Hi James Kim I did awful on my GREa I don’t know where to start how do you study? Do you first read the chapter and practice the questions? Do you time yourself? How should I approach this?
I dont mean to be off topic but does someone know a trick to log back into an Instagram account?
I was dumb lost my login password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me!
This video was soooo helpful! I plan to take the GRE this summer. Your videos have been so helpful to me, especially regarding reasons for choosing PA over MD or NP. You've been so inspiring and relatable and have really helped me ensure my choice for PA school!
Hey James! I’m a Junior at Clemson and I plan to take the GRE this summer so I can just focus on clinical hours for the next year or so. Both you and Adanna the PA have inspired me. You’re always so helpful answering my questions on Instagram, so I really appreciate you giving us this opportunity!
This video couldn’t have come at a more perfect time! I plan to take the GRE this summer/early fall. I found out about the profession from a friend about 1.5 years ago, and have been researching ever since. Honestly, following PA’s on their journey through IG and RUclips has really inspired me, that includes you!! I appreciate you posting these videos and for this giveaway! Yayy
hey james!! i’m planning on taking the GRE in the winter. i have been inspired by you and other PA students on social media to continue on this journey. thank you for always sharing so much helpful information with us :)
Hopefully taking my GRE by the end of this year, if not this year, next year for sure!!! Someone who has inspired me on this journey is definitely all you PAs on social media! Hearing real life stories and advice is so helpful. So thanks for this video! 😊
I plan to take the GRE in the summer! Thank you for sharing your studying tips because it was soooo helpful and I hope to get my hands on these. Also, thank YOU overall for always being so inspiring, encouraging, and positive!
Wow! Your video literally came at the perfect time. Just made my GRE study plan this morning and will be officially starting next week! Thanks for the video (:
I honestly didn't know much about PAs until I came across your videos! They got me inspired to look more into it. I also got to discover more about the programs through a friend who is planning on going to PA school. I plan to take the GRE in the fall, and hopefully be prepared by the end of summer. Thank you so much for the video! It was very helpful! :)
I plan on taking the GRE this fall. The person that inspire me is motivated people like you and everyone else around me :)
This was easily one of the most helpful videos I’ve watched so far!! Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video, I can only imagine how busy you are. I’m planning on taking the GRE the third week of August 😊. I was initially introduced to the PA profession by my mother’s pain management doctor, he took the time to sit down and speak to me about the pros and cons. He also allowed me to shadow the PA’s and NP’s at his practice, the whole staff was dedicated to providing the best health care experience possible (which is what I strive to do). That was about two years ago and ever since then, I’ve been watching your videos. You’re awesome for allowing us to follow you on your journey, thanks James !
Hi James! I’m scheduled to take the GRE THIS JULY!! I’m so nervous! This might sound super self absorbed but someone who has inspired me is myself, 10 years from now. Thinking about what my life could be like, the lives I could be impacting, and the fact that the future is so unknown is motivating and inspiring. A big quote that has stuck with me and that I refer too when I’m doubting myself and abilities is “if you don’t believe in yourself, why would anyone else?” That quote really keeps me going and forces me to keep pushing forward and have confidence.
Also I just want to say, I’ve been following you from what seems to be the beginning and I just want to say thank you for being someone I can look up too in regards to this PA journey.
Hi James! I’m taking my GRE in June so I have a little more than a month study. Thank you so much for making this video, I was looking some insight on how to crush this exam and your video was super helpful! As intimidating as it is, I think I just need to set up a plan, get started and... *breathe*... I’m actually pursuing CRNA and the inspiration actually comes from wanting to advance my career as a health care professional and I’m just extremely interest in anesthesia!
Dang James you are turning into a PA school Oprah! I’m planning to take the GRE within a year (but people taking it before me deserve the study materials more TBH) and your videos really inspire me to keep going and give me motivation when classes (especially med micro) knock me down. Really appreciate the time you take to film these videos and help out aspiring PAs. Also, I just noticed the RUclips name change 😂
I plan to take the GRE this summer. Watching your videos and instagram posts has been very inspiring and has motivated me to work hard to achieve my goals! Thank you
Cool quick advice, I was simply looking for scheduling an idea for approaching the exam. Thanks man!
Hi James!
