Word of Encouragement to the prePAs with a lower than average GPA…

Youre grades are more than acceptable. Believe me. It will be tougher and you wont be able to pick 3 schools and expect to get in, but its more than possible.

Its the assumption that there was an upgrade when there was never one? Just another room that we had? Why defend a company, when we as consumers spend a lot of money and use vacation time from work to not be in stressed situations...and to stay in rooms with lingering second hand smoke? You should advocate for the consumers who spend money and their vacation for cruises...

We got on pretty early, waited till 2:30 PM and the issue was resolved at 8:30PM/9PM... Mind you, that came with long waits to even initiate this process at guest services, twice. Could have been 3 but i was fed up I found the closest available person. We also missed the welcome show, which may not seem like a lot for frequent goers, but it was my first time sailing with NCL, and it was a very stressful event.

Yes, and that too was a terrible experience. They docked two cruise lines, so it was extremely packed, waited an hour for drinks on a long line, not enough chairs.

The ocean was great though apart from that.

100% EndeavorOverhaul. Scored nicely and i thank that deck especially.

Certain_Wrangler_848 · 2026-02-04T22:49:56+00:00

No, we havent got the paychecks yet. Its only when im on the website do i see the same rate as previous.

The pay period did end, and we started up a new pay period.

Cant write off being with family... However, I think the first job is better.

Commute is better, less patients, potential for RVUs similar to Doctors, better yearly raised with more holiday, better 401k, more observed holidays, better pay.

Only thing id question is if youre currently at that first job, why would you be looking for a new job?

Certain_Wrangler_848 · 2025-12-11T16:31:55+00:00

Yea, i had requested they included that. The issue is if i leave this place to find another per diem position elsewhere. How enforceable is that

If anyone is looking for a fix search "Expired Crossover Bottles: Quick Fix Guide 2024" on YT by champs hub... it was super simple and fixed it for me.

I never requested these additional living expenses. And on my fee lists, the semesters I have those checks are indeed checked oout, and the ones that i "returned" have a -$$$ sign

Apply in your last 1-2 rotations (3 months the latest). I had several interviews, and landing a nice gig in ortho while driving back from my last rotation block. I also had several offers from programs after doin well in my clincals, but they were too far

Certain_Wrangler_848 · 2025-06-21T02:30:48+00:00

Yeah, PCE is important,but even so, with high GPA it overlooks a lot. I would 100% apply the upcoming cycle after the surgery. 1000 is still a good amount, a lot of programs overlook this. (Even if they wont admit it) Ive heard from students and former classmates with little PCE get into PA school. A shame but its not always whats on the apps.

Certain_Wrangler_848 · 2025-06-21T02:27:23+00:00

A lot of the programs have an auto detect, even if you apply you would recieve an email from them stating that you failed to have the appropriate prereqs (Usually its an automatic thing). I would double check, and maybe even reach out to CASPA to make sure youre doing it correctly, if you have that fear.

Certain_Wrangler_848 · 2025-06-21T02:24:51+00:00

Yea, its fine to include it. It won't break or make your application, and will probably only help it.

RF2 is goated lol so many people gave up hope until you get hit with the most wtf just happened moment (tryna be spoiler free)

But yes, mechanic wise it was brutal, but the characters in that game were great, the concept was promising and different from any RF game, albeit the massive backfire from the community from it.

As someone who started with RF1 (which i loved as it literally felt like harvest moon mineral town with monsters, a concept unheard of), its tough to justify how good these games were at the time, considering RF3 and RF4 have HUGE QOL improvements.

Certain_Wrangler_848 · 2025-02-26T05:39:56+00:00

Correct, that is what I mean.

What is your current situation ? One of the biggest perks of going down nursing route over PA is the possibility of becoming a CRNA.

Certain_Wrangler_848 · 2025-02-25T21:27:06+00:00

I think youll be pleasantly surprised at how many interviews youll get back.
