[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pp again. It may matter when dating/getting married to those who care. Having gone to Penn or Georgetown or Johns Hopkins will put you in a better position than Ohio State. The Yale PA student I was thinking of had her pick of [b]men at Yale. [/b]

There is a woman on the relationship board who is some sort of healthcare tech always asking about dating up. [/quote]

I am all for prestigious nursing programs for many reasons above but dating doctors should not be a consideration for nurses or PAs. 
Med schools are 50-50 male/female and most were when DW and I started in the late 90s. We went to different med schools, one T3 one T50, both had PA schools affiliated with the med school and some of the basic courses(anatomy) overlapped. Not one single PA-doc couple came out of it. Most docs came into med school single and by the end of med school were dating someone in the class seriously enough to couples match. A few dated residents and married them. The rest of us were already together from undergrad. A few met dental school students or law students and professional school mixers and married them. I continue to teach the physical exam basics at the med school and mentor small groups: they still predominantly date and marry each other if they arrive single. About 10% arrive already married which is new--it was Zero back then --but the average is 1-2 gap years now, not 0. There is little time to look elsewhere and the gender balance suits everyone.
