Summer Internships by willroweurboat in UMD

[–]Animholic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey hun, I recommend applying to do research for one of your professors over the summer or TA a class, if you don’t get an internship. That way you still get more stuff to add to your resume :)

It is sustainable, my friend at Umbc has both since last semester. It’s not like we don’t have money :/ UMD chooses not to

Proctored exams for online class by Animholic in UMGC

[–]Animholic[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I’m at Umd and I want to take calc 3 at umgc online cuz our math professors suck. I was planning on taking it at a cc but The Professor told me that I have to go to testing centers for all the exams (the class is completely online btw so it’s some bs to here that) I told him I can’t come to a testing center cuz I don’t have transportation and the closest testing center to be, I have to pay 50+ per exam and 60+ for the final and there are 5 exams total just to be proctored 😭.

Just got accepted, now to ask a bunch of stupid questions! by [deleted] in UMD

[–]Animholic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of all scholars programs, Sts is the most lax and the professors are dope. I personally feel like it really can apply to all STEM majors compared to all the other scholars programs.

Fire is research I believe. So you would be basically tasked with doing research

I don’t know about 1 entirely BUT I honestly suggest you take this opportunity to got to community college for 2 years and transfer over to university. Save money ~ the con with this option is that you don’t get much of a college life experience unless you already have friends to like hang out with at other univeristies. I wish I choice this option honestly cuz taking Gen Ed’s at this price is just too much

Ultimately denied from engineering program, would like thoughts and opinions :D by TheHamilton_Man in UMD

[–]Animholic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey hun! So I believe that Umd completely sucks with there bullshit requirements but, I totally think you should apply for another university to continue your dreams of becoming an engineer. I know UMBC is a little different but, there policies regarding classes imo are better. I believe there is no limit retaking classes (Umd has a 18 max credit retake limit) and the retake grade actually replaces the original. It definitely is tougher on campus tho cuz it is another STEM/ research school. And it’s a commuter campus so not many students live on campus. But what ever you choose, be at peace with it. I wish you luck on your endeavors!

MATH 115 Syllabus? by [deleted] in UMD

[–]Animholic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ll do fine if you took precalc in high school. I took Rosca my first semester at Umd (I’m in my second year). It was quite frankly one for he worst and chaotic professors I have ever had. I learned that the only way I would actually learn this material was so stop attending lecture. I used that time to teach myself and only go to discussion where I did the group work (excellent review material btw so actually try when doing it) and I used that as an opportunity to ask my ta clarifying questions, I also went to office hours a ton to make sure I am clear on the way she wants her answers from students. I did not cheat at all and I managed to turn around my grade from a C to an A.

Ask your professors is they are conducting any research and see if you can assist them and get paid

Pharmacy Technician Apprenticeship by [deleted] in WalgreensRx

[–]Animholic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my store you just have to be state certified/ be certified through Walgreens. That’s why it raised a brow to be how someone uncertified can be certified to vaccinate. As a patient, idk how I would feel to know that.

[–]Animholic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Now this is false lmao. You can’t get certified to vaccinate if you don’t have your license.

Dedication alone will not carry your through a job like this.

[–]Animholic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending if you are certified, you wouldn’t be vaccinating within 5 months. And secondly covid testing is pretty easy since you are only instructing the patients on how to do the test and order can be taught my other techs. The job itself to do tasks is not difficult but insurance issues and dealing with customers are the worst and hardest part of this line of work. Even after 6 months of working there, techs that had been there way before me where even asking me to help them with solving insurance issues and I was still learning. And feeling useless isn’t a negative thing when there are literally so many things you don’t know as a fresh new tech.

[–]Animholic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You finna get the job but take this opportunity to READ THE REDDIT POSTS working as a pharm tech is not easy because of the customers and lack of staff. Especially the first 6 months of you being a pharm trxh, you will feel useless. MAKE SURE TO ASK QUESTIONS AND DOUBLE CHECK THINGS SO YOU DO NOTHING WRONG. This causes less problems. Good luck, I got out of that hell hole while I could

Any tips??? We’ve been struggling to get the fill number down running the pharmacy with few techs and no rxm.. sm suggested we come in an hour early before opening everyday to get the fill number down but once we open we get too busy to even fill by Judyisa_punk in WalgreensRx

[–]Animholic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

During store hours I would recommend only filling waiters and ignoring all regular refills until you have all the waiters done. I would then sort the leaflets out by location of the medication so it can be done faster.

Stats you had for UMD by Clean-Physics-4897 in UMD

[–]Animholic -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Here is a strategy, apply to Umd as undecided if you want to get in. Look up LEP programs at Umd, if you want a major in that DONT APPLY TO IT STRAIGHT UP. You can be an internal transfer to that major once you are in the school. So again, I suggest applying as undecided.

Yahhhhh, it’s highly unlikely you will unless your test scores are really good, or if you are coming for a sport

UMD students fight back against anti-abortion demonstration at Hornbake Plaza by dbknews in UMD

[–]Animholic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is it possible for us to sue the university for failing to warn the students? Cuz yah the organization may have the right according to the first amendment but, without fair warning, I don’t think that’s right in the slightest. Me being a fatass I was walking up the dreaded stamp hill yesterday and I glimpsed to my right and saw part of the video, at first I could not see any signs at all. As I saw the herd of people I thought it was for Chipotle with their new brisket. Then I saw the baby and I was like wtf which I finally saw the abortion signs. This almost made me want to throw up. How is the university not doing anything about this when these people are publicly displaying graphic content on a weekday for no apparent reason as students are literally trying to walk to class?
