UTA Spring 2012

I agree with all of you on the Pharm final! What a mess!

I will tell you - I was very, VERY direct and pointed about my student survey. I realize that it will do little to help us, but if we can help others coming behind us...that would be just as good. If you haven't already completed your course survey, I emplore you to be direct and honest about the course. The results are annonymous and she will not get them until ALL grades are posted.

I know some of you are not reapplying to UTA - but please feel free to join in on the UTA FALL 2012 discussion board... I am limited to UTA due to my job, exhausted student loans and needing an evening/weekend program - otherwise I would join you all in applying to other schools!

NOTOLA - keep your chin up...am not far behind you in the years, but I know someone who went to nursing school at 55 and is now a Director at our facility...so keep the faith - you can do this!

Has anyone taken the path final? I am taking it tomorrow and wanted to know what I would need to focus more of my attention on when reviewing all of the RRD's. Thanks!

For those of you in online pharm - I posted the question - when will our pharm final be graded...seriously, the thing is electronic...does it really take that long to grade...Ughhh this course - it will be the death of me! Thank the lord that it's my last prereq...now I sit and wait...

@BJBAILEY...I posted that question in the forum and my coach responded earlier with "it's going to take a while for grades to be released in your Mymavs" just wanted to give everyone a heads up...praying it's not too long!!

I can't remember who all on here works for Cook Children's but I would like to ask you a couple questions if you could PM I would really appreciate that!!! Thanks!

on the Pharm final MAKE SURE you remember to study Chapters 36 and 37 and also Module 13, in addition to exams 1-5. This is stated on the course calendar by week 9 (I think). This is extra stuff that we have NOT been tested on yet. I confirmed with Ms Todd that this stuff will be on the final. Since the final counts as 25% of our overall grade I don't want anyone to not see that extra stuff and have a shock on the final. We have had enough "surprises" in this class! For the Patho final, I am just going off of everything she listed as study tools. Her podcasts are extremely helpful for concepts you're unclear about. I am curious if previous quizzes will be of any help???

I just studied my readings because I did not want to overwhelm myself with so much. Have you taken your patho FE yet?

@tejas03

I work at Cook Children's. How can I help?

tejas03 · Nov 30, 2011

@AvJK...I have an interview on Thursday at the HEB pedi clinic and was wondering if you knew anything about this clinic or what I could expect during the interview? The lady that set it up stated there would be at least 4 people in the interview and I'm just trying to do my research on the clinic. Thanks for any thoughts or advice!! :)

@tejas03

I work in the hospital and live in Arlington, so I know nothing about that clinic. What is the position? Probably will ask a lot of scenario-based questions.

tejas03 · Nov 30, 2011

@AvJK...ok no problem! It's for a clinic LVN so I'm all prepared for the scenario type questions...I'm really excited and looking forward to going back to work. I also live in Arlington...small world!

Hey fellow pharm students....just received post in the discussion boards from our coach that pharm final grade will be released at midnight!! whoohoo!! (I'm guess she thought I was asking when final grade for class would be released earlier today when she said it would be a while.) Anyway, so happy to know it won't be long before we know for sure how the final went...
