Stop applying to 25 schools that won't admit you.
A 30-minute one-on-one with a practicing PA to talk through your priorities and turn your list into a real reach / target / safety list. You leave with a personalized list built around your stats, your goals, and each program’s actual admit numbers.
"I have twenty-five schools on my list for CASPA and I have no idea which ones are actually realistic."
You've been adding programs for weeks. Some came from a Reddit thread. Some from a friend who got in three years ago. Some you can't remember why you added.
Your CASPA fee math at 25 schools is north of $1,500 and that's before supplementals or deposits. You don't need a longer list. You need someone to tell you, with the receipts, which ones to keep.
You're not being too picky. You're being responsible.
You don't need to read every PA program's page. You just need us.
After coaching pre-PA students for over 10 years, we have an extensive database of information on every single PA program. And you get to benefit from that knowledge during your session.
You bring your list (Google Doc, screenshot, CASPA portal, whatever you have). We bring years of program-specific reality. Together we talk through your priorities and build a personalized reach / target / safety list you can actually act on.
The School List session.
The 30-minute call most people wish they'd had before they paid $1,500 in CASPA fees. A personalized school list, built with you on the call around what matters most to you.

Pruning your list by 8 programs at $61 average covers this call five times over. Stop spending on programs that won't admit you and start applying to the ones that will. Give yourself the best shot the first time.
Built for the applicant with too many schools and not enough strategy.
You have 12–25+ programs on your radar and need to know which are actually realistic for your stats.
You have a GPA, sGPA, and hour count, but no idea what programs actually admit at those numbers.
You're worried about wasting money on schools you have no real shot at.
You want someone who knows program-specific quirks (CASPER schools, GRE schools, hour-minimum schools, mission-fit programs).
You haven't picked any programs yet. Start with Pre-PA Counseling, then come back with a working list.
You've already submitted CASPA. That's a debrief call, not a list strategy session. Book Pre-PA Counseling with that focus.
School list questions we get all the time.
Yes. Every coach works from our maintained dataset of admit medians, CASPER/GRE requirements, hour minimums, and program-specific quirks plus their own cycle experience. We never name programs as 'best' or 'worst', but we will tell you what each one actually requires and whether your numbers fit.
It depends on your stats and budget, but the honest median for our students is 10–15 programs. More than that is usually unstrategic; fewer is risky unless your stats are very strong. But everyone is different and we will consider all of your personal factors.
Then this isn't the right session. Book Pre-PA Counseling with a 'post-submit debrief' focus instead.
We don't rank programs as 'best' or 'worst'. But we will tell you which programs match your stats, your mission (primary care vs. research vs. surgical), and your location flexibility.
Counseling is general strategy. School List Strategy is your list, program by program, prioritized around what matters to you. If your list is the only thing you want to talk about, book this.
