Quizlet

Sharing is caring, right? Well, I'm here to share one of my favorite study tools -- digital flashcards on Quizlet. During PA school, this has been one of my many study tactics. It's an easy way to study on-the-go, and I've really enjoyed the "Match" game as well. Competing with my fellow students kept me engaged and trying to beat their times! 


Clinical Medicine Review Sets

Here are the review sets, with mostly information for the clinical medicine portion of my "Big Three" courses. They are broken down into my specific testing units, so occasionally you'll see a part one and part two section for a single body system. These sets do include some diagnostic and pharmacology information, but again, are mostly focused on clinical medicine. Not every section is listed here just yet, so please know it's a work in progress!


Pharmacology Sets

I made these sets with the intention of playing the "Match" game with them, so you'll probably find them most useful when used under that context, rather than as regular flashcards. Again, it's totally fun to play this with people you know and try to beat each other's times!



*I feel it's smart to add a little caveat here. I am a student and not an expert, and I can not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of the information in these Quizlet sets. I have done my very best to create accurate flashcards, but I'm only human and can make mistakes! If you do see a mistake, please don't hesitate to let me know.

Three months: My life as a new PA-C

As I'm sure many new PA's can attest to, the end of PA school is a bit of a blur. One minute you're finishing up classes and studying for the PANCE and the next you're ... here? Three months into practice and wondering how it happened.  Graduation was on May 13, 2022, and that was a really wonderful day. My parents came to support me, I enjoyed beers on the terrace with my friends, and I felt wonderful standing on the other side of three years of grad school.  After a quick day of relaxation, I hit the ground running with my studying. I stuck with my plan for the most part, and felt equal parts "I can't possibly study any more!" and "But I'm not ready!" when exam day arrived.  I happened to be at the very same testing center as a fellow student, so when we finished our exams, we headed over to the local mexican restaurant to enjoy tacos and well-deserved margaritas. Hilariously, our brains were so absolutely melted from testing that we could

Rotation #3: Internal Medicine (and pondering my future)

When I decided to go back to school to be a physician assistant, internal medicine is what I had in my mind. As a clinical dietitian, I had the chance to collaborate with APPs and loved the idea of being able to provide that kind of care to patients. One of the APPs who I had the chance to work with often while I was a dietitian became my preceptor for this rotation! It was very cool to be standing in the exact spot I had imagined back then.  Back then, though, I did not appreciate just how challenging this job would be! I worked with a small private practice group that has privileges at various area hospitals, and my preceptor and I were based at one large metro-area hospital. The service was crazy busy the entire time I was there, and that was both good and bad. I got to see a ton of different diagnoses, a wide variety of patients, and was challenged to be relatively independent. But dang, it was hard to keep up most of the time. Honestly, I worked more and was more exhausted during

Rotation #2: General Surgery

Another one bites the dust! It's crazy to me that another rotation (and therefore all of my surgery experience) has come to an end.  If I want to be one thing, it's totally honest. This rotation was challenging . I had a ton of fun during orthopedics -- I felt like a lot of providers and residents wanted to show off how great their subspecialties were. And they succeeded! But I didn't get pimped very much and I wasn't seeing patients independently.  That all changed in a big way when I went to general surgery. Did I learn a lot because of this? Absolutely. Did I feel like an absolute pile of garbage most days because I felt like I couldn't do or answer a damn thing right? Yes. Did I talk to my classmates and get some reassurance that many rotations feel like this? Also yes. Thanks for making me feel less alone, guys. The days were long and the list of things to study was even longer. But here we are, one rotation down. We've survived, so far at least! One big t
