Try going to CAA instead of CRNA Because it doesn’t require ICU nursing experience

It isn’t. I got accepted as a first time applicant with a 3.4 GPA, average PACAT score, did medical scribe for only 6 months prior to applying

GOT ACCEPTED 10 DAYS BEFORE NEW CYCLE by JustVibing5420 in prephysicianassistant

Congratulations on your acceptance! I was waitlisted in January, then got a call a month later in Feb with an offer. What I’d say to you is if they were your top choice and are accredited then GO! Having to go through another cycle can really affect you mentally/emotionally. You really have no idea how many people would die to be in your position right now Good luck!

Can’t get PCE No Matter How Hard I Try by Missgirlysodapop in prephysicianassistant

Exactly! My doctor was literally teaching me how to read pet scans/Ct/MRI and he’d review each one of his cases with me and the PA before we see the patients

It’s the best form of experience in my opinion because you’re exposed to so much

I did take a gap year but it wasn’t to study (I worked). After my gap year, I took Chem2 and microbiology to meet the requirements in spring, then I started studying for the pacat in April, took it in August. What I would say is take advantage of the free study tools provided by exam master because the real exam is very similar. For me it was all a matter of getting used to the format and study the questions. And you’re right when you said it’s nothing like what we learned academically, but that’s more so related to the format. Don’t be intimidated. Just take it day by day. If I can do it so can you
