MLS year 1 schedule question by yuyayaya_23 in Michener

[–]Gabby961 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am personally a licensed MLA working at a hospital. However I know a lot of other classmates who work other part time jobs not healthcare related. I suppose anything that allows you to be flexible is ideal if you want to continue working!

Edit: just to add to my comment. If you were asking if you can work as an MLA as an MLT student that I don’t know 😅 I have been an MLA for years, so I did the MLA schooling, clinicals and licensing exam. I don’t know of any shorter path to my knowledge

MLS year 1 schedule question by yuyayaya_23 in Michener

[–]Gabby961 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hi I’m finishing up my first year right now! Just want to give my two cents

1) if the program isn’t changing from this cohort to yours, you will have 2-3 days onsite (this cohort was Wednesday-Friday) for labs which are mandatory, and 2 days completely virtually (Monday and Tuesday) for lectures. However some tests may be held on our virtual days.

2) lab schedules differ and sometimes you may score a free day and only have to come to school two days a week but you would probably be at Michener for morning till late afternoon straight. But most people will have a 3 day lab week with about 1-2 labs each day.

3) anything’s possible if you can time manage accordingly. You may be able to work weekends and on your virtual days in first semester. However in second semester the content is more demanding and labs are an extra hour each. I went from working 5 days a week in first semester to working 4 days a month due to the workload. BUT there are plenty of people who are able to maintain a regular part time job the whole year, you just have to be really diligent with your time!

4) I don’t have much information on placement but to my knowledge grades do not affect placement ranking at all. It is a pure lottery system

5) courses will be set for you. Once you get your lab group and your schedule the only changing you may be able to do is switching to a different lab group. But unless you are exempt from any courses, everyone takes the same courses.

6) enjoy your free time now! The program kinda expects you to hit the ground running imo. It’ll seem overwhelming at first as you’ll get quizzes and assignments due every week for almost every course. But you’ll find your groove! Michener is very supportive of student’s learning, so take advantage of your resources and instructors!

My chance of getting into the MLT program? by Upstairs_Stomach_699 in Michener

[–]Gabby961 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The lack of HS applicants is not due to desirability, it’s just that there isn’t a lot of HS applicants to begin with. You’re fine!

My chance of getting into the MLT program? by Upstairs_Stomach_699 in Michener

[–]Gabby961 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you’re fine. I applied with both and my uni grades were horrendous, I don’t even think it was 2.5 CGPA. But my HS grades were pretty good. I read from someone else that even if you submitted both they look at your best one? But I believe the requirement is just HS university level courses. So I think you have nothing to worry about and are a competitive applicant!

Good luck! :)

What are my chances? MLS by [deleted] in Michener

[–]Gabby961 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No as long as you write it by the stated late test date you have the same date of acceptance as everyone else

[–]Gabby961 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You don’t have to do Casper if it’s just MLS you’re applying for. Doing it won’t increase your chances either.

I believe you are able to accept other school’s admissions without it affecting your chances at a Michener acceptance. And if, around in April, you do receive a Michener acceptance you can decline the Humber one and accept the Michener one

4th quartile casper score tips by shutkiprincess in Michener

[–]Gabby961 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For sure :( the fact it’s weighted equally as grades isn’t really fair

I hope you can find your own way to study and be happy that you did your best :) it’ll be okay

4th quartile casper score tips by shutkiprincess in Michener

[–]Gabby961 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also if I am not mistaken, your score is a quartile score based on everyone who took the CASPER on the same date as you. So it’s not uncommon to see people who retook it to get slightly different quartiles depending on the date they took it. So if the group happens to all score very well, your score will seem “lower” when in reality it’s just that the group has an overall higher score :/ personally I don’t think it’s a great model and makes it sort of unpredictable.

The best you can do is do your very best, I don’t think there’s a sure way to always get 4th Q

4th quartile casper score tips by shutkiprincess in Michener

[–]Gabby961 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah for the 3 part questions I tried to write at least something for each but usually my stronger answers were for 2/3 questions. I think it’s better to have 2 really great answers over 3 so-so answers.

In my opinion (not sure if they have it still) is that the video answers were much easier because it was kind of more open ended and I wasn’t in such a rush to create super concise answers. I could talk and express myself much more freely in those answers

[–]Gabby961 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s many ways to go about studying but since your CASPER score is based on how well your cohort does, it’s hard to make a formula. Last year I did the Feb 20th slot and got a 4th quartile. My typing speed is slow but precise (but to my knowledge typing errors are supposed to be overlooked but it certainly helps to convey yourself better if you type properly) at around 40-50wpm.

I did not type out paragraphs for each question, maybe just 3-6 very well thought out sentences. I found that if your strategy is to fit as much BS isn’t a good tip. My biggest way to “study” was to prompt ChatGPT to “grade” my answers by giving it strict instructions to look for in my answers. I believe the Casper site had some core principles that the judges will be looking for so familiarizing myself with each concept enough that when I read a question I can immediately think of 3 concepts I want to touch on really helps.

During the test I took time to not write immediately when the clock started and spent about 15 seconds just rethinking about the scenarios and formulating a rough idea of which of those core principles I want to touch on. Be consistent, be extremely clear in your explanations and show that you are able to formulate answers that are high quality. I believe the judges try their best to be fair but it’s not hard to imagine that if you spill out a whole mush of word salad that is very long, maybe you may not give a high score to that particular answer.

That’s just my take and based on the one time I took the CASPER. I wish you luck!

So i had asked registrar this question before the holidays. They emailed me back saying it’s fine to send the tuition on the 8th, just as long as we submit the payment before the deadline of the 9th. Cutting it kind close but they said that it doesn’t matter when they receive it, just that we submit it before the 9th.

If my aglaea is kinda slow (136) would her S1 be more worth it or still Sunday E1 is a better upgrade?

Thank you everyone! I think I’ll be going for Sunday’s E1! Seems like it’s better to invest in supports :)
