mgpd9638 Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Hi everyone I am new and had a few questions. I currently am working in law enforcement in NEw York City. I graduated college with a bachelors in Criminal Justice with 2.68gpa. I know I need to take some pre reqs. My questions are is there any fellow police officers hear that have gone to pa school. Is there anyone who is looking to have second career and need to take pre reqs and where they went. Finally cost or payment, how did you do it. What are all my options. Thanks Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator rev ronin Posted July 10, 2013 Administrator Share Posted July 10, 2013 I have a cousin who did it, who is the only other PA in my family. So, you're certainly not alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whoRyou Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 I am NOT a PA yet, but I think with my interviewing, analytical skills, critical thinking, and attention to detail (just to name a few) as well as having a BS in psych and being a Private Investigator will help me immensely with pts particularly in H&Ps.
