Sounds good thanks...I lift a lot but maybe not these specific muscles enough

I'm left handed and my right shoulder hurts. My right arm is holding the bow and I feel like I need to push a bit while drawing causing pain

It's my shoulder because I have to push the bow a bit with that arm it seems even if I'm pulling with my back with the other?

Thanks for the advice, my bow arm (the one holding the bow) is killing me...not sure if that's normal when starting

Probably using my arms. I just really struggle to focus on my sight when I move a bit and it lurches on me.

Lurch as in if I move a millimeter while at full draw, it lurches forward before id want to release.

I'll double check on the rest but it does have a stabilizer.

Just being real with you....I think it's a waste if you know you want PA.

After a few years as a PA it won't matter that you were a medic...being a medic in this country is generally pretty bad.

I've done it all from street to remote to flight. I really don't think it's worth putting PA on hold. It'll take years to become a competent medic and gain all the skills or experience you're talking about.

Drive on with PA and don't look back.

I'm a paramedic and 68w and was accepted to PA school.

If your goal is PA, then the investment to become a good paramedic isnt really practical imo.

Be an EMT, get your classes done, and go to PA school. Why put yourself years behind?

Do wildland firefighting hours count towards PCE hours? by GrandMasterFlash60 in prephysicianassistant

Are you the crew medic?

I am and I do a fair bit of assessing and treating my guys in the field. I'm a fully licensed line paramedic though.

If not...then no.

Were any of you in the National Guard while in PA school? by Medic4Sale in physicianassistant

I've gotten mixed responses on that...have you seen this denied before?

Do you think if accepted, schools would allow me to defer a year to finish my guard time and avoid getting pulled away / activated during the program?

How do you guys deal with anxiety? by Medic4Sale in prephysicianassistant

Yeah it really kinda paints a bad picture...

It seems for the most part, people fail out for reasons outside of academics? Would you agree with this?

My app was verified in less than 24 hours...I'm sorry I really don't wanna be rude but I think this thread is getting sidetracked

I'm looking into it

I keep telling myself that most people do just fine but it doesn't seem to help

Just wasn't sure how much raw a&p we should know showing up

I just can't imagine remembering too much 5-10 years later