I am planning on taking the GRE this coming July or August, and this video really was an encouragement for me. Somebody who inspired me to pursue becoming a PA is a friend that I had in Guatemala when I lived there with my parents who were missionaries. Seeing her and many others being deprived of proper access to healthcare really impacted the way I have molded my life so far! Thank you for all of the tips and constant support:)
Taking the GRE for the second time in July or August! Watching videos like yours I believe will really really help me improve those areas I need to get into graduate school.
I am planning to study over the summer and take the GRE at the end of the summer! You were the very first person on any social media that I start following once I decided to pursue the PA profession, so I would definitely say that you have inspired me! Thank you for creating this video and sharing your helpful tips!!
I plan on taking the GRE in the fall! I’ve met a lot of PA’s from being in and out of the hospital as a kid, so I met a ton of wonderful people and wanted to help people just like them. Love your videos, they’ve been a tremendous help!
I plan on taking the GRE within the next year. Getting ready to start studying! My mom is my inspiration. She has always been so supportive of my dream to be a PA. Love your videos!
Thanks for this cool opportunity ☺️ I’ll be taking mine in June! My aunt who is a doctor in Germany is definitely my inspiration.
I plan on taking the GRE end of May! Someone who has really inspired me on this pre-PA journey are my Camp Kesem co-counselors, especially the ones that are pre-health/ pre-med/ pre-PA. Their positivity and constant support keeps me going.
You are truly inspiring and so so so helpful! Please keep the videos coming! I plan to take the GRE this coming September so I have around five months to study. My neighbor, who is a surgical PA, has influenced me the most because he allowed me to shadow him for a week and showed such compassion each and every day. He showed me what is was like to be a PA and he taught me how to absolutely love medicine. He walked into work each day loving every moment of it and ever since I have had the drive and grit to essentially become just that. A PA that loves his job, and has a deep passion for medicine.
I plan on taking the GRE in the fall. Your tips were really helpful. Someone that has inspired me on my PA journey is a PA that treated me in high school. She was always so knowledgeable and confident.
Great score and congratulations!
I will be taking Gre in August this year! I was really tensed about my preparation until I watched this video.thanks:)
Thank you so much for the useful teaching, tips, and the content. It was very helpful. Have a great day.
I literally just scheduled my GRE for next month right before watching this video! I have been inspired by so many others, from the providers I work with in the ED to all of the PA RUclipsrs and Instagrammers that I follow. You all provide so much GREAT free content. I have been using all of the free GRE Prep content online for the past few weeks, so these books would be a great help for the next 6 weeks.
I plan on taking it in a year but just want to say thanks for keeping this freshman hopeful about getting into PA school.
Hi James! i plan of taking the GRE this fall! thanks so much for the helpful tips! my older sister has inspired me to continue into grad school!
What’s up James. I’m taking the GRE in August. I graduate undergrad in May and from there I’m spending the rest of my time studying for the GRE. I took it once and was disappointed in my score, I know it doesn’t reflect my abilities. Anyway, I wasn’t inspired by a single person but my motivation came after I dropped out of college for 4 years. During that time hit a huge rough patch but I overcame became an EMT and began to dig deeper into the medical field. I learned what a PA was and feel that it is my calling. Then after following a bunch of PAs on IG and shadowing I see how great, caring, and kind hearted they all are. I get more inspired everyday by watching videos and listening to pod casts and honestly man your videos are a huge motivator. Keep doing what you’re doing cause you’re inspiring many of us and you’re an honest representation of the PA profession and I hope I can do the same one day too.
Hi James! 👋🏽
Im planning on taking the GRE in the spring of next year to be prepared! Honestly the people that have inspired me to work on pre-requirements and (soon) apply to PA programs are my parents and you! I love you videos and you remind me that it’s NEVER too late to chase your dream. Love your moto “blood type = B positive” 💉
This was so helpful! I am taking the GRE in August. While still in undergrad, I had a really good friend who inspired me to become open to healthcare as a career option, which plunged me into this exciting journey to PA!
I will be taking the GRE most likely in the fall 2019 and I found my first PA to shadow and while watching her I learned she treated the patients emotionally by talking to them asking how they have been before going through with their treatment plans and she is still who i aspire to be like in the future as a PA myself.
Im going to take it next year. How was your GRE experience?
For PhD do we have to give general and subject GRE?
