That's it, you did, you got into PA school! You're smart, you're motivated, and you're passionate about helping people to feel better and live healthier lives! You're also a little nervous because PA school is supposed to be really hard. I was in your shoes (except for the smart part ;)) just 12 months ago, and I'd like to share some knowledge with you. 

I was never a great student until I decided that I wanted to be a PA. Even then, I never had a perfect study strategy, I really just had to figure it out as I went along. With this video, I hope that I can save new PA students (and medical, nursing, respiratory therapy, etc.) some time and stress. Use the things that I learned through trial and error, and many inefficient and even unproductive hours, and also through the help of my PA school's amazingly knowledgeable and helpful faculty. Apply these tips to your study and test-taking strategies in didactic year.

In this video, I talk about some things to do in general, like how to get the most out of your PA school mentor. I also discuss specific study strategies for core medical training classes like anatomy, pharmacology, and clinical medicine! So here are the 4 commandments of success in didactic year of PA school.
