Original caption

PA school is one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. The studying, exams, clinical rotations, long days, and constant pressure are no joke. That’s why this story really shocked me. Seeing someone reportedly portray themselves as a PA student when they weren’t one feels incredibly disrespectful to the students who actually put in the work to earn that title. There are SO many people working toward becoming PAs, and PA school takes years of dedication. It’s not just an aesthetic or a social media persona. As someone who actually went through PA school, I have a LOT of thoughts on this one 👀 #PASchool #PAStudent #PrePA #PAStudentLife #PhysicianAssistant