Not taking the GRE for a while so materials should go to someone else who is taking it sooner but wanted to say this is so kind of you and thank you for how much you've helped me on my journey to PA. You rock! Currently wrapping up my second term of nursing school and excited to start getting some high quality PCE soon! :)
I plan on taking the GRE July 12th! My EMT teacher in highschool introduced me to the PA field and inspired me to bed where I am today.
Hey James! Thanks so much for this video! It's been really helpful and inspiring. I plan on taking the GRE by August-September of this year. Someone who's recently inspired me (besides you) is my physician I scribe for. He's always reassuring me that my hard work is appreciated.
The information you provide on your channel is amazing! Thank you so so much
You're amazing!
I'm planning on taking the GRE at the end of May! I just found out that my friend works with a PA in my hometown who went to my dream PA school, so he's my inspiration.
Omg I’ve been waiting for this!! I plan to take the GRE this summer (within the next 3 months or so). The person who has inspired me the most to become a PA was a PA I shadowed for being so supportive and giving me resources/tips anywhere from the applications to actually in classroom tips. I have also been very inspired by you. The first video I ever watched of yours was the low GPA, but everything you have put out on Instagram and here on RUclips has been so very helpful! I would love to be the winner of these books and one day be able to pay it forward myself. Thanks for all you do!
Hey! I plan on taking the GRE next fall! What inspired me was my family, especially my sister. Freshman year of high school my sister was diagnosed with leukemia and we spent a lot of time in the hospital with her. Thankfully she is cured now. I learned more about medicine and took a nursing course in high school! Then I learned about PA and through youtube channels like yours I was sure that I wanted to do PA instead of another medical profession. Thank you!
Making a major switch from medical school to PA school and planning to take the GRE end of this summer! You’ve been such a big source of inspiration & gave me the courage to start over. It would mean the absolute 🌎 to win!! Thank you sooo much for your helpful IG posts & quotes. Keep it up up UP 🙌🏼 subbed on IG & YT 🤗
Thank you for sharing these tips and book recommendations with us!
Wow! Thank you so much James for your videos and helpful insta content! I've been following your journey for a while now and I am so amazed at how, despite your busy lifestyle, you continue to put out helpful videos, tips, and motivation for us pre-PAs! I plan on taking my GRE this summer sometime during June and would really benefit from any helpful book or resource! Ultimately, there are a lot of people who have inspired my journey to wanting to become a PA but I honestly think that the person who has inspired me the most to become a PA is the current pediatric PA who I have shadowed for the past year. The way she is so proud of her profession and is always excited and enthusiastic to care for her patients really motivates me. I really look up to her in the way that she is constantly wanting to ensure that every patient feels safe and comfortable with every check up and that is a big reason of why I want to take on this difficult journey!
You are the winner of the giveaway Daniela! Please DM me on insta the best address to send the resources! Congrats!
Man I just had to comment on your latest video. I've been watching your videos since October 2016, and I accredit a significant part of why I got into my #1 choice PA school to your videos. Applying to a large number of schools was the smartest thing I ever did, and it was thanks to your advice. So I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your resilience to keep making these videos even during PA school. Keep doing you man!
Hi James, I’m taking the GRE in July. I would say that you have inspired me most to start on this journey to becoming a PA. I originally thought I would be a doctor (it’s what all my friends planned to do so it was one of the few options I really knew about), so I majored in biology with the full belief that I would go to med school. But then I came across your videos, and they educated me on what it is to be a PA. You showed me that there were other opportunities in healthcare besides just being a doctor. (And your PA vs NP video really helped me decide on PA). You’ve inspired me to pave my own path and I am thankful!
Thank you so much for all your tips and tricks. They were suuuper helpful. I’m planning to take the GRE this summer!
Also, a friend of mine inspired me to become an occupational therapist. At the time, I was only an ABA therapist and she was servicing my student. From that moment on, I knew I wanted to be on that career path.
