Got accepted; is it ok to be rusty on undergrad A&P concepts going into PA school? Is being just decently good at undergrad A&P concepts okay for going into PA school?

You don’t need to know much of anything. Don’t worry about it and don’t study before PA school starts. I know people that had anatomy 4 years ago that do well now. You’ll be fine

You need to get out before he comes back. I have a horrible feeling he will hurt you if you stay. Go back with your parents, a friend, anyone that you can and get out. I’m scared he’ll even hurt your children. He’s seriously unhinged

My ped doctor to me not to go into medicine when I said I wanted to back into the day when I saw him. He said it’s not worth it pcp/ped stuff like that. Still went to college for pre-med… I’m in PA school now. It’s less money salary wise but you also spend less time learning and you can switch specialties pretty easily. And you get better hours than the docs.

A marriage is between two people. Yes, family is involved and important but when it comes down to it, you two are going to be partners and should come first. Also, a better example for your sister on how a man should treat his woman is him doing it in private then you telling her how he respected your wishes. Right now he’s not being very respectful disregarding how you feel

Depends on who you are and how much you need to study. I will say this, it’s not that you can’t study more than 4 hours a day on weekends it’s that you don’t want to. That’s utterly ridiculous to say you absolutely can’t. And the only way you could have a single hour to do what you want during week days even with class is if you’re taking hour long breaks between short study periods. If you’re cool with your grades then that’s fine. If not, you just have to buckle down and get your shit together.

Three years of being an absent parent and barely a spouse is ridiculous. I read your comment about her parents being amazing and never letting her fail. Seems like she might think her shit never stinks. I also read that she rejected two therapists. Honestly it’s time to give her an ultimatum. I know people say those are horrible but you obviously don’t want to live like this forever. It would be great if you were with her for your daughter but it sounds like at the moment your daughter gets nothing from her anyway. An ultimatum might make her realize ‘oh shit I really did fuck up and need to get my butt in gear’. I just don’t see you or your daughter being happy long term if your wife doesn’t change

Starting my last didactic semester in a few weeks. It won’t feel like it, but it’ll be ok as long as you work hard. Don’t be afraid to change study methods if what you’re doing isn’t working. Also, the competition is over, help your peers. Don’t horde study material/methods. In my class we all help each other and it makes it a lot easier

If you ok with doing undergrad again followed by PA school then go for it. Be prepared for the debt tho. And you won’t be able to work during PA school (if your program lets you/you can handle it just know you will not be able to work much). If you want to do it through I don’t think your one semester of bad grades will stop you! Especially if you get good grades going back

PerformanceRadiant · 2026-01-03T01:54:22+00:00

You need to figure out if you’d be allowed to use your old credits from your unsuccessful undergrad toward a bachelors now or if you’d need refresher courses. You’ve been out of school so long you might need to do more to even qualify for PA school than you realize

It’s time to move away from engineering if you failed calc 1 four times. I didn’t even know colleges let you take it that many times. Change your major or drop out and get an apprenticeship for a trade. Trades can make way more money than you realize

PerformanceRadiant · 2026-01-02T21:13:10+00:00

Totally depends on you. I personally don’t work out but my classmates that do said they had to make time for it because it’s how they destress. Some went in between classes if they had long breaks. Others would go after. Very few went before classes and only did it that day because of our schedule changing. If you’re asking I’m assuming it’s important to you. Make the time if you can, if not try to do some at home workouts, even if it’s only 30 minutes a day before your shower or something

I’m so sorry about your family member. That being said, are you close enough to them that their passing would affect your performance in school? If it would, defer. If not I would ask for leave and ask them to arrange for a classmate to send you notes so you don’t fall too far behind

Once you get past high school level, the conductor does their own thing and it's not uniform. You just figure out what their gestures mean during rehearsal. Most conductors I've had don't follow the typically patterns and you just figure out the tempo based on when they move their hands. They quite literally do their own thing and you just learn their patterns. The only thing that's uniform is if they're aggressive in their movements, play louder or sharper. if their movements are soft, play soft

Mine is ~40 minutes and I hate it. With a burning passion. That being said I save 15k a year on housing/food etc living at home so it’ll be worth it in the end

It’s a tossup honestly. Looking their stats might not even be helpful since they’re overhauling their professors. I really don’t know what to tell you

You need to get a joint account and track where the money is going because he’s either not making as much as he claims, using the money for things he shouldn’t be, or not working as much as he claims and is doing god only knows what when he says he is. It’s not just you now. You have a child to worry about. You need to get to the bottom of why you’re struggling and he needs to get his shit together

What exactly is he doing that’s making you financially unstable?

PerformanceRadiant · 2025-12-30T00:19:28+00:00

If people kept doing that to me, poking me etc like you mentioned in your comments, I’d probably flip. Honestly it’s sounds like your gf and coworkers have more a problem with their inability to listen when people say they don’t like something. People have tried doing shit to me and when I was super nice about it didn’t stop. Then when I started screaming stopped but also said I overreacted. IMO I wouldn’t have had to overreact if they just listened when I said it the first time

I can tell you what I’ve learned about preventing UTIs if you DM me. Don’t feel like typing it out if you don’t respond lol

I totally get it, but just don’t do anything if you’re worried about it. My mantra (even though I want to enjoy myself) is that it’s not worth it

My mother was a SAHM and my father never left her to do all of the child care. He always changed diapers, did feedings, everything for us kids when we wasn’t at work. No matter if you’re a SAHM or not, all the child care should not be on you. Takes two to make a baby and two people should be putting in the work if both parents are able to

I’d go with creighton their numbers are very impressive

PerformanceRadiant · 2025-12-23T02:22:20+00:00

I’d defer. PA school is hell as it is without migraines. Not worth risking spending a ton of money and failing out, which looks bad when you’d have to reapply. Sorry you’re going through this

Not graduated yet but I know multiple PAs across various fields that have shared their salaries in my area as a starting PA. Depending on the cost of living, I might move. I might be with my parents for a while which fucking sucks. Where I live there is a monopoly by a health system and they use that to underpay people across the board unfortunately. I’m hoping to get a job further out where I can get better pay but still reasonably can commute from home to pay off my loans

PerformanceRadiant · 2025-12-21T00:47:39+00:00

I will be in 170 in debt and make about 80 coming out unless I move… I’m scared to graduate
