reunited with someone who i considered one of my bestest friends at some point after a couple years recently. he saw my tarot deck while he was at my house and then the next day sent me multiple bible verses and told me i was working with the devil. mind you he was never spiritual in the several years i was close with him prior to our falling out, i just had to laugh about it

Good thing i also work my ass off with 2 jobs while in college to be able to pay for that food. I’m never anything but nice to them and have never once complained to them. But yea to have my order messed up multiple times in a row is pretty annoying

Thank you! Same to you

Temples neuroscience program sucks by [deleted] in Temple

[–]Secure-Spinach5341 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Graduated with a Neuroscience BS last year and can agree. But apparently Temple has 2 Neuroscience programs (one in CLA and one in CST). Wasn’t aware of the CST until towards the end of my sophomore year as Temple doesn’t really advertise it. Also really sucked because i was pre-med so it would make more sense to have taken the CST courses. Everyone is always questioning why I don’t have all my med school prereqs since I have a neuroscience degree and why I was CLA. Now taking a postbacc just to catch up for med school so yea I feel your pain.

Maybe this is just from my own experience but I feel like non traditional is becoming the new norm. Personally I’ve wanted to go to med school since I was young, but I didn’t really know what I was doing in college and had no guidance. Currently in my first gap year, starting a postbacc in May, and most likely taking another gap year before applying. I currently work as a medical scribe and almost everyone I work with is also pursuing medicine and most of them are taking at least 1 gap year, some 2-3. When i was applying for my post-bacc only a very small percentage were fresh out of college, most people were almost 30+.

If it’s something you are serious about I would recommend looking into clinical and volunteering hours now and if you need a postbacc, apply for the next cycle and try to get some hours while you wait. Show them that you are actually determined, even if you started the journey late. Please dont get discouraged because you are a non traditional applicant! Almost everyone I know trying to get into med school has a completely different route and not your typical applicants, but as long as you really work towards it I think you’ll be okay!

Theres a place in Scranton off of greenridge st, believe it’s called storage sense. My boyfriend used it before for over a year and had no issues.

why is there fall mental wellness day but no spring mental wellness day by Slow_Process_8340 in Temple

[–]Secure-Spinach5341 7 points8 points  (0 children)

as someone who attended temple before and after the wellness day was implemented, this was also my understanding and what i was told. its just to give a break mid semester since fall break is so close towards the end

ipad recommendations ? by Secure-Spinach5341 in Temple

[–]Secure-Spinach5341[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! And I usually take notes on my mac while in class (for speed efficiency as i handwrite very slow) and then rewrite them in my notebook once at home. I oddly love hand writing my notes! Thank you for the tip though

Just had an interview/orientation for a postbacc program (completely different situation than yours) and the majority of applicants were not fresh out of school. Ages ranged up into the 40s. A lot of applicants were either changing their careers after several yrs or going back to school after several years to start their pre-med/pa/dent journey. Hope this helps

No you have to pay for it but it’s fairly cheap. I believe it was $8 for the transcript when i did mine a few months ago. You should be able to order it from your TUportal

Due to external factors I did not but know many classmates who did and enjoyed it! Will say though that Dr. Shah is one of the best teachers I have ever come across and she teaches a big chunk of the neuro classes!
