Hi guys, as I wait to apply for CRNA programs, I am looking to take an advanced Pharmacology course and advanced statistics. I have looked all over the internet and can not find any online graduate pharmacology courses for non degree seeking students.
I have spoken to Liberty university and they do not offer for non degree students. I applied for Arizona State University but withdrew my application due to the same thing. I looked at University of Denver and they offer it but has to be taken in order of their 3 classes, starting with advanced patho.
The only program who I spoke to that looked semi promising was University of Memphis, and they allow non degree students if there is room after all of the degree students apply. I am looking to take it online asap. Does any one have any advice? TIA.
** I am looking for advanced pharmacology because I figured it would look great on my resume when I apply because my undergrad GPA isn't the most competitive. I am willing to take any graduate class to boost my resume.
I want to take advanced statistics because my undergrad statistics course is a little over 5 years old and most schools want a recent one.
I apologize, I meant to say I registered for the advanced PATHO course today, which I don't think you have experience through the University of Memphis. I will definitely keep the advanced pharm in mind next semester though, thanks.
No. You are right. I took Advanced Patho through UND, which has a 6 unit, year-long sequence.
Hi, @Goodfight10 or anyone....I'm looking to take adv pharm and saw your post from a couple years back. I was wondering how you did on the course. Did you end up taking it? Anyone else? I need to re-take mine and get a better grade. Hoping to take it this Summer. Thanks
I only took Adv Pharmacology at Memphis. I tried to look at my old emails and can't find dates. I found that I took it Summer 2020 and class started in June. It was a good class. I was taking 4 other classes at the same time and still managed to get an A. I took it w Professor Elliot.
Good Luck!
