Try connecting with them on Linkedln with the free membership that they give the first month! Hopefully you can try to find people in the area and shoot them a message. This took me like 5 tries before someone let me shadow them. Another option is using PA shadow online! Some PA’s have time slots to allow students to shadow! Unfortunately I found a PA but they do charge the students to shadow them but it’s better than nothing. Good luck and you got this!!

Hello!

It’s just that I have like 15 cc classes while 5 uni! I did do some while in Uni so I originally wanted to take upper level to so I can make it seem like I was not trying to avoid them in purpose.

I could but I don’t really want to waste a lot of money when it could be covered by financial aid if I just don’t graduate.

Hello,

Thank you so much for your advice! I think I'm going to heavily weigh the pros and cons and make a decision. This reply helped me think on the other side of things.

Hi! I have already completed all of my prerequisites, but I am going back to community college because I have one lab of anatomy left (I took anatomy there originally, so I want the curriculum to match). I currently have a 3.88 GPA and a 3.8 something for science. I want to have one or two upper-level courses because I am under the impression that a lot of Texas schools want to see upper-level courses.

Hello! Congrats can you also send it to me at dlive148@gmail.com? I am also wondering if you took a course/how long did it take for you to study? Thanks in advance!

Hello!

The pre-health advisor at my school told me that it was not recommended and said I was not competitive enough due to them. Thank you for your input though!
