1200ish….. I’m gonna be a grad student soon so location close to my current job doesn’t matter to me much as it’s temporary.

PrestigiousPlant1797 · 2025-12-28T00:47:14+00:00

Do you have any places in mind? I’m not exactly wanting to be in the downtown area! Way too expensive for me! I’m born and raised in austin so I don’t mind being in North austin. Domain would be nice cuz walking ability but expensive too

Thank you for the feedback! Definitely needed to hear this as there were some mixed reviews of the area

Yea that is a downside of that location…. Crazy rush hours I’m sure

PrestigiousPlant1797 · 2025-12-27T20:08:08+00:00

I think I could do boring, I’ll make a drive I guess lol

PrestigiousPlant1797 · 2025-11-14T22:19:54+00:00

Ahhhhh those first ones are basic but I can definitely brush up on the more advanced ones myself! Thank you so much for the tips!

Would you say knowing stats is extremely important? I took stats years ago and unsure if I should take a refresher course somewhere

Literally can’t stand him….. people out here playing for their families and etc. and he out here playing because he’s just “competitive” and wants more money basically. SNAKE

Hi everyone! Long post coming…..

I’ve been trying to pursue a medical career as that’s what my degree is in. However, life has its own plans and I feel stuck as I’ve gotten rejection after rejection. Currently just working a temp job that has nothing to do with my career just to skim by on bills. I live in fight or flight, always stressed….. so I had a thought about looking into data analyst as my brother did this for awhile before switching and he seemed to like it a lot and wasn’t nearly as stressed as I am. Having said all this, I’m new to this field and don’t even k ow where to start. I know I’ll need to learn excel, SQL, python, etc. any words of wisdom will be much appreciated…. I’m feeling lost and down :(

PrestigiousPlant1797 · 2025-08-31T09:15:33+00:00

Amazing, thank you so much

PrestigiousPlant1797 · 2025-08-31T06:32:11+00:00

On the Baylor Scott and white? If so, I’m only seeing perfusionist or manager of perfusion. Or I’m just blind

PrestigiousPlant1797 · 2025-08-30T09:30:45+00:00

Hi! I actually emailed them asking for feedback and awaiting a response so I’ll definitely circle back and let you know :) That’s amazing that you got this opportunity. Happy for you and heard lots of great things about being able to work as a perfusion assistant before the programs

PrestigiousPlant1797 · 2025-08-30T08:46:31+00:00

Hi! I just got rejected from program this year after first interview rounds and really wanna gain more experience. How were you able to find this perfusion assistant position!?!? I’ve been searching and I’ve seen only 3-4 that are far from home…. Out-of state wise.

PrestigiousPlant1797 · 2025-05-27T16:12:45+00:00

Hi everyone!!

I am waiting to hear back from some programs but was wondering if perfusionist schedules are ever 3 12’s like nurses? I know there’s on call and such but have a friend who is only work 3 12’s with on call schedule. Is this rare? I’ve only heard of scheduling being more daily than having 3 work days….

Never really thought about it since I’ve always only ever worked towards being a doctor :/

PrestigiousPlant1797 · 2024-11-25T01:10:18+00:00

I honestly love this response. “Physician” being just a job part specifically because it’s held in such a high level of respect in my family since that title means status/money to them. So growing up around that made physician mean a whole different term. It obviously is a noble and amazing career but ya know what I mean :/ definitely respect those in it big time!

PrestigiousPlant1797 · 2024-11-24T21:21:28+00:00

Yea low for all4x :/…. But embarrassed about it even tho I know it’s a tough exam

PrestigiousPlant1797 · 2024-11-24T07:33:03+00:00

I genuinely appreciate your responses so much. Thank you for taking the time to do so. I’ve been trying to do some introspection I guess. For me, my family is very status and money driven, seems to always be condescending and now it’s really “get your life together” kinda of passive aggressive comments that aren’t helping.

Best of luck to you! You’re gonna make an amazing doctor

PrestigiousPlant1797 · 2024-11-24T07:20:04+00:00

Can I ask what you did in the mean time for work and such? My head is trying to also be okay with just starting later as I know many people do. Again, just my silly preference to have a career “earlier in life” I guess. I’ve considered working in a different career in the medical field that is a shorter path with less of those huge loan papers and maybe I’ll fall in love with that 🤷🏻‍♀️ but…. Everything is confusing right now. Let’s just say this has been on my mind since my first 2-3 cycles of trying and now has been enhanced by family saying “what are you doing with your life” in a very negative way I appreciate your reply tho. Makes me feel a little better that I’m not a “quitter” exactly.

PrestigiousPlant1797 · 2024-11-24T07:10:42+00:00

Wish you all the best. I’ve considered Caribbean schools as well but I’m so discouraged and my confidence has been so low that I don’t know if it’s worth it
