I have been looking into PA school
The GF is in her first year right at Shreveport right now. She studies a lot--supposedly (physicians, feel free to tell me I'm wrong) they have to learn 1/2-2/3 of what you learn in 4 years of med school in about 15 months. She shouldn't have trouble finding a job though
ETA: ME grad student making ~14000/yr in assistantship pay. Just accepted an offer for drilling engineering at 97k/year

I'm not a physician, but you are wrong.
They have to learn 1/2-2/3 of what a med student has to learn in 2 years...in 15 months.

The doctors I know tell me that pa's "don't know shite" when they graduate. (Sorry...not trying to insult your girlfriend). But they get paid a lot. I have to look for a more lucrative career now so I can try and pay for my two nephews college education.

More like 1/5 of what we learn in two. Then we have two more years of clinicals and a minimum of 3 yrs of residency. 2nd yr med students don't know shite and NP's and PA's much less. I'm not against using them, it's the future. I have a new NP I'm breaking in. She needs to make sure she starts with a doc that will help her along once she gets out. I told mine that we'll treat her first year or two as a "residency". I go behind her on all except the most basic things.
