Ap2021

Also, I heard that we have to give med math exam on our first semester. I was wondering what are the topics that will be in med math. Are those similar to the one's in pharm lab?

Oh whao. I will then probably have to leave around 4:30 if I happened to get in westchester locations. 7-3? Is this time for almost all the location or do they vary? With first come, first serve , do you mean we have to register online and we get an allocated time when registration opens? (Just like how we would register for classes)

Although some of these location are pretty far but once a week is not bad.As I live in NYC Queens, so I hope they could take that in consideration. For clinicals what are the shift hours usually?

Yeah. Whenever I try to ask them they always tell me that they are unsure but I wish I could provide us names of sites for previous cohort as transportation is also plays a big factor. But thank you so much for sharing. These information really helps to be prepared and relax a bit. Good luck to you too!! ?

I did not knew its once a week. As I live in NYC, Bronx location will work better for me. But Thank you so much for sharing. I believe a part time job would also be manageable for this program in comparison to other short program (11 month)

Thank you so much for sharing all these information and answering my queries. I really really appreciate it.

Thank you so much for sharing. If I am not bothering you too much and if you don't mind sharing WHERE did you do your clinical in Westchester and other location that were offered to your cohort? Also how many days for clinical? I heard it's once a week in first two semester. How is it after first two semester?

Oh whao. Thank you so so much. As I live in Queens, NYC, I think I am good with Bronx locations and for others will have to work it out. And knowing, you being in the same situation as me can work it out, really helped me. "I can do it too". Also wanted to ask some question, if I am not bothering you a lot. 1. We don't have classes on the day of clinical right? 2. I work as a medical assistant twice a week. Do you think I can keep/manage my work along with classes as Mercy is 18 months program or you think otherwise?

Since, I don't have a personal mean of transportation, this is the thing that scares me the most. I wish they had all the sites listed although they could change but not knowing the location at all is making me worried especially in Westchester. I hope if I get into the program & I can make lot of friends (introverts nightmare) LOL. Also heard clinical is once a week in first year so manageable. But thank you so much for sharing. ? That is okay. I hope I will get lucky but as you said once a week for first year should be okay. Thank you very much!!

Thank you so much for sharing. ?

Hi Thank you for the encouragement. I am planning to apply for fall 2022 term. Everything else seems good to me about this program from what I have heard so far but the only question I have had is about clinical. I live in Queens, NYC so I will have to travel using public transportation. I tried reaching out to Mercy to ask the clinical site but they told me they don't know about that. Do you mind sharing where your clinical have been? Where in the five boroughs and Westchester? Can we use public transportation to reach the clinical sites? I am sorry if I am asking for too much.

Hey If you don't mind can you share your current experience on PACE? Do you think 11 month program is better or why did you did you decided to go with PACE over Mercy?

Hey If you don't mind, can you share about the Clinical sites location. I am applying for this fall 2022 but when I ask them about the locations, they said they don't know about it. When I read the handbook, I found out we might have to travel upto 75 miles for clinical. I live in Queens, NYC and no personal means of transportation and heavily rely on public transportation so would really really would like to know where the clinicals are in five boroughs and in westchester? Please Also anyone who is willing to share any other experience with this program, please feel free to share. Would really appreciate it.

Thank you so much for sharing. If I am not bothering you too much can you explain the sequence the term goes. Because I see that if you start from Summer term, things can get a little difficult so does that mean it is good to start on fall or Spring? Also how many semester are there in total? Also if you don't mind sharing where did you do your clinicals in Westchester?

Thank you so much for sharing your experience and information. It means a lot.