Thank you for sharing your tips! I plan on taking the GRE in the fall or in May next year. Honeslty you have inspired me to never give up on your dream. I’ve had my lows and thought about switching career choices, but your videos are so helpful!! Hope I win, TYTY
Hey James! I plan on taking my GRE next summer and hopefully PA school the year after! I never thought that I could even make it to a point where my stats are decent enough that I can start applying to schools and that’s all thanks to America, a med school RUclipsr who has Inspired me so much through her commitment to medicine and the genuine care she has for people and their well being. She works super hard and sometimes does 24 hour shifts for her rotations but her strong work ethic and commitment is so refreshing to see! I hope I can be as strong and goal oriented as she is
Hi James! Thank you for doing this video and giveaway!! I plan on taking the GRE in (hopefully) the next 2 months. A few people who inspired me to be on the path I'm on are the PAs I work with in the ED currently as a scribe. It inspires me immensely to see them able to tackle any variety of symptoms that come their way whether it be cardiac, psychiatric, neurological etc. In addition to the PAs I work with, my family inspires me to continue working hard as they've given me unconditional support throughout the years! I look forward to start watching more of your youtube videos, to your own progress through PA school, and to see you become James Kim PA-C :)
I plan to take the GRE 2 years from now! I luckily had a lab partner who introduced me to the wonders of being a PA and inspired me to pursue the career!
I plan to take my second GRE test in June/July. My mother inspires me everyday. She is a single mother who raised two amazing daughters and continues to support/stand behind me while I made a full 360 in my career choice. I pray to one day be half the woman she is one day.
I plan to take the GRE this summer in July. I’ve been inspired by my friends on this journey to not give up!
Hey James! I'm planning on taking the GRE in later in the Fall this year. I was inspired by a coworker I met at my second job I ever got when I was in high school. I knew she went to my high school and was 4 or 5 years older than me. However, when I met her I found out she went to the same college I was planning on going to. She told me about the PA profession and I just remember being so inspired. Soon after I met her that summer I remember her telling me about an interview she got for a PA program and how nervous she was. Later on she ended up getting accepted and from seeing her excitement I knew it was the path I was going to take as well. I can't wait to experience that feeling she felt when she told me she got accepted!
My plan is to take the GRE next summer! You have inspired me and have introduced me to so many resources that I would have not found otherwise.
Hi!! I am planning to take the GRE in the beginning of June! Thank you for the great video! Yes, practice tests are a MUST! No matter what, be positive and keep improving through every single "mistake"!! One person who has inspired me on my journey was my unexpected daughter! She's 1 years old and I am very happy to do whatever it takes to be a leader of example for her. :)
I plan on taking the GRE in two years but it's never too early to get studying! I'm not just saying this but you and Lorae Schafer inspired me on this journey. I was set on going into medicine since middle school but as I finished my second year of college, I realized I wanted a job with somewhat flexible hours, shorter schooling, and could have the opportunity to switch between specialties (since I'm very indecisive). I came across your channel and Lorae's Instagram and since then, I've been learning everything there is to know about PA and the excitement you two give off makes me even more excited for what the future holds. Thank you for your awesome videos! :)
Thank you so much for the tips!!!!
I am planning to take in August. And I am trying to pursue a carrier as a Medical Laboratory Scientist. I have a bachelors in Biological Science and My Dad inspired me to further my education. Since the beginning of my journey to study in the USA coming from Brazil he has been supporting me in my dreams. He has recently passed away in January and the last thing he said to me was: "Work Hard, Study hard and trust in God" and this is what I have been doing.
Oh man sorry for your lost, I have the SAME dream, however, I'm in the position for getting so scared or just do it!.. let me know if you made it, because in someway you inspired me, I know what feels like for lost someone because I lost my baby 2 weeks ago, btw I'm from PERU :)
I believe in you! I just passed my boards as a Medical lab scientist. It's totally worth it as either a career or a stepping stone towards future management positions or even other healthcare positions.
Oh man!! I am really sorry about your father and God bless him. I believe in you and think you can make your father's wills possible if you just focus on your dreams.
I plan on taking the GRE this summer! The people who inspire me are my parents. They are immigrants who were unable to finish middle school due to poverty. They came to the USA in order to give me the opportunity to have an education. I chose to become a PA because of health issues my family have gone through while struggling with insurances that they were not able to afford. I want to make that positive impact in low income neighborhoods and help them as much as I can. And this is all thanks to my parents for doing their best to keep me in school and never giving up on me.
