Hi guys, so I'm a 2019 graduate and I decided to apply for PA schools for the 2020-2021 cycle. I noticed that the deadlines for most applications are on October 1st. I'm not sure if it's worth a shot and apply or wait and apply next year. I was hoping they are more lenient this cycle. Here's a list of my qualifications:
Worked as an EMT part time for 6 months which totals to 600 hours.
Volunteered as a clinical research assistant for 5 months which totals to ~160 hours. (I did in-patient interviews).
Volunteered at a hospital ~150 hours.
Volunteered at Non-profit organization for the disabled for a semester.
Leadership: tutored teenagers for a semester.
No Shadowing hours
cGPA is 3.8
science GPA is 3.83
No GRE
Should I go ahead and apply this year? What do you guys think? Also, in case I get rejected for this cycle, is there any harm in being a reapplicant next year?
