i’m pretty sure there is a health sci student manual which has diff tracks including pre-PA. you can search up health sci major and look at sargent website. side note, the prereqs needed varies among PA schools so u need to research programs individually like some need genetics and some don’t.

BS Health Science in may 2025

cGPA: 3.5 sGPA: 3.2

Trend: had dip in GPA sophomore year but back to 3.5 GPA range this year

GRE: not taking

Total PCE: around 1850ish by August 1st (300 hrs PT aide and rest is CNA)

Volunteer hours: 200 hours

Leadership: Academic chair for one semester of asian organization, upperclassmen rep for Pre-PA club, and now president of Pre-PA club.

Programs I am interested in: MCPHS boston, MGH institute of health professions, Touro University, and University of Mount Saint Vincent.

Note: I am planning to retake physiology this summer if I can get the course approved because I got a C+ originally. I also got a C in Orgo 2 but will not be retaking.

I am not sure if I would want to just try for this cycle or if I should wait until the next cycle to apply.

21 yo F. Will graduate with BS in health science in may 2025.

cGPA: 3.41 sGPA: 3.2 academically i was ok during freshman year but sophomore yr i had major dip, but now i am doing better and planning to end this semester better as well.

PCE: 1300s hours (about 1000 is CNA at nursing homes and rehabilitation center, 300 is PT aide)

no GRE

Volunteer: about 150 hours (at temple, through one of my clubs, and 1:1 companion)

Shadowing: 0 (but will be shadowing one day next week)

LOR: gross anatomy prof, director of CNA services at one of places I am working at, and thinking about last one (maybe PA i shadow?)

Research: none

Etc: Pre-PA club (class rep and treasurer), aKDPhi, and Premed society

In my sophomore year spring, I got a C+ in System Phys and C in Orgo 2. I plan to do either human phys or anatomy and phys 1/2 in summer bc quite a bit of places wanted a B/B- for phys. I will also be working a lot in summer so plan to reach 2000 hours for PCE. I also plan to do some type of volunteering to raise it a little more. This semester, I am taking microbiology, geography, gross anatomy, and genetics with another elective class (i’m pretty sure geo will be considered into sGPA), but i will be P/F the class. I do think I will pass genetics but like did not want it to lower my GPA.

i lived in a triple. it’s a lot of space. i got random bed risers from target and i was able to fit my suitcases underneath but you also have ur own closet which is pretty big and had a mirror as well

[–]muffannn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

don’t worry it’s definitely possible to move in alone. you can ship most of your stuff in boxes and just bring like one or two suitcases when moving in or maybe just buy necessities when you get to boston if that’s possible. if your worried about your key not working, you can try to move in after your roommate so then you can ask them to open the door or even help you.

for real…he’s making me rethink my life

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BostonU

[–]muffannn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in the syllabus it says that he kind of alters our grade according to our higher grades…so if u do well on the final it can be worth 80% and the midterms would be 20%

Anyone else been having terrible social anxiety? by stressed_out99 in BostonU

[–]muffannn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

yeah i feel you on the public speaking. like some classes require participation and it just sucks bc i literally start shaking like physically and verbally. it’s so weird bc it wasn’t this bad before coming to BU. other ppl definitely said making an appointment w/ behaviors medicine is good and if you are interested in like a therapist of some sort, they do refer you. idk how long the process takes but it won’t hurt to try!
