hey all,



I am just wondering how do PA admissions look at transcripts. I got off
to the notorious "slow" start to my academic career. 20+ years ago i suffered many dropped classes( due to my imaturity). Then again 6-7 years ago i had some personal and family medical problems. The last 3+ years of my Bach/pre req's have and will be stellar. GPA is 3.63. I will have 13 years experience as a paramedic upon application. I have ACLS,PALS,PhTLS,BLS certificates. I have also been a critical care paramedic for 8 years and emergency dispatcher 5 years. Still have to do some community service(one of the schools requires it). I will graduate from a good school. What are my chances and do you have any advice.

Thanks

You should be a shoe in. I wouldn't kill myself on the community service either. Your experience is exceptional.
