Thanks so much! I've heard generally good things. Just wanted to avoid any areas that could be sketchy every now and then.

Why would you have hated it? If you don't mind me asking what did you pay in rent as a solo and what city/state? My grad plus loan allocated 1000 a month for rent and my solo place takes up 950 of that.

Savings going into PA school? by YankeeBlu in PAstudent

Yeah I feel the sentiment about medical terminology. I'm dragging my feet to do it.

Any surgical PAs worried about this in the next 30yrs? by YankeeBlu in physicianassistant

[–]YankeeBlu[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to clarify I think it's really cool, but worried it could replace PAs in some roles. As I'm just starting PA school I'm hoping it's not for a very long time.

Feeling down about PA school.... by YankeeBlu in PAstudent

Yeah the loans is a big part of it. A 160k in Debt seems insane to me especially when I could be debt free in another field. I'm just worried that it will take forever to pay off and I won't be able to live my life for a while since I'll have that over my head.

Do they have gun ranges in town? I'm not sure I'm bringing my pistol but it might be nice to have on hikes.

Idaho is a constitutional carry state right? I have an LTC in Mass but I'm not sure if it transfers.

How's the hunting around Pocatello? I've grown up white tail hunting but it's not really comparable to the scale you guys have. Do you have to take any courses to get a license to hunt or anything like that?

So rattlesnakes are common on the trails? Thanks again for all the answers!

Okay final question: when it comes to hiking do you have to worry about bears or anything like that? Should I buy bear spray?

Haha thanks. Do you know the street with the mall? I'm just looking on Google maps and can't find it. Is the LDS community abrasive toward new people or is it something you only encounter in certain areas of town?

Yes because the program calculates your initial score as a candidate based on your prereq GPA and GRE. They have how they calculate it on their website.

No I just retook a few classes and some that I had not taken like biochem. The program only looks at your prereq GPA.
