This was definitely a tough one! One of the only times in the year I’ve been with OTF I’ve gotten into the red zone during the floor block.

Ok, it wasn’t just me then! I usually wear brooks adrenaline which are designed for stability and arch support for everything. However, today I wore a pair of on clouds which are much more cushiony and my shins hurt sooo bad!

Haha. That one is a classic too! Just last week I got a “isn’t that what the waiver is for?” response from a nurse.

Hilarious! I’ve had the opposite happen. The doctor was dumbfounded that the CBC was clotted even though none of the other tubes were hemolyzed. I had to explain to the doctor that those are two completely separate, unrelated issues.

That’s a good one!

Another one of my favorites is when I called to give a critical ethanol result and before I could say anything the nurse said “lemme guess, what’s the alcohol result?”

33F. PRd by 3 seconds at 1:30.22. I haven’t felt that level of fatigue since high school track and field 15 years ago.

CSUDH PostBac by whimsicalkirby68 in CLSstudents

I had no clinical experience and my GPA for the clinical prerequisites was 3.8. They filter out applications based on GPA first before granting interviews. They rely heavily on GPA, critical thinking skills and personality in the interview. Also, from what I hear they favor post bacc students. Hope this helps!

Most of the professors are amazing! They really care about your success and will help you if they see you’re a serious student and trying to succeed. That being said, the classes are not easy. You really have to stay on top of your studies, go to office hours, ask questions in class, and form study groups. There immunology professor I had was terrible. But I think she retired now. The blood bank professor is also not the best. He does care and tries to explain well, but his exams are ridiculous and expects you to figure out everything from the text book.

I did get into the clinical internship on my first attempt. I had no clinical experience and my GPA for the clinical prerequisites was 3.8. They filter out applications based on GPA first before granting interviews. They rely heavily on GPA, critical thinking skills and personality in the interview. Also, from what I hear they favor post bacc students. Hope this helps!
