Thanks for all this info! I'm looking forward to applying to the program but I have to retake my science classes first so it will be a while. I start my first anatomy class in January. also, it seems like this program is AIT on steroids, congrats on making it this far. Thanks again for posting your view on this, stay focused and stay strong.
Like your videos about the program. Glad we have young men of color in the medical field. Can you talk about the program and how it effects relationships. With all of the studying required something has to give. Keep up the good work, that's a very competitive program so the fact that your there say a lot!!!! Thanks for your service.. BP
Relationships can get strained. Like, you're home every night, but not "present". Make sure your family is fully aware of how much studying it takes to pass an exam every Monday and Friday. Expectation management is key.
Can you breakdown what they mean that the army pays for the PA school. Do they actually pay for the whole program or they pay a percentage? Or loan repayment program? Also, when they say they pay you to attend the school, they pay active duty pay (BAS/BAH)? Lastly, what is the time required after graduation? Would I be able to choose my work location or they choose for me upon graduation? Thank you!
@@TheMiniWhiteHouse_ they pay all of it it’s crammed into a shorter spam than a civilian school and then you pay back with years of service just doing your job.

best guess is it's more in depth like possibly gross anatomy. Regardless, A&P is a prereq to just about any medical field and you will take it again once in that field such as medical school, physical therapy, occupational therapy, nursing, etc.

@@jeremiaharyeetey9877 you have to be an officer or near graduation at the timne of application. Because Physicians Assistant Programs are graduate or masters degree level the army does want you to have a college (bachelors) degree. - Currently in the Guard, as a specialist enlisted as a 68W Combat Medic. Looking to do this myself
Also have a quick question while I’m here, do you receive both bachelors and masters within the program or it’s best to receive bachelors before applying??
Also, we've ALL been there. Reach out to your upperclasses, even if you think it's a stupid question, it's NOT. We've ALL had the same questions! And join the IPAP and IPASS FB pages. Lots of good info over there!
I never have time for a Lt. in the Service talk like ghetto talk. Best of luck on your Officers Profesional rating by your superiors. Your going to need luck if you don't get rid of your ghetto talk.
Thanks for all this info!

Looking forward to seeing more of your videos! I have four months left of IPAP and three exams left! 🤞🏼🙌🏽
Mellissa Taylor good luck! It’s a grind this first phase!

Loving your videos about IPAP! By the way, when you finish with IPAP will you become an PA on the civilian side or only on the Army side?
Michael Aguon both. At the end of your program you earn a master’s degree

Update?
How's everything going?
is there a way to message you LT?
What was your major? ?
Why do they make you take a&p if it’s already a pre req?
best guess is it's more in depth like possibly gross anatomy. Regardless, A&P is a prereq to just about any medical field and you will take it again once in that field such as medical school, physical therapy, occupational therapy, nursing, etc.
80% is a 3.0?
So I’m seeing a lot of different things , do u already have to have a bachelors Orr?? Just the prerequisites ?
Just the prerequisites.
PT with entire branch meaning army / army or class with other branches?
Just Army. Other branches do their own thing.
I'm an E-5 and not married. Do IPAP students in my situation get BAH and not have to live in barracks?
Yes. You'll get BAH and can live on or off post.
No barracks for IPAP.

@@stephaniefoster7627 do you need a bachelor's degree in order to join?

Can you share some of the slides through NIPR or a Google shared drive.
he can't he could be dismissed from the program. its briefed when you start not to share the information to underclassmen or potential underclassmen
It wouldn't help anyway, even if it WAS allowed. They change every semester!
I got accepted to IPAP 1-21 and i am.... nervous as hell
Congratulations man!
Also have a quick question while I’m here, do you receive both bachelors and masters within the program or it’s best to receive bachelors before applying??
BA in science
@@Elew97 you get a BS when you graduate Phase 1, and your MPH when you graduate Phase 2.
Also, we've ALL been there. Reach out to your upperclasses, even if you think it's a stupid question, it's NOT. We've ALL had the same questions! And join the IPAP and IPASS FB pages. Lots of good info over there!
What base is it at?
IPAP is in Ft. Sam Houston in San Antonio. :)

Racist
Ghetto talk?? I don't see anything ghetto about how he speaks or presents himself.
@@josiimacias2119Ignore this goofball. Ignorance deserves 0 attention.
We don't have time for racists in the service anymore.
LT please shave the mustache. you are compliant with AR 670-1 but its an unwritten rule for Officers to remain clean shaven, trust me. CPT Rucker...
