I’m Michele Neskey, aka The Posh PA. Welcome to my channel! My mission is is to provide personalized guidance, education and motivation to build confidence and promote wellness for aspiring physician assistants and beyond.
Having been a PA for 17+ years and helped hundreds of students gain acceptance into PA school, I understand the admissions process. I know what they are looking for, and I can help you tailor every component to make you shine, giving you the BEST chance of getting accepted to a program. But it doesn't end there. I create personalized plans for PA students and practicing PAs including test-taking strategy for the PANCE, contract negotiations, and tools to overcome and prevent provider burnout.
My goal is to get you into PA school & survive the rigorous program, help you prevent burnout as a practicing PA, and help you take care of yourself so you can be the best version of YOU for your patients, family, and most importantly YOU!

My mom is a FNP. Her email was flooded constantly with NP students looking for a preceptor.
Is there any such thing as becoming a NP and a PA have a half and half mix of both professions? Because there are very big likes and dislikes to both . I want as much knowledge into both backgrounds because both are needed just as much as the other .

This resonates with me so much as CHIEF CRNA and RN for 3 decades! All the things that you explained is exactly what I felt that resulted in my resignation . Now I am looking for a way to coach aspiring Crna’s navigate their way into CRNA school.
One thing I hate about admissions for PA is that prerequisites are so vastly different depending on schools. Some do not even take prerequisites from community college.
The oncology practice I go to has an ACNP, Oncology Nurse Practitioner, two Oncology PA-C’s, a MD oncologist and a DO/MBA I have treatment every three weeks; I see the Nurse Practitioners, Physician Assistants and oncologist in rotation - if there’s something the Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants see outside their purview, they bring in the MD oncologist
Overall good video. One significant difference noted was incorrect. Not all Nurse Practitioners work under the supervision of a Physician. In many states, and progressively more every year NPs have autonomous practice as governed by their respective state.

Please indicate when you are speaking because I am unable to hear what you are saying. Sorry😞
These are both valued healthcare professionals. Trained differently and have different models of care and focus. Kudos to all of our PAs and NPs still working in this crazy healthcare system. I have been a NP for 23 years.

interview! :)
i flatly refuse to see these 90 day wonders, physician assistance got all there debt excused and only go to school for 4 to 6 months and know nothing about medicine. i have seen p/a s playing games on there phones and ignoring the standing room only waiting rooms. i have been in ers where the p/as were bragging about how they cant wait for there shift to be over so they can get drunk and "get a piece of ass at that party. "another one was trying to get out early to go to a monster truck show. they had no concern for the sick people begging for care. we have had here in the usa a 30% increase death rate , not from covid, because of these no knowing do nothing physician assistants. they are causing more suffering and death than getting no medical care at all. they are trying to push there way into doing surgery and other major care and tests when all they do is watch a few podcasts and sign into online courses and then go lay on the couch and sleep or drink a few beers and then claim they are qualified to do whatever they want. even doctors and the ama are getting concerned about these unqualified physician assistants. i will never trust them. i have seen the death and suffering they have caused.

Hello, firstly thank you for your content. I'm a chiropractor that is trying to build my academic resume for PA school. Most of my courses were 500 level courses however I finished chiropractic school with a 2.9 gpa. I'm looking for advice on retaking classes or what approach I should take for applying to school.
I just wanna say, I am both RN (4-year program) and MD (4-year program) in my country, and now I am doing the NP program. It is a great mix of nursing and medicine. I am also looking to get my 2nd doctorate degree, the DNP.
When is the webinar??
If you have a masters degree, is your graduate GPA factored into the caspa gpa? Why do some say that the graduate gpa is separate from the undergraduate gpa and if so is it worth it to apply to a masters program if you have a low GPA?
Hello. I am visually impaired. Do you think a visually impaired can be a PA in psychiatry? Thank you.
I’m an active duty 68W (Combat Medic). I’m deciding on whether to continue my service either in the reserve or national guard. Can you go to IPAP and then commission in the reserve/guard upon completion? Or do you need have to go active duty?
Regardless of the profession, there is a universal truth: who gets the job may not be the one who can best do the job, but the one who can best do the interview for the job. Sad but true.

If I have a cum GPA of 3.5, and a science GPA of below 3.0, is it worth applying?
It depends on your science and if you can increase above a 3.0

I have 3 years full time working patient care experience. However, I need to take most of the pre requisites! And my A&P 1&2 will be 5 Years next Year. Should I work as a nanny part time and make more money and be able to complete all the classes? Or should I keep working as a pct , make less money and probably no able to take as Many classes as I would like to be able to apply next year? What would you advise? 😣
