Can we please show our appreciation to Donny for taking time out to share these tips by simply giving this video a huge LIKE!
Hello Adanna, I was wondering once you finish Didatic and enter Clinicals, do you have to go through a physical and medical clearance? If so what does that entail? Has anyone every been refused and what would be a reason or reasons why?
Hooray for Donny! Thank you both for the interview.
Adanna The PA yes ma’am thank you
Does massage therapy count as healthcare experience?
Thank you for the tips
#1 Patient Care Experience
#2 Do a comparison chart
#3 Take the GRE seriously
#4 Improve Prerequisites
#5 Have a strong Personal Statement
#6 Shadow a PA
#7 Be open/flexible/adventurous in terms of school locations
Bonus Tip: if you can’t find a PA to shadow . . . sacrifice and go the distance to find one. There might not be one in your area but going to find one would look very good.
Thank you!!!
I was interviewed by Donny for UM/AACC PA program, I got in.
Heeyyy! Nice!
Wow!!!! That's so good. Congrats
Shiva Pandey which university got accepted???

Thank you Adanna for being such a torch of light for all pre-pa and pa-s. Thank you Donny for giving us that information. You are very down to earth and encouraging . You have the ability to make people feel comfortable enough to be themselves. I would love to interview with someone like you!
Peace be to you BOTH! I'm glad you interviewed Dr.Ard! I enjoyed meeting him! I look forward to GREAT things coming from the PA program at Howard University under his leadership, Lord willing! I had a great experience as a PA student back in 00'! Bison STRONG! Bleed blue! Keep up the great work you are doing AdannathePA! May the good Lord grant you continued success in your positive endeavors! Peace!🤓👨🏾⚕️

evrydayislvly Lol RIGHT! May be classmates
@@songbirdasu LOL forreal though! 😂
I am a 2019 graduate of the Grambling State University🐯..definitely looking into PA School at Howard University
Love the tips. I am in the process of getting ready to apply to PA schools.
You got this!
@@AdannaThePA Thank you!
Hey Adanna , can you make a video talking about the mistakes you made during your previous application cycles and if those mistakes contributed to you not getting in and if not what did you do differently the last time you applied as opposed to the previous times.
You videos are awesome, motivating and very informative.
Thank you so much for the tips Donny! Thank you for dedicating time to help us Pre-PA's students. I love all of your videos Adanna! Thank you!
Thank you Dr. Ard and Adana for the tips. I have been one of your subscribers for a while and just realized that I had a zoom meeting with Dr. Ard re: the PA program last weekend 😃. This is amazing.
lolll 12:26-12:36 is so funny! "oh he's talking bout REALLY travel" I was thinking the same thing, but that is true dedication!
Anyone else watching this in Highschool?
I love his personality! Great info, Amazing dude!
This video doesn't even capture how cool of a guy he really is. Thank you for watching!
Thanks Donny! The information was very much needed and you pinpointed some very good topics that I really appreciate to learn. Hopefully, Howard will offer an online PA program. Thank you Adana
this was very helpful, thank you Adanna✨💛
Welcome😊
Very nice listening to both of you. You both seem like very nice people. Thank you for sharing your experiences.
I've sent numerous applications to PA Schools and didn't get accepted. (Clarification on the reason is stated below). From my own personal experience, as a result of doing poorly in my classes over 20 years ago when I first attended college, that record has attributed to my lower Cum GPA and Sci GPA.
Though I graduated from college (second time) with a cum laude, military duty, and personal statement addressing my career change from Engineering to Healthcare, great recommendations, even patient response and other co-workers in my healthcare journey, when talking to those in PA Admissions my application is disregarded because of the CASPA calculation of my GPA not meeting requirements, again holding my college GPA from over 20 years ago as a "felony". :(
I would say those are great points in this video, but the GPA is your gateway to having your application even forwarded to the PA Team to look at for a possible interview.
In other words. LOL Unfortunately you could have cured cancer, won a nobel peace prize, had recommendations from physicians, medical professionals, etc..but if your GPA is not even at the minimum and even in those circumstances much higher than that, its likely you will get a rejection. :( CASPA is a "cookie cutter" approach to applications in regards to GPA.
The case where you have the ability, drive, passion, but not the opportunity as a result of a GPA acquired over 2 decades ago.
Damn, that must be hard. Have you ever thought of doing a postbacc?
There are some PA schools that don’t use CASPA! I would look into these
If you are a Christian, pray asking God if PA School is His will for your life at this time. If it is, then ask God to tell you when and were to apply and then finally start praising God in advance as you prepare to apply. Prayer is the greatest time saver. I recognize this advice is unusual but if you diligently seek God with all your heart, you will be surprised what can be accomplished.
Look into schools that look at the last 60 units or use the holistic method and only apply to those, it doesn’t make sense to apply to schools that you don’t meet the minimum requirements for.
thanks Adanna awesome and helpful video!!!!
Appreciation to Donny...
This was very good. Thank you so much for your help.
Glad I tuned in! Thanks for the info
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for the inspiration, Adanna! I appreciate everything you do on your channel