After seeing your video where you talked about your time at UCSD and did a post bacc, it inspired me to try harder in school (I also go to UCSD! the thumbnail was the academic history and that caught my eye lol) and to utilize all the resources I have around me. You were also the first medical related Instagram that I followed, and now I follow a ton and love following their health care journey! Ive been pre PA since my first year, and during my second year I got confused with PA/dental/med, but now I’m in my third year, planning on taking my GRE during 2019-2020 school year so apply to PA school :-)
I will be taking the GRE in the fall! I was inspired to be a PA when i had a family member with life-threatening injuries after a car accident and I saw how amazing health care can be. I decided on PA after watching videos and shadowing health care professionals and seeing how much patient interaction a PA gets when compared to a doctor.
🤞🏼🤞🏼Im taking the GRE JUNE 1ST! So pray for ya girl please 🤞🏼🤞🏼 on the other hand, as cheesy as it may sound... My grandma has been my biggest inspiration. I’m her very first granddaughter to graduate from college and to pursue a career as a P.A. She had a dream of her own to become one. Unfortunately, she didn’t have a chance to follow her dreams because she was believed to be a “a stay at home mom” and couldn’t become something more because she was a “woman”. She tells me that even though she couldn’t achieve her dreams, she’s proud to see me pursue mine. I’m not only pursuing my dreams to become a P.A. But I want to dedicate my achievements to her.
How was the test? What was your score?
Hi James, I’m planning on taking my GRE in July! Thanks for this video it answers many questions I had! Someone who has inspired me into the PA profession was myself and my parents. I came to accept I wasn’t pursing the profession of my dreams due to pressure and doubt in my own self in thinking I couldn’t study medicine. I am a first generation college graduate so that also had an impact on me but one day I said enough. I was going to stop having fear, doubt and telling me myself I couldn’t do something. I came back to school Spring semester to change my pathway and degree to pursue the profession that has always called my name. My parents have been 100% supportive more than I could ever ask for! They inspire me to face my fears, break labels but most importantly believe in myself.
Hi! I just recently started watching your videos and they’ve been so helpful for me as a Pre-PA student. 😊 I’ll be taking the GRE in June. And someone who has inspired me is my doctor. He’s encouraged me to go into the medical field and ever since then I’ve fallen in love with medicine and it has led me to the PA profession.
I loved this video I was in need of this content. So I'm going to be taking the GRE IN October of 2019. I'm super excited to be able to take this test now that I have the right outlets to study from. I chose health care because when I was a kid I used to visit the doctors and while I was in visiting one day I seen how my doctor was helping his other patients and making them feel more than just a number. I loved what I seen and from that day forth I knew I had to join this field. Now 4 years working in the medical field I have chosen I want to be a professional and have set out on my adventure. With a little bit of luck and confidence and support from my family and friends around me I'm going to make it happen. I plan to be in PA next year.
I'm studying for it right now, so thank you for this!
Thanks so much for this video! I’ve been looking up several GRE videos to prep myself, and so far, I like yours the most. I appreciated the tips and suggestions. I’m trying to pump myself up about this since I’m trying to get into a MOT program after having graduated 10yrs ago 😱😅. Career change, here I come!! 💪😆 Thanks again for sharing this video and all it’s content!! 😁👍
I plan to take it before I start this next fall semester so in August! I plan to study all throughout the summer so I really really hope and pray I win this giveaway!! I feel like I didn’t really get inspired by one person specifically. I just truly think this profession is the epitome of perfection! Thank you for all your advice🙏🏻 it really helps so much!
Thank you for such an informative video! I really appreciate how you focused on strategies rather than the content - because let's be real, being familiar with the structure of standardized tests is at least half the battle. Fun fact, research have shown that standardized test scores correlates with socioeconomic status and is significantly less about the content!
With that said, I'm planning to take the GRE in August/ September and would greatly appreciate any materials/ information regarding the test to help me obtain a higher score. A person who inspired me most on my PA journey is a PA I met in the ED during an internship. He was super passionate about his career and was a strong patient advocate. He was also extremely considerate and looked out for patients, coworkers, and students alike. While my role was to be a fly on the wall, he always looked out for me and my peers and even offered us shadowing opportunities! His enthusiasm for his career path encouraged me to switch career paths and flip my entire undergraduate career upside down. Hands down one of the most inspiring mentor's I've met (even if he's unaware of this haha)!
I’m planning to take GRE test in July.
I’ve been working in medical field for 4 years as a Med Tech, and I always love everything that is related to science. Not until I have a chance to shadow a dialysis PA, he really inspires to PA career.
