Is the GRE required for PA school the GRE General Test or the GRE Subject Test?
Why don't PA schools use the MCAT like some of the AA schools? It seems like it is a better representation of the basic sciences required to complete the program plus it has the ability to weed out morans.
Seems like it would be a good way to demonstrate the difference in curriculum and prerequisites between PA's and NP's.
Southern Illinois University accepts the MAT or GRE or MCAT
hiGeneral GRE.
Many schools require it but quite a few don't look at it at all.
Good luck.

jek, your writing is unacceptable. Please use proper punctuation and sentence structure so that others can properly understand you. I would suggest enrollment into an English and Writing course.
hi
its ok u could not understand my point. now, could you tell me of any physician courses not requiring gre for admissions
Would PA schools rather see a person w/ clinical background and references w/ awesome GPA and a masters, even if their GRE scores are not good?

Thanks for this ... I hope this still is the same when I am ready to take it in about a yearI believe most schools require a 1000 minimum. It is similar in some ways to the SAT. It tests your basic math skills and verbal skills. Keep in mind, it is trickier than you would think. I am good at math and aced all my honors math classes, including calc. I was shocked at how bad I did on my first GRE practice test. It doesn't test your straight knowledge, but more so your reading, problem solving, and analytical skills. I'd do a few practice tests and see how you do. You might want to invest in a good book to get an idea of how to tackle the test.
I wonder if they would waive the GRE for someone that already has an MBA (GMAT)
After all, the point of the GRE would be to determine if you would do well in a master's program.
ive not heard of any PA school that requires the gre to allow a waive of that test. i know that one of the schools near me uses it to evaluate applicants for interviews through assigning points values for the scores, along with gpa. ive the gre isnt so much a measure of fitness for a masters program as much as it is a way to satisfy other academic departments with masters programs to the fact that a PA programs fall in line with what the graduate schools require. mostly, you will see a PA school gre requirement at places that have a graduate school that students must be admitted under. for instance, to go to the university of washington PA program, one must be admitted to the university of washington graduate school... and they require a gre be taken for all the departments in the graduate school. so the gre is par for the course. additionally, they could give a darn whether you were smart enough to get an MBA. PA school is a different ball game.