Awesome video!!! Thank you so much for this!
No problem at all, thank you for watching! :)
Thank you for this video!!!
You're very welcome :)

Thanks for watching!
GREAT VIDEO! Thanks for sharing bro! GSU c/o 2009!
This was an awesome and insightful video! Thank you Donny and Adanna
Oakwood! :)
Subscribed! Great video!
Thanks for the sub!
Thank you for this video! By chance, does this program still exist at Howard? I'm currently in Undergrad at a NC HBCU, and was interested in attending Howard for PA school. However, I have not seen the program on their website
I like your shirt btw! :)
Thank you :)
This was so good! I've looked into Howard but there's no information about requirements, tuition and etc. If he can provide that it would be helpful!😊
When will Howard open up their PA program again?
When you volunteer for patient experience, how do you track that? Do you just write it down? Is there an official form? Do you have to get something signed for proof?? How do they know you aren’t lying about it!
Growing Stones the hospital has you fill out paperwork after you’ve discussed the hours you need, etc. every time you do your volunteer hours they have you either sign in or call in to a number where they can track your hours.
Does Howard still have a P.A. program ? When I went to look the link was gone
Is the Howard PA website up yet?
Belle Looks no 😔
Do you have a link for the Duke University comparison sheet?
The commercials are kind of ridiculous
Hey adanna! I have recently come across your videos and find them extremely helpful! I’m a sophomore in college at the moment and am heavily considering going to PA school. Which one do you attend and are you happy with your choice? Thank you !!
Is shadowing an MD better or is irrelevant to the PA board when applying?
Hi Adanna great video! how about Canadian applicants?
Hey, I'd like to refer you to a video I did with a Canadian PA and she answers A BUNCH of questions about the Canadian PA process... ua-cam.com/video/b2O3GRJiEY4/v-deo.html
Here is the comparison work sheet link fmch.duke.edu/duke-physician-assistant-program/admissions/prerequisites
Do you HAVE to shadow a PA? I know i need a reference from them and a MD but what if have health care experience in rehab such as occupational therapy.
I thought this program didn’t exist at Howard anymore ?
I watched this at 1.5x speed
Facts
Hey Adanna, I am currently volunteering in a NICU center and am applying to a Physical Therapy Aide position. Are those good ways to obtain Patient Care Experience?
When you started clinicals did you get paired with other classmates? or were you by yourself? o.0
I was always by myself because I did all of my rotations out of state. As for my classmates they would sometimes be with other students in the cohort. It's all dependent on the number of sites a schoo has.
What is the website for the comparison sheet? Thanks Donny we really appreciate your input 🙏 I’m going to apply to Howard just because I can tell it’s such a great school with people like you as the director
Does Howard have a program still? I live in the dc area and I am looking for a program close to me and I would love for it to be Howard, but it is unclear if the program has returned or not.
No, there have been some barriers to the program opening back up. 😔
Does massage therapy count as healthcare experience?
I honestly can't say. I would say ask the program you're interested in. If I were to make a guess i would say no because they may not view it as truly healthcare related.
Would Donny be willing to share his email address so I could ask questions. I’m interested in getting a MPH and PA degree and I noticed Donny has both. I know there are dual degree programs but I’m in a position where I most likely won’t get in. However I’m a lot more likely to get into a MPH program right after college then hopefully get into PA school.
Didn’t know y’all were SDA? Maybe that’s why the Lord popped you into my feed.
Where do you guys live?
What is his PHD in?
Public health
Hi guys i want to apply for pa school around boston, anyone recommend best school around?? Thanks