Just find out about your giveaway video today. Hopefully, I’m not too late. Thank you for giving those books away ☺️ and thank you for your useful tips as always.
I am moving into my last year of undergrad and I am so nervous about the GRE. This video answered a lot of questions that I had so thank you! I’m planning to take my GRE in 2020 after I graduate but I want to start studying this summer! I was inspired by the MEDLIFE movement to go into a healthcare career. They showed me how much I could do as a PA and how much of a difference I could make all over the World! I can’t wait to begin the journey of becoming a PA! Thanks for the video and the opportunity to get this material to begin studying!
Hey man, you're real as fuck and this video was really refreshing! I've been lacking the drive to start studying for the GRE, but here it goes! Thank you for making a video like this!
Thanks for the support! Good luck!!
Going to give my GRE in the month of July... I got inspired by APJ ABDUL KALAM... Thank you for your support
Hey James!! Love that you're doing a giveaway! My grandparents inspired me to pursue PA school as they were head nurse and a top radiologist in China. Their schooling and success was incredibly rare during that time and I saw their heart and passion towards their careers...just as you are developing your heart right now!! I plan to take the GRE next spring
I saw your videos during my freshmen year (2016~2017) and it really helped me plan and get pumped about being a pre-PA. I was a pre-nursing major and after doing online research decided PA was for me! I want to do ER and Primary in the future 😍
I plan on taking my first GRE toward the end of this summer and have been borrowing GRE books from the library to start the prep. It would be awesome to have my own books to study with though! 😍😍
Hi James 👋
Thank you for your advice. Truly appreciate it! I love the idea of writing the flash cards out using a one word definition. I plan on taking the GRE exam at the end of June or beginning of July. My friend Kayla (PA-C) introduced me to the PA profession and since then my desire to become a PA continues to grow stronger. Savanna from PA Platform continues to inspire me as well as many others now including you. I'm so glad I discovered your RUclips channel. Knowing myself, I'll binge watch most of your videos this weekend. 😄
Thanks in advance for all future advice,
Vlasta
Thanks a lot for the video's bro . I just love your videos.
I am planning to take my gre in june
I am taking the GRE at the end of August so all of these materials would be SUPER helpful. My brother is actually the one who has inspired me to pursue PA school. He is an engineer and although he is not on the PA career path, he has been the one to encourage me to pursue my career even when I felt like I wasn’t good enough. Very thankful for him!! Thank you for all your videos as well! They are super encouraging (:
Hi, I plan on taking the GRE this August! Honestly I’d say all the PA students that I’ve come across on Instagram have gave me the confidence to challenge myself! I know that I am more than a test score and with this giveaway it will be super beneficial as it will help me prepare! Great content James! I see you doing your thing! You’d make a great PA!
Amazing advice, highly recommend Magoosh as an addition for people who are auditory or visual learners because its all videos and online practice exams/quizzes! Taking my GRE and the end of this month (may push it a little further into May - TBD) and its STRESSFUL but manageable with full time job/volunteering/etc. One of my biggest inspirations: my best friend Kendall, even tho she is planning to go to Medical School - we are going through the exact same paths right now with a gap year, applications, our entry test (GRE/MCAT), work, etc. but her positivity and motivation is an inspiration that keeps me level headed and reminded of why i love this career path in the first place. When your best friend goes into healthcare with you and she understands all your healthcare memes & pick up lines, shes a keeper :)
Hello James, I started following you few months ago. I will be taking the GRE this summer . I was inspired to pursue a career in the field of physician assistant studies by my college pre health advisor. And since then, I have watched people on RUclips including yourself that have also inspired me. I love your videos and you definitely keep me motivated.
Still relevant! Great tips, thank you so much for sharing!!
Hey fresh prince! I plan on taking the GRE this summer! Someone who has inspired me has honestly been you! I was almost about to give up my journey to PA school because I didn’t think my gpa was good enough especially when prehealth advisor basically told me I wouldn’t get in with a 3.4.......that night I googled and found your video and you motivated me so much! I just wanted to let you know because I am so thankful for your channel and I will be applying next cycle!
Hey James!! i am planning on taking the GRE exam this fall , Someone who has inspired me on my journey are my parents because they've scarified a lot for me to be where i am today, and my goal is too succeed in everything that i do so that they could take a break and enjoy life to the fullest and give them everything that they've ever wanted in life.
