A: FROM MENTOR ROSE ANN CLARK
IN PA
Our university offers a master's in physician's assistant
that takes 5 years to complete at the university and then
a year of clinical experience (rotations with various medical
doctors). In order to prepare for becoming a PA you should
be taking as much math and science in high school as possible.
Entrance into most PA programs is competitive so you want
to be prepared. Once you are into the program you will be
taking a lot of classes in biology and chemistry to get started
and then the professional classes are quite demanding. You
can do it, just keep up with your studies and take as much
math and science as possible in high school.
Best, Dr. Rose Clark
