It's definitely not going to shoot you to the front, or even middle of the line. I wouldn't invest in anything at that price that's not close to a sure thing. I know PAs that didn't do SMPs that are drowning in debt. I can't imagine racking up that much more. Get a paramedic or RT degree with your time... At least you'll have that going for you. I work with RTs that make almost as much as some of the low paid PAs where I work.... With considerably less debt. Most of them could probably walk right into PA school if they wanted.If you get an SMP, you might be in the same position next cycle.... And have no way to get decent health care experience after spending all that money. Those programs prey on folks that need a hole in one after undergrad with a biology degree they can't use. Do something else and you might even enjoy the path to get where you want.</blockquote>
