Life vs Career
Until I was in the Army I didn't even know PA's existed and now I've been one for 23 years. I started out life as a medic and kept going from there. You've gotten some superb information here and you are the smarter for learning from those who have been there and done it. When I was considering PA vs MD a then good friend of mine who was struggling with the same decision told me what a Dr. friend of hers told her, "Being an MD is your life, being a PA is a profession." I thought long and hard about that and reflecting on my life style at the time and considering the versitility of the PA profession I went the PA route. Sitting where you are right now you're doing all the right things, gathering info and doing good in school; building your "resume" for any of the above mentioned career paths. Stay on track and you'll get to the point where the decision feels natural. Until then, keep it up.
