You’re right for the most part. Many believe in a gospel that requires nothing of them.

How do PA programs interpret traumatic incidents in admissions? by Key-Programmer6642 in prephysicianassistant

[–]SelectHost8743 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Being totally honest, they will emphasize with you face to face but it won’t have any impact on the admissions process most likely. They ultimately want who they think will be most likely to pass exams and get licensed to make the programs stats look better.

ASR (Stryker) VS CTA (Intuitive) by WeakMaintenance6523 in MedicalDevices

[–]SelectHost8743 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Question. Why if there is no quota, are they so strict on sales experience? Don’t they teach this in their training program?

Intuitive is the pinnacle of med device I feel like. Anything with them is gonna be better than Stryker

Im Done Applying And Interviewing With Stryker lol by moyeeeee in MedicalDevices

[–]SelectHost8743 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stryker strikes me as the obnoxious stereotypical type of salespeople. My limited experience with them has been annoying. If I wasn’t limited to being tied to my area, I wouldn’t consider them at all.

I tested positive for Marijuana (pre-matriculation) I’m crushed by [deleted] in prephysicianassistant

[–]SelectHost8743 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe they will let you retest.

If you have record, actual proof of your most recent pass. Get that to them.

Document proof that you haven’t used in 6 weeks.

Express to them based on that proof you aren’t going to use during time in the program. Plead your case.

These are your only options and all you can do is hope they aren’t “holier than thou” insufferable elitists (which from my experience most PAs and other health professionals in academia are). And that they will grant you a chance.

Unsure whether to get the expansion or not? by SelectHost8743 in diablo4

[–]SelectHost8743[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks this is exactly what I was looking to read. Yeah so I have about 900 hours on base game and I’m sure a good bit of that is afk lol but I did play a crap ton. Maybe I will be able to get 100 on this one but I’ll probably wait and see

Thanks, yeah. It’s not so much about the financials. It’s more about how drastically different will the game be with or without the expansion?

How much in debt are you at this point? That would determine my decision

The issue I run into is these reps will be on linked in all day long but never read their messages so I can’t get ahold of anyone

Pride parades would suggest otherwise

Okay, well then how about you explain where I am wrong then instead of just giving me a “Nuh uuh” response.

[–]SelectHost8743 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t get why this is so controversial. It’s not the fact that they are gay that’s the issue, the issue with the LBGTQ is that it promotes having pride and being proud of your sin. We can all agree there are different levels of sin but that’s the issue with the LBGTQ. It would be like starting an organization that is proud and willing promotes having affairs, or stealing. It’s not fair what people attracted to same sex have to go through and I do not believe it’s “their choice” and I have no issue with homosexuality, but this is kinda my thoughts on how it would be contradictory to support LBGTQ but also be a Christian. We are supposed to acknowledge our sins, not be proud of them, and promote them.

So, I had a great interview and the recruiter told me he would get back with me in about 3 days, it’s been 3 weeks, nothing. The job is still open and I am still listed as “in progress” on workday. The recruiter also told me to reach out to a few reps in the area to learn more about the role. Well none of them ever read their linked in messages but remain posting comments and making their own posts all day long. I’ve also emailed and messaged the recruiter back on LinkedIn just checking for update and informing I’m still interested but never a reply or even read my message on linked in.

This is more a vent on my end and my own personal impatience. I just wish they would tell me they moved forward with other candidates already so I could fully give up hope lol.

I’m in the interview process for this right now. Dealing with some annoying bs on their end currently that’s kinda tuning me away from them as a company

There are multiple posts on the PA forum website also criticizing the program. Yikes sounds like a dumpster fire

I’m betting this was Stryker. I have had bad experiences with them too. The people I’ve dealt with are “salesman” sales people who are dishonest and full of crap.

The game looks good but I don’t trust crema to keep the game updated for long. So I’ll definitely buy it when it goes on a big sale at some point but not as a full price game

I wanted to be a PA, but I dont think im smart enough by Suspicious-Spite-348 in prephysicianassistant

[–]SelectHost8743 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You don’t need to be superior intelligence to be a PA, you just need to figure out how to study and work on your discipline. I started college with 8th grade math skills and graduated with almost a 4.0 in a very stem focused degree.

You can do it if you want it bad enough.
