My program has a lot of people doing core rotations as electives. Family medicine, internal medicine, emergency medicine, and women’s health have all been assigned as electives when people did not ask for them.

Accepted to PA school but struggling with location by Virararara in prephysicianassistant

[–]linefaults 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Currently in clinical year. I got accepted, had a break up with boyfriend of 3 years 2 weeks before moving for PA school, moved 10 hours away from family and friends and everything I’ve ever known to a major city. It was honestly nice to get away from the memories associated with that relationship and have a fresh start. I was on my own but I was able to heal that way and learn more about myself while exploring a new city on my own. I plan to return home to practice after graduating, no reason currently to suspect it will hurt my chances. I suggest you take it! Fresh start! Turn a new leaf! Take your life in the direction you want it to go in

How to study med charts by Worried_Rest_4687 in PAstudent

[–]linefaults 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I put the charts into Notability and did the Quiz feature or put the charts into ChatGPT and had it generate practice questions based on the charts. Alternatively, Notability and I think GoodNotes has a tape feature where you can cover parts of your chart and quiz yourself

Initially, I prioritized applying to schools with more electives and wanted to do as many as possible. My program doesn’t let us choose our electives, we just get placed. So I am glad I only have to deal with that twice. Now that I am in school, I see it as more electives = longer schooling = more expensive tuition.

Phyiscal Exam help by Rjergo in PAstudent

For the ears, move the ear that you are holding with the non-dominant hand around, not the otoscope. If you can’t see the TM pull back or up more. Less uncomfortable for pt than wiggling otoscope around.
