So...I want to be a PA..im sure of this...
I already have my degree in medical lab technology, ASCP certified and ive worked at a hospital for over two years. Im about to finish up my BS in Public health. Unfortuntately, im told that I cannot get into PA school with patient care hours.....which..i have like..100...
i hear people entering have a minimum of 6500 hours! it would take me 2-3 years to gain that much
what do i do in the meantime? I dont want to sit idle...? Is there any chance of getting in with what I have??
I was thinking of getting my masters in public health in the meantime.....but...of course, that costs money and time...
advice????
