 All right, so this video is going out to all of you overachievers out there. You type A personalities like myself, although I did not do this. I did think about it when I was an undergrad and I had this question about, can you double major as a pre-PA? And so that's what this video is gonna be about. What's up you guys, it's Anand. Welcome back to my channel. So, if you have not already done so, please go ahead right now. Subscribe, take a look around. Like this video and join the family. Come join me on this journey. I'm making this video because I had this question about can you double major as a pre-PA? Now, I mean, it's really a simple answer and the simple answer is yes. Of course you can double major. You can do whatever you want to do as a pre-PA, okay? You can go skydive, you can go be a chef. It really does not matter what you do in that process as long as you have graduated from an accredited four-year university with your bachelor's degree, excuse me. And also, as long as you have completed all the prerequisite requirements for each particular program that you're applying to. And it's that simple, right? But with respect to doing a double major, there are just things that you have to take into consideration. So what exactly are you double majoring in? Are you doing something that is science-based that's gonna get you the majority of those prerequisites and something a little bit more artsy or social sciences or not? And you have to kind of figure out, okay, so how long are you gonna be in school? Not everybody wants to be in school for six years and then go into another program that's gonna be anywhere from two to three years. So it's really up to you and the lifestyle that you wanna live while you're in your undergraduate years and then when you're going into PA schools. And just kind of taking all of that stuff into consideration is really important for you. Furthermore, you have to understand that, like I said, you have to have graduated from a four-year college with a bachelor's degree. And then also on top of that, you have to make sure that all of the prerequisites are taken. So each school has their various different prerequisites. Not every school has the same prerequisites. So you have to go and look at each program's prerequisites and see if you're meeting those prerequisite requirements. Man, I am saying prerequisites a lot and it is a tongue twister. Prrrrr, I'm having a hard time, yes. Anyways, but if you get all of those prerequisite requirements, then you will be set. And it's really like that's really the only thing that you have to take into consideration. How long do you wanna be in school for prior to PA school? How long is it going to take you to get through your program, your dual major? What's the best double major for you? Is it gonna be helpful for you in PA school or as a PA? And if it is, then cool. If it's not, then I mean, it's, I don't know if it's necessarily worth it. But those are things, those are questions that you're gonna have to answer. And if your answer is yes, it's gonna be worth it, then absolutely double major your heart out. I thought about it for a very hot second. I wanted to do a double major in biology and psychology. And then I was told that it would take me about like six years and I was like, I'll pass. So I just stuck with biomedical sciences, but those are things that you need to consider. And hopefully, you know, you'll make the best decision for you and your family and your life and what you want as, you know, a student and then as a PA going forward. Let me know what you guys think about doing a dual major. And if any of you have done a dual major, props to you and how long it took you to do that double major, I would like to definitely know that. Please follow me on Instagram, edit down the PA and thank you guys so much for watching. I will talk to you guys next time. Bye.
