Approximately how much and what type of clinical experience is needed to get into a PA program?
From the other threads, it seems getting into a PA program is even more involved than an MD admission in terms of clinical experience!
Whom would the admissions committee likely select,
a student with 4.0 undergraduate GPA and some clinical experience( minimum required- by volunteering)
vs.
a student with 3.5 GPA with about 5 years of clinical experience (such as RN, EMT etc)
