Hit that subscribe button subscribe to my channel hit the notification bell So you know exactly when a new video is coming out and follow me on Instagram at Adonis the PA So I know like you guys hear me say oh my gosh PA school is so hard You hear like PA's talk about it and pre PA say and other PA students say hey PA school is hard These tests are hard. I am like frickin studying my behind-off and all of that is true But I do want to introduce you to the beautiful concept of Mediation policy is just like a nice little cushy safety net that you can like lay your head on and you understand that Okay, so if I fail this exam It's not the end of the world for me because I can still Pass PA school. I can still become a great PA And that doesn't mean that you're not gonna be good at what you do and in the particular area that you shine in right So that is just disclaimer right there But for those of you who don't know about what remediation is what it is is your school may have Different areas that or different levels at which you need to Remediate your content or your grade so with my particular program It was somewhere in the 70s mid 70s I believe it was if you got lower than essentially a C then you have to remediate and I know some schools have remediation policies Where if you get lower than a B after a mediate that that wasn't necessarily a case for my program But just to kind of make numbers right because I don't know I don't remember exactly what their mediation policy number was But let's say if it was an 80 So if you got below an 80 then you needed to either grade remediate You can choose to grade remediate or content remediate with Remediation you only get I think you get like two remediations per course in the summertime and then from that you get one remediation per course so With that being said you they're kind of like prize commodities, right? You don't want to use them willy-nilly because you have more than two exams in the summer for each class So you have to kind of choose what you want to remediate if you need to remediate at all and With respect to content remediation or grade remediation. That's also something important that you have to kind of weigh So if you have to content remediate that just means you're going through like the information with the teacher So you you see the areas that you did not perform well at you go over it You maybe answer a couple questions for them and then and then that's that you know Like you're you're done with that content remediation But you can also choose to grade remediate where it will actually change your grade to a passing score So you but you again you have to like it's like a game that you're playing right? So like if your grade your remediation level is 80 and let's say you got like a 78 or even a 77 It's like well, why would I content remediate to a 70 from a 77 to an 80 if It's not really gonna make that much of a difference to my Overall score, you know my overall grade for that class. It's 3% And and even let them let's say if it was like 1% you don't want to do that I wouldn't waste a remediation on like 1% or even 2% so that's important to take into consideration. You could just content remediate and Then go from there and now there are things like you can always Content remediate you can always ask to see your exam go over your exam with the teacher Where it's not going to change your grade or anything of that nature, but it's just for your own knowledge However, if you get below that threshold then you have to remediate but remediation is a great thing you guys You know every not everybody has it all like a good day Now everybody can just kill these exams and sometimes it's essential for you to just have that in your back pocket That you can like go to if needs be to be like alright If I remediate this score because I had a really really bad day It can bring my grade up from a b-minus to a b or from you know A-minus it can actually get me to that a threshold And so those are some of the important things that you have to think about when you're you're trying to juggle remediation should I should I not but it is like the holy grail of PA school having remediation as an option for you because you were spending tens of thousands of dollars on your Education and you don't want not have a safety net for if you had a bad day Where now you're just automatically out of the program or you flunked out of that course And so now you have to wait another year because some schools do that where if you flunk a particular Course they'll allow you to come back and you know the next year not all schools do that So you that's something you have to look at but you know you don't want to have to waste essentially money Because you had a bad day or a bad a bad test taking day. So that is why remediation is great So although PA school is hard do not get me wrong It is hard and it is hard to get into Once you're there They do put in some nice little safety nets and precautions for you to do well and succeed and thrive in PA school and one of those things is remediation You can always call the different schools that are interested in see if they remediate See if it's on their website what their remediation policy is see if that's something that you can get behind And if so go ahead and apply you guys and get into PA school so we can be colleagues in the future All right Thank you guys so so much for watching and if you have any questions Leave them in the comment section below go ahead and right now and subscribe to my channel Follow me on instagram and hit that like button for more videos like this and um just if you like this video and if you like You know hear me talk about this stuff.
