I'm in my 3r...Good luck in PA school Divemedic. I'm in my 3rd semester of PA school and though it's incredibly tough at times there's no regrets. In 8 weeks we'll have finals then off to clinical year.<br />I did EMS (still work a day a week) for 12 years, respiratory therapy for 6, and PA seemed the next logical progression. Out of my class of 50 students about 7 of us are medics. Your past experience will be a tremendous help in quickly absorbing new material and builing on stuff you already know. <br />Anon, thats crazy. An RN only making $17/hr?! What part of the country is that? My wife started as an RN 9 yrs ago in med/surg at $24/hr and is up to $39/hr now.Jimmy Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14626418545344867353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5977100937974295832.post-85558145141168712062011-10-13T09:23:54.928-04:002011-10-13T09:23:54.928-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Jimmy Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14626418545344867353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5977100937974295832.post-51542017002697903702011-10-12T22:50:00.903-04:002011-10-12T22:50:00.903-04:00$19.27/hr?!?

However, sadly, I gave up nursing for the same reason. After 10 years,I was only making $17.00/hr. Now I work for a really big air craft maker making $30./hr. I wish you well. Good luck to you. You are worth more than $19.27/hr...Sheesh!$19.27 GAWD, I'm embarrassed for you. That's just sad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
