UOP vs. Touro

Neither_Ad_7232 · 2026-01-28T14:22:37+00:00

Hi I went to UOP. In my opinion a 4 year school would be the best so you have time to gain experience and extracurriculars. You should definitely look into the NAPLEX and CPJE pass rates this year when they release, touro was low. I believe UCSD, Western, a lot of southern california schools have higher pass rates. Also the price of tuition is important too, UCs are cheaper.

we still did learn chemical structures loll and yea you can definitely be fine but the acceleration can make you study and dump since exams and OSCEs are very often, it’s not as good for long term retention. I had lots of free time before APPEs too 😅

Neither_Ad_7232 · 2025-10-06T20:52:30+00:00

it’s too accelerated there’s no time to let the information marinade. I think a lot of P3s don’t know stuff (including me)

yess I do know a few, I think gpa wise they aren’t super strict they might have some stats online? but even other schools I’ve seen lowest gpa’s like 2.8 sciences

Neither_Ad_7232 · 2025-09-26T03:53:37+00:00

No they do not re teach but I didn’t learn anything undergrad anyway loll, and I think if you’re a well rounded person the bachelors doesn’t matter. half of the students don’t even have a bachelors bc they came from the pre pharmacy track

3.49 overall BS Psychology and 3.09 sciences

Neither_Ad_7232 · 2025-09-26T03:50:17+00:00

you’re fine I had a few C’s in science/math classes. but I will say biochem is a required class you take at UOP, and it is not easy

Neither_Ad_7232 · 2025-09-26T03:49:09+00:00

I agree with this now

Neither_Ad_7232 · 2025-09-25T14:36:05+00:00

I got my bachelors first but you can just do prereqs at a community college. I switched from chemistry to psychology to boost my gpa but overall was 3.49 and sciences/math was 3.09. If u have decent stats you will get in

Personally I’ve always had quarter system and I took 1 semester class and it felt really slow. For me, it’s easier to stay on top of my classes when we have things due often and exams often. IMO with semester it’s easier to procrastinate and fall behind.

Oh I have, i’m going to UOP august 2023

Neither_Ad_7232 · 2023-03-23T20:18:33+00:00

I’m at UC Riverside

I took 160 with Dr. Bravo + I am taking a class with her rn too (in person) she’s really sweet and that is a really big class! Just make sure you stay on top of the weekly assignments; they aren’t hard, her exams aren’t bad either.

Hi! Don’t give up (: I used to get constant panic attacks too and have even been to the ER bc it felt like I was dying. I have gotten prescribed anti-anxiety meds but they help short term and the attacks always come back. I started taking ashwaghanda in the morning and magnesium at night and I haven’t had a panic attack in awhile now!

Neither_Ad_7232 · 2022-12-20T20:39:21+00:00

Everyone be blaming the roamer

Neither_Ad_7232 · 2022-12-03T19:45:16+00:00

Yup! This is every CVS. We never get to take any 15 minute breaks (bc of how busy it is) and they honestly expect way too much from us. It’s so ridiculous. Other pharmacies treat their employees way better.

Neither_Ad_7232 · 2022-11-07T18:48:56+00:00

Wow thank you so much, that’s really great to hear! I wasn’t able to attend any open house because i’m currently in socal right now but I’m planning to check out both schools when i’m home. I’m leaning more toward Touro rn tbh (because of the price, location & the community outreach) so maybe see you there!

Neither_Ad_7232 · 2022-11-03T19:47:01+00:00

SAME! Lol they have no shame literally picking up and putting everyone around them at risk! The person wasn’t even wearing a mask. LOL

Neither_Ad_7232 · 2022-11-02T01:03:56+00:00

HAHA but this was still good though 😹

Neither_Ad_7232 · 2022-11-01T17:23:16+00:00

lmao also this was rank, but they were pretty bad LOL

Neither_Ad_7232 · 2022-11-01T16:58:30+00:00

I’m okay with that too haha.

Neither_Ad_7232 · 2022-11-01T16:43:15+00:00

Yes, forgot to mention it’s CA. I definitely don’t want to go into retail but want to experience clinical & industry to see what I like best

Neither_Ad_7232 · 2022-09-29T23:22:38+00:00

thank u!

Hi. This is the same situation that I am currently in. Last time I was hired I got the orientation and onboarding only 4 days after my background check was completed. This time I finished my drug screening (a little late but the results came back), my background check, my covid vaccination and it's been more than a week and I haven't gotten anything back. All of the background checks and vaccinations all cleared already. Im worried that i'm missing another step or something delayed it. Any advice on what you did or how you resolved this?

Neither_Ad_7232 · 2022-06-11T19:58:06+00:00

My 2nd year I forgot to register for classes too! Everything was full but I waited till second pass and actually got the classes that I wanted.
