DirtyBlackSocks Posted January 14, 2008 Author Posted January 14, 2008 erm, I'm not currently enlisted anymore. I'm a Disabled Veteran. I've been told by some folks that certain PA programs out here actually give Veteran's that have service connected disability's prioritization in getting accepted into the program, assuming they meet all other pre-requisites. I'll have to look into it further after I've completed my RN training, which is still a few years off. Thanks for all the information guys, it's much appreciated.
ccmedoc Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 Ironically, it is told that the P.A. program is more difficult to enter than medical school. Yeah, I was told PA school acceptance is somewhere in the area of 1 in every 17 qualified applicants, where medical school could be in the 1 in 7 range. Most likely related to the number of medical schools compared to PA programs. Its been a few years, but I doubt the ratio has changed much.
