestions, & praise for the parts she thought were well written.⁣ My essay editor left so many constructive comments throughout my essay. As a pre-PA student, I would have never thought of some of the edits! ⁣
⁣⁣
Your personal statement is so important, don’t be afraid to ask for advice!⁣