Thank you for sharing the studying tips!!
I’m taking it June 1!!!! AHHHHH!!! 😱😱😱🤯 my volunteer coordinator really inspired me to be on the PA profession 💓
Thank you for these awesome tips.
I will be taking the GRE for the 2nd time in December. Didnt do so well the first time i took it so i am retaking it. I also have a low gpa so i have to study like there was no tomorrow.
Most definitely will be remembering your tips.I dont feel that a specific person inspired me but I feel that my life experiences have inspired me to pursue my goal of becoming a neuropsychologist someday
Thank you! This was really helpful! Looking to take the GRE in early 2020!
Thank you so much for taking the time to create this video. It was super informative and entertaining to watch! I loved all the memes/ gifs.
Someone who inspired me to go into the PA profession is my younger brother who has Down’s syndrome. He is very smart and always happy. He has inspired me to advocate, listen to and help people who come from under represented backgrounds that may not have a voice.
Oops I forgot to mention that I am taking the GRE in September.
Thank you for the information!! Super helpful and good timing cause I am probably going to be taking the GRE within the next two to three months. I was inspired at the very beginning of my pre-PA journey by Andrea Benedict. She's awesome and has led me to people like you and so many other people on instagram that have just encouraged me even more to go into this profession.
Hey James, pretty useful the video, watching from Mexico. The person who inspired me was my brother, he studied a masters in the states two years ago, and 5 years ago he had a very basic English, that was quite inspiring for me. I'm planning to do the same and take the GRE in September. Hope you upload more videos about GRE, useful and inspiring.
This video was so helpful! Thank you so much!!!
Hi James, I plan on taking the GRE this summer. I am truly inspired by yourself and other PAs who share their stories/advice on social media. I feel encouraged when I see others who were able to achieve the same dream I have.
One recommendation I have for others taking the GRE is to utilize the free GRE events hosted by Kaplan! These free events are held in a virtual classroom. The Kaplan teachers review & teach concepts as well as strategies in both quantitative and verbal reasoning. Once again the best thing is it's FREE!
My roommate from my first semester of my Freshman year of college actually introduced me to the PA profession. She's the reason I decided to research it and ultimately based my undergraduate career on pursuing it. I plan on taking the GRE next summer but I want to start studying for it this summer so I can be fully prepared to excel at this exam. Also, watching your videos has been so inspirational to me because you are so relateable and amazing! Thank you for all your content!!
Hey James! I plan to take the GRE late July and I started looking online for resources to use and sure enough perfect timing with your video! 👌 Someone who has inspired me throughout my journey is the famous Andrea Benedict from lifeasapa. Thanks for all the content you create!
I plan to take the GRE this August. I'm planning to get into OT-grad school and an OT for 30 years has inspired me :)
Thank you so much for just having this giveaway and for your advice! I am planning on taking the GRE in the Fall of this year. Someone who has inspired me is Adanna the PA (for the same reason that you have as well). Most PA schools are very white and female and there is nothing inherently wrong about that, but it's harder to imagine yourself in that field without minority representation. Seeing both of you being successful in this field has been really helpful in encouraging me to continue along this journey as a black woman. Besides that, I guess I have found inspiration to continue to work towards PA school in myself and knowing that this is a goal I want to accomplish. Looking at it in terms of trying to make my future self proud, has been a big motivator for myself especially when I have times of self-doubt and even imposter syndrome in certain spaces. Thanks again for putting this type of content out there.
I plan to take the GRE again in the first week of August, on a Saturday. I want to get a better score to increase my options for gradschool. Thank you for doing this giveaway. I learned the hard way how important (and expensive) the GRE is and am glad someone will be benefiting from these study materials. I’m inspired by the kids I work with and their families that work every day to overcome barriers in communication due to living with Autism.
Hopefully taking the GRE in June. a HUGE inspiration was my mentor while in the Navy. He was a PA-C and his journey started as a Hospital Corpsman just like me and his hard work has really lit a fire for me to achieve my goals of becoming a PA as well. Thanks!
I plan on taking the GRE this summer. I was inspired to go to PA school after working in the ER as a CNA
in 2021; this is one of the most helpful videos I have seen this far. Thanks a lot!!
