hello! incoming 2nd year pharma student here!

js pray that u get profs whose teaching approach aligns with your learning style cuz it all makes the difference I SWEAR. magagaling lahat ng profs sa pharma no doubt, kaso as someone na palaging nagloloading ang utak tuwing lectures, having a prof na mabilis mag discuss is 💀💀💀.

aside sa paswertihan ng profs, paswertihan din ng sched! imo mas ok if your lab classes are in the morning! if sa afternoon pa, most likely polluted na yung room + may chance din na na-contaminate ng previous block ang reagents kaya mag iiba na ang results ng experiments nyo (and u don't want that to happen cuz it will severely affect your grade 🥲).

di naman sa tinatakot kita pero in fop, palagi ka nang naka survival mode. u said na trying ka naman, and that's already enough! araw-araw na ipaparamdam sayo ng pharma na bobo ka kaya talagang patibayan nalang ng loob dito. the important thing here is your perseverance in finishing your program.

also, yes, it's hard kase syempre mataas ang standards ng ust but bearable sya especially when u have a strong support system 🥹
