@sulgi1993 sorry I meant Abilene!
Is anyone on this forum interviewing on Oct 7th or 14th? Why is this forum so dead?
Ahh because on their website and email I think they said last 2 fridays in Sept and first 2 fridays in Oct.
Well I guess that is a good thing, because that mean more/all early decision applicants get in right?
We all are on the same boat, I keep refreshing my email, checking my phone, staying on SDN, and checking Merlin/PharmCAS lol. The wait is just stressing me out, hopefully we all got in though.
Congrats Y'all!!!
Are you still going to the UH interview on Friday?I'm in too!
Yeah, but I'll probably still choose Tech over UH. I just wanna make sure I'm choosing the best school for me and although I really really liked Tech, I just want to make sure, if that makes any sense.Are you still going to the UH interview on Friday?
Guys, I declined Tech. I really really liked the school, but I found one that was just a better fit for me. I wish y'all the best though!
I ended up choosing UICWhich one did you pick if you don't mind me asking?
Thanks, and I wish you all the best!!@sulgi1993 well congrats, I'm sure the school you picked will suit you the best
PM me your email. I'll send you a pdf copy of mineCan someone please post a picture of the immunization form that was given to us during the interview? It was a really windy day on my interview day and mine flew away...
What's the schedule like so far?Congrats on all of you who have been accepted into Texas Tech! I'm currently a P1 at the Abilene campus, so if any of you guys have any questions, feel free to ask me and I'll do my best to give you a detailed response!
I'm a P1 in Amarillo. Schedule is fine and very doable. It is very intense, so don't expect easy As like we've had in the past. There are plenty of people getting very high As though. We have about 22 hours of classes/labs every week. I don't work because I have a family, but if you are a good student with great time management, you certainly could work.What's the schedule like so far?
Well, it's not for everyone and should be useful for you. Some people end up getting an MBA after they graduate anyway.@GoingBack120
I have some questions if you don't mind answering:
What are the benefits of being the the dual degree program?
That makes it better, right? Less people with your credentials when you graduate. As I mentioned, MBAs can get expensive, easily $20-30k. Mine will cost about $12k.Is it really worth joining and getting the dual degree, because it doesn't seem like many people apply for it?
The course is designed to give you that knowledge. Most of my classmates don't have business experience. The accounting course won't teach you to be an accountant, but teach you to be able to read the reports, etc. You are introduced to project management, managed care, and statistics. It's designed to teach you the business side that a private pharmacist, or pharmacy manager, will need, but won't get in the pharmacy program.How hard would it be for someone who does not have any business knowledge?
Well, we did 9 credits this summer in about three weeks. However, I think they are changing the schedule next year. It is fast paced. Some assignments due everyday.Also you mention that it is very intense, what exactly do you mean by that? What makes it so intense?
There are LOTS of student housing apartments that have subleases over the summer. Leases are 12 months and typically end after you will leave Lubbock for Amarillo. Many students go home for the summer, or have graduated, and don't want to pay for the last two months of the lease (June/July/1st wk of August). You won't have any trouble finding a sublease. Check craigslist, or call the housing complexes directly.@GoingBack120
I don't know where I can stay in Lubbock for 3 months, .
Not yet.Has anyone received an email with a code that is used to set up an eRaider ID and TTUHSC email?
As of right now, TTU SOP uses the Respondus lockdown browser for some exams and daily quizzes. It does not work effectively on Macs. If you use a Mac, you will fail the test. That's pretty much it. No Macs for tests. You can use anything you want for taking notes (even a paper and pencil!!)Sucks we have to buy a laptop just to take exams on. All the products that I have are Apple (can't wait for the new MacBook!). I wish they could allow you to have a dual boot mac to take exams on. I know we can use them for note taking and stuff but not during the exams and quizzes.
Does anyone know the specifics yet? Or what is allowed and what is not?
Just wait patiently it will come in the mail. You should be good as long as you got the acceptance/congratulation email. Everyone has different dates it just depends when you interviewed and stuff.
I hope this helps. Wish they has a Facebook page so we could start talking to people and getting to know them.
Sorry about econ. My undergraduate didn't have Public Speaking, so I had to take that last year.1) Take an economics course to complete the requirement (even though I graduated with a BS in Biochem)
Almost forgot... make sure you get BLS certified, not basic CPR. I'm sure you all know this, but there is a difference. CPR is a major part of BLS. The detailed differences don't really matter, but the fact is, you must have BLS certification (for healthcare providers) for school.2) Get CPR certified
