YOU KNOW...I HATE WHEN TEACHER SAY THAT, AS IF THEY'RE EXPECTING STUDENTS TO FAIL, IT ISN'T SO ENCOURAGING FOR THE STUDENTS WHEN THEY HEAR THAT, IT PUTS A FEAR INTO SOME PEOPLE. THEY SHOULD USE A MORE POSITIVE LANGUAGE WITH PEOPLE AND OF NEGATIVE LANGUAGE. YOU'LL DO JUST FINE, YOU'VE CAME THIS FAR AND YOU'LL FLY THROUGH THIS.

hello all!
I just finished the first half of my pn program! But Im so afraid of the next section: Drug therapy:no:. One of my instructors stated that this is where most students fail out. I'm so nervous! we start school on Monday, any other students out there starting or finishing with meds? Tips are appreciated.

That Is Annoying That The Instructor Aid That. That Is Most Likely Why Students Drop Out Of The Program Because Of What They Told The Students. Do Not Even Listen To The Teacher If You Are Half Way Through Then Obviously You Are Doing Great!!! Just Study And Ask A Bunch Of Questions And Also This Site Is Helpful.

We will be 1/2 way in a couple weeks

We finished pharm theroy 3/4 of pharm math

We start pharm labs in 2 weeks

Good luck

If you have any questions ask away

We get told all the time how hard the class is and we can fail out any minute

Although I hate that teachers say that...its true. Its the weeding out part of the program. We lost several students and it was a difficult class. Lots of info in so little time. Just study a lot and ask tons of questions!

study,study,study!! I like to write and re-write my notes. In Pharmacology, I also sorted my meds out by class, then found which ones have side effects in common, see what is different, and if all else failed, I just would study the main ones really hard, the ones that are given alot....GOOD LUCK.....I know you can do it!!
