Micaela's Question - "From a practicing physician assistant, what are some of the greatest difficulties or issues that PAs and the PA profession face today?"There's been a lot of chatter around "PA Mentors" lately, and I wanted to address this head-on. It's awesome to have someone to help guide you, and I consider myself a mentor, but I want you to be able to identify red flags when you are looking into finding a mentor. We'll tackle:Should I have a mentor? Who should I get to mentor me?Does it have to be a PA? Should I pay for a mentor?What should I expect from a mentor?Leave a Voicemail Question! - https://www.speakpipe.com/ThePAplatformThe Pre-PA Club Facebook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/theprepaclub/Discount for www.myPAresource.com - “prepaclub”The PA Platform on Instagram - @thePAplatformYoutube Channel - https://www.youtube.com/thepaplatform

Welcome to your information source for all things relating to the physician assistant profession. While it's very desirable to become a PA, it's not easy to get there. From the extensive requirements of difficult prerequisites to having thousands of hours of experience, becoming a PA can be quite the challenge. Savanna Perry from The PA Platform Blog reveals all of her advice on how to reach your goals of becoming a PA. Savanna has been where you are and understands what it takes to look good on paper, and dazzle in an interview to land a spot in a PA program. While Savanna admits that she doesn’t know everything, she has successfully helped hundreds of Pre-PA hopefuls with personal statements and interviews to help them gain acceptance into PA school and start successful careers. Some of the topics that will be covered on this podcast include CASPA, personal statements, GRE, how to study effectively, interview skills, shadowing, letters of recommendation, how to find jobs, and interviews with other practicing physician assistants.
