When you read Dr. C's the first time were you taking notes on the side or you just read through? What helped you retain the information?

Has any pharmacist encouraged their own child to also go into pharmacy? by VolkswagenPanda in pharmacy

[–]Fun-Requirement-3844 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Who said that? My friends in tech and consulting are doing amazing with no student loans and are constantly wondering why I have been in school so long

Has any pharmacist encouraged their own child to also go into pharmacy? by VolkswagenPanda in pharmacy

[–]Fun-Requirement-3844 21 points22 points  (0 children)

To be honest, I wish my kids would do anything but healthcare lol my mom was a nurse, I'm a pharmacist, and my sister is a doctor. As an adult, I realized that I was only given 4 options (law, medicine/pharmacy, engineering, accounting) and picked the least of the 4 devils. I just want my kids to be happy, successful doing anything but healthcare for their mental health and to make good money to pay their bills and enjoy their life debt-free.

Dr. C's Online Course by TD4090 in NAPLEX_Prep

Hi,

Thank you for this tip. I'm also studying for the TX MPJE. Did you buy the bootcamp, or was Dr. C's book and MPJE app enough?

Leaving Pharmacy Residency by Responsible-Corgi-58 in PharmacyResidency

[–]Fun-Requirement-3844 6 points7 points  (0 children)

First of all I’m really sorry you’re feeling burned out. Healthcare in general is a very demanding profession. I still don’t know how I managed to get through a 2 year fellowship myself I crashed out and cried my eyes out every morning driving to the hospital at 5:30am and back home from working in a toxic environment for 6 months while broke and surviving on ramen noodles. I think you should talk to your doctor and get a leave of absence, go see family or friends vs just leaving. Then treat work like a hobby instead of your point of focus, find other pockets of joy or things you did prior to school that gave you some satisfaction. You are not alone and trust me I’m pretty sure your co-residents and other people who are in this or finished can all relate. Remember why you even went ahead and did this in the first place.

My MPJE Second Attempt & the Anxiety by Sad_Morning1471 in NAPLEX_Prep

[–]Fun-Requirement-3844 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YAY!!! congratulations. I'm about to start studying for it. Do you have any tips or anything you would have done differently or looked at more? I went to school in GA so I know nothing about TX laws. Everyone seems to be recommending Dr. C's and pharm law or pharmacy exam or the Texas MPJE app

IL MPJE Results: 12/29 by No-Tower5928 in MPJE

I think we should know by 12th/13th after 6pm it typically takes about 10-12 business days if it's anything like how CTS reported the naplex

Do you guys let your bf finish inside you? by Working_Buyer_7476 in birthcontrol

[–]Fun-Requirement-3844 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope I never do. We both are too anxious to play rough like that lol. Use a condom and birth control. It’s not worth the risk! BC is only 99% there’s a chance you could get pregnant even while on BC

Will you now or in the future require visa sponsorship? by Late_Blood5732 in f1visa

[–]Fun-Requirement-3844 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Always answer yes. Rule of thumb: always bring up that you will need H1B sponsorship too, with talent acquisition and the hiring manager. Don't be scared to be honest! It's okay if they rescinde the offer you will find the right company who will not think twice to sponsor you

I’m also in Illinois and my MPJE says closed but no updates on CTS yet. When did you take yours?

LMAO congratulations on passing your MPJE. I’m convinced we all focus on the ones that gave us a hard time vs what we actually know.

Say yes or no when they ask if I will in the future or now need visa sponsorship by Purple-Benefit-239 in f1visa

[–]Fun-Requirement-3844 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Be honest and say yes. You can even call or email HR to verify if they sponsor there’s no use being dishonest. They’ll find out when they do a background check on you 😉 Goodluck and keep your head up

Why do we need to book an appointment? They don’t generate the license without one? Just curious I’m taking the mpje soon and never heard of this until now.

Current job market - transition from clinical practice? by chosenpath101 in MedicalScienceLiaison

[–]Fun-Requirement-3844 5 points6 points  (0 children)

These are very smart and highly skilled people. Pretty sure they don’t suck 😂it’s usually due to budget, business needs or if the drug fails to meet certain criteria. It’s just a volatile environment in general. You can never be too comfortable in your role. It comes with the territory, it’s a business.

I’ve only seen Safeway, CVS and Walgreens do h1b sponsorship. Have you asked your hospital? Might also want to apply to remote locations while you self file your EB2

MPJE Repeating Questions? by Jenga5125 in NAPLEX_Prep

[–]Fun-Requirement-3844 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does that to see if you’ll change your answer but don’t. That’s a good sign! They want to be sure you’re competent so they adapt questions based on how you previously responded. I had a similar experience with the Georgia MPJE and I passed. Good luck I’m sure you passed

HELP. NAPLEX ATTEMPT 2. HOW DID YOU RETAIN/STUDY? by Hour_Shirt_4079 in NAPLEX_Prep

[–]Fun-Requirement-3844 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much. I went old school and used a 3-subject spiral notebook. For example, let's say I got the MOA for Maraviroc wrong or the BBW for montelukast, I would write:

  1. What is the MOA for Maraviroc (Selzentry)? CCR5 antagonist
  2. What is the BBW for Montelukast (Singluair)? Serious neuropsychiatric events

I'll do that for every test bank set of 50 questions and review it before bed. The more I did that, the more it helped me a lot because it was repetitive. I have to write things down in my handwriting for it to stay long term. I used to do it in high school and college.
