- Hello everyone! My name is Courtney and I will be a first year physician assistant student this month! I made my Instagram and this TH-cam channel to help all of the pre-PAs out there and to document my journey through PA school.
In this video I share some tips and ways to find a PA to shadow!

Nicely done!
Thank you!!
Wow super helpful you rock 🤩
Megan Wolff thank you! I’m glad it helped🤗
thank you so much for this! i am having trouble finding someone to shadow right now especially with COVID but this makes me hopeful!
You got this!!! Just keep reaching out to different places, don’t give up! Also you can look into virtual shadowing right now☺️ I’ll try to keep my eyes peeled for any virtual shadowing opportunities and share them on my IG story when I see them!
What was included in the resume you provided them?
My work experience, schooling, volunteering, and extracurriculars! Just a generic resume😊
what size is your shirt?
It is a size small here! My normal size is a small. I have a try on of both the xsmall and small shirt in my Instagram highlights if you are interested! :) If you wanted a tighter fit I'd recommend sizing down, but for a looser fit I'd stick to your normal size.
How long did you shadow?
I shadowed for a total of about 50 hours!☺️ that’s definitely on the lower end though!
After you shadow where do you have the PA sign off? Do I have to print out a shadowing template?
I didn’t have the PA sign anything! CASPA is an honor system and programs can call the PA to confirm you shadowed there if they would like!
@@PASCourtney so after I shadow a clinic/hospital/office do I enter into CASPA?
@@Mdgutierrez Sorry for the delayed response! You can keep track of your hours on an excel spread sheet or a notebook and then later when you are applying to PA school, you enter your total number of hours of shadowing into CASPA!
@@PASCourtney Am I able to do it as I go?
@@Mdgutierrez I would just document in an excel or notebook as you go! When you enter into CASPA, you enter your total time you have done with a PA, not each individual time!
