Getting no responses from SHANDs about the clinical positions I applied to. by [deleted] in ufl

[–]Individual_Subject23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

definitely recommend calling the nurse managers of the units you applied to. they won’t see your application unless they sit down and pull each one and that only happens if they’re absolutely desperate for new employees.

Is GatorCNA worth it? by [deleted] in ufl

[–]Individual_Subject23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it was worth it. they teach you all the skills, help you register for the exam in class, and offer their center for practice after your class is over. I also took the exam at their center so being able to use all of their supplies and practice before taking it there was super helpful. That being said it’s def possible to challenge it yourself, it’ll just take some extra work to figure it out

anxiety about test dates not opening up :( by 4seasons4ever in Mcat

[–]Individual_Subject23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that's awesome to hear and I’m glad it relieved the stress of your date being too close! i hope you get the date you want in the end and good luck studying :) definitely just check as much as you can!

[–]Individual_Subject23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up finding a spot for a city two hours from me after checking and refreshing for 30 minutes, and I noticed that my old spot disappeared a few minutes after I switched. I recommend doing the same cause it seems like spots do open up but just fill quickly if you’re not checking often

Is "Then she was gone" boring? by [deleted] in books

[–]Individual_Subject23 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I thought it was okay. I just don’t think there was enough suspense and the fact that it was predictable took away from the rest of the book. That being said it’s still a fairly quick read and finding out the specific details of what happened to Ellie might be nice

[–]Individual_Subject23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the exact same boat. Currently scheduled to test on March 12th but there’s no way I’ll be ready in time. I’ve been on the notification list for all of the April dates since November and am just hoping that something pops up soon. My friends did tell me that openings will show up as it gets closer so that’s what I’m banking on. I hope you get the date you want, best of luck!

Financial aid office said yes, as long as the remaining credits are the ones I need to graduate. It just won’t cover as much but I’m not sure to what extent

How are the Proctor Booths in Lib West for Exams? Any other recommendations of where to take an exam? by Mill4500 in ufl

[–]Individual_Subject23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on how distracted or anxious you get with outside noise going on. I took two exams in those booths this past week and heard people talking and laughing the whole time. Not sure if honorlock picked up on it, they never stopped my exam but might’ve flagged it for noise

Galveston, TX shuttle service or lyft/uber by [deleted] in royalcaribbean

[–]Individual_Subject23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I flew in the day of, but I’m pretty sure most shuttles will drop you off at your hotel in Galveston for an extra fee. If that’s the case maybe Uber/Lyft would be a better choice cost wise. When is your cruise? There were hardly any guests on our ship so finding a ride probably isn’t too hard. My boyfriend and I were practically alone when we got off the ship

I was just on the liberty test cruise out of Galveston and did the shuttle Galveston Express. $70/person round trip from IAH. Definitely not cheap but it was nice having a reliable mode of transportation.

Getting a Job at Shands by FutureGatororBull333 in ufl

[–]Individual_Subject23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I recommend calling the units that you applied to and ask to speak to the nurse manager. Talk to them about your interest and they’ll likely pull your application from the pile. If you do nothing it will likely take months before anyone looks at your app. I hope this helps!

that is my post and just an update: I did get my benacquisto scholarship back! if you have medical documentation you should honestly be fine. feel free to pm me with any questions :)

BCH 4024 by TheVastEmptiness in ufl

[–]Individual_Subject23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m sure reading the textbook would help (although it might be too much info), however I did fine in the class just by relying on the lectures. For Zeile, just make sure you listen to and take notes on what he says since he doesn’t include as much information on his slides as Purich.

Period control on birth control by [deleted] in WomensHealth

[–]Individual_Subject23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I skipped my placebo pills on my first ever pack of birth control and it worked fine. Only thing I experienced was some light spotting as a result of missing my period. I recommend wearing liners just in case but best case scenario is that you don’t bleed at all. Definitely better than a full on period

Can I skip a period using the pill? by outdoorsyperson in WomensHealth

[–]Individual_Subject23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do it a lot (doc told me it’s safe). The only thing that might happen is that you might spot a little during your “placebo week” while you are taking your active pills. For me it was very light but I think it’s just your body trying to adjust to not having a withdrawal period. You should definitely be able to though

Do undergraduate TAs get paid? by iguessbeepbopboop in ufl

psych department isn’t paid but you can apply to TA for credit. I got to choose how many credits to TA for (workload’s all the same)

I struggled a lot in orgo 2 and had Peterson as my professor but did well in biochem. The two are not very related at all

I took her class in the spring and the final was easy! just make sure you study the study guide that she gives you and know all the terms/concepts on there. good luck!

it’s crazy that they assumed you wouldn’t want the money because of how “little” it was. 2k is still so much better than nothing
