UTA Spring 2012

hey ezwol - what did you end up making in the class after you changed your studying to focus on the mods? did you fill out the drug templates for each category?

I ended up getting an A, mostly bc the teacher replaced our lowest test grade with the 2nd lowest test grade which heled me out a ton!! I did do the drug templates and it helped some on the tests, also make sure you really study your previous tests for the final. Shell re-open old tests a week before the final and I found that most of the questions in the final were from previous tests! Hope this helps!! Also, if anyone is in patho, I suggest you do the evolve modules bc most test questions come from those!!

thank you so much for the tips!!

Has anyone taken Pharm and Patho on compus at UTA? If so do you have any tips? Patho is completely based on tests and Pharm is based on quizzes and tests ( very intimidating!). There is so much pressure to make an A since I don't know if I will get accepted in to the program and may have to reapply.

Good luck with your courses everyone!

How do you get to the evolve modules in Patho?

If you bought the book new, it comes with a code to access the evolve website and get in to the e-text version with quizes for each chapter. Very useful for tests! (Some are word for word test questions).

I need some encouragement...I will be completing all of my prerequisite this 2011 Fall at TCC....and will start at UTA on Spring 2012 to start on Pharmocology, Pathophysiology, and Intro to Nursing...I've taken the HESI and scored an 82%...I have a 3.5 GPA on my science courses and lower courses overall is 3.7...Do you think I have a chance to enter the Nursing program for Fall 2012???

ezwol I have a question...I am about to take Test 1 Tuesday and am curious about the drugs. Randomly throughout the modules she will mention various drugs. Are these the ones she tests over? There are several without a lot of info about them to fill in the drug templates so I have been finding out that info on my own. Is this how you went about learning it as well? Thanks in advance for any info you can provide!

Just put in my RN-BSN via academic partnership online for hopefully Jan-Feb start. Got just a few pre's I need for the BSN that I didn't need for the ADN. Hopefully, this school will fit the bill!

I tried to make a drug profile for every drug mentioned in the modules. So for instance if there was only one "slide" in the module then I went to the book and found out as much information from both and if there was information that I couldn't find then I just left that part of the template blank. I mostly focused on the information DIRECTLY given in the modules, that seem to help me the most when it came to the tests.

How's everyone doing in their classes??!! I am anxious to find out how I did on the 1st pharm test!! Ready for them to release the grade!!

On other side note....my advisor did say when I emailed her last week about letters that they are "aiming" for mid Oct!!! Wow...may not be that much longer now!! :)

I have applied to both traditional and accelerated BSN programs at UTA. As an unpartnered student I was also told my chances are not good, but I am keeping my head up. I also applied to UTMB and have now reached the interview round there. So I am not completely out of the running anywhere yet! I have heard letters for UTA should be out at the beginning of November. All I can say is don't loose any hope.
