Has anyone taken the pharm test yet?

Thanks for the offer. I got the kindle version of the required book and bought the writer's reference for $35 from a friend. I wanted th reference since I am sure to be writing lots of papers!!!!!

From my experience from my spring application they only sent letter through your uta.edu e-mail. People that were waitlisted were waiting till two weeks before the semester started because they were still filling spots up till then. UTA is a very long waiting game compared to TCU and SWAU but the lower tuition really in my eyes makes it worth it. Hopefully we will find out around the beginning of May since I have heard mid-April. Last year they said we would start hearing around mid October and no one heard anything till beginning of November so I am using that as a reference point to when we should hear something this round. Best of luck to everyone who applied.

Anyone taken the 2nd Patho exam yet? Tougher than the first?

I'm taking 2nd Patho exam Monday morning. Will let you know after I take it.

That's when I am going to take it. Feeling overwhelmed. Next exam covers 3 RRD's, I believe.

I took the patho test tonight and it wasn't bad. I always judge the degree of difficulty based on how many questions I have to take a second look at; I only had 5. If i miss all 5, I would still have a high B. I'm not satisfied with a B, but still I wouldn't consider it hard.

For future reference..... I have heard that patho and pharm together is insane!!! Can anyone attest to that? My plan is to take those once my app is submitted. They would be my last courses prior to acceptance! Also, they are 12 week courses, right?

The CON does not recommend taking them at the same time. I have not taken Pharm yet, but I have my hands full with Patho. I certainly would not take them together unless I had 24/7 to devote to studying. But that is me!!

I am taking both right now and currently have an A in both; however, I don't work, but do have 3 kids and all their extracurriculars. It's doable and not that bad. I think pharm takes way more time than patho.

I work full time but they would be all I took. I do have 2 kids also. Maybe I should talk this over with my advisor
