PA School is Difficult.

I was accepted for a spring 2025 admission to my local university (in kinesiology). 2020 taught me that failure is not the end of the world. I’ve taken some courses recently but I decided I wanted to become the first PA-C of my family. GPA’s are not my strongest but I’m dedicated to doing the best I can to get into the program. I’m currently a medsurg CNA and have learned a lot within my job about surgery and post surgery work for the patients I see. This video and more is making me more confident each time I watch them!!

Hey Mario, super encouraged to come across a fellow Christian in PA school! My husband & I have also been reminded of God's provision & mercy during my PA school journey (including getting into a super crazy car accident on our move a couple days before starting my program in SoCal). May the Lord continue to bless you + your wife & keep your eyes fixed on Him for His glory & your good!

Love that you mention God <3 I just got accepted into PA school and I could only give thanks to God, He got me there, and I have faith he will get me thru PA school :)

“Through the direct provision of God”…….👍. My daughter is currently an undergrad at UC Davis who is planning on attending PA school. I shared this video with her. Thank you.

Very high production quality. I can tell a lot of effort went into this video. I hope it does well. God bless you brother!

Your best work yet! That skit with you and Jenny was hilarious 😂

[TheJennyDays]

Looking back, it would’ve been ideal to get settled in earlier but God had perfect timing and He still does❤ He always provides and will continue to. Animo chiquillo, thanks for this encouragement 😘

I am debating PA school but don't want to fail out from the sheer amount of course material at once :/ got a BS in global disease bio from davis last year but have been hesitant to apply bc of severe imposter syndrome. Also, I am loving the temple coffee roasters cup!!

Hey Mario, I appreciate all the effort you put into your videos. You have me laughing, lol. Do you mind sharing your interview experience with UC Davis? I have an interview with them and would love to hear your insights.

[sarahrivas]

Just watched a video of another PA student saying it was so easy and you will never study as much as you think. Oh Lord help me 😂😭

Love the re-enactments! You put a lot into this video and it shows!
