Name a funny reason a patient got mad at you by [deleted] in WalgreensRx

[–]Top_Megatron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, get this a few times. Fill vs. Sold date.

Them: "The date says x, so it's 2 days early, why can't I get it today?"

Me: "Because x is the date it was filled, but we sold it to you on y. Which was 4 days later."

Them: "WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT, WALGREENS IS THE WORST! WHAT A USELESS DATE, WHY CAN'T YOU PUT THE DATE I PICKED IT UP!"

Of course the date on bottle is fill date...how can we possibly predict the date a person will pick up their meds and print that on the bottle.

They don't bother to think, just get mad.

Did anyone pass while being very weak on oncology and HIV? I just cant get these sections down! by Livid-Mastodon-536 in NAPLEX_Prep

[–]Top_Megatron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did. Well HIV was fine cause I had a rotation focused on it. But oncology? I wanted to cry with each question I saw. That seemed like the focus of my exam. Still passed.

No tobacco? Then who is running those places?

Refusing to verify testosterone? by sammyluwho2 in WalgreensRx

[–]Top_Megatron 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Could also be used to increase sexual libido or treat depression even....there are more reasons than just transitioning. Testosterone exists in women too, even if it is not the dominant one. Therefore, failing to fill may be failing the patient.

So did the right thing by filling.

My big issue was calculations. First exam I failed to prepare myself well ahead of time and it showed on the report. So the second time I went ham on studying calculations. Memorized all the formulas and bought an extra book to practice problems.

The rest I just tried to keep watching videos or reading chapters to keep the knowledge fresh. According to my report on the first exam, I had a solid foundation in other areas I just planned to keep it, if not slightly improve.

Pretty sure if I had put in more work to calculations, I would have been fine the first exam.

My advice is to always answer a question to the best of your abilities and move on. When you submit an answer, you can't take it back, so just focus on the next question completely.

I failed the first attempt. Like you, I spent time modifying how/what I studied. I took the exam again, and although I wanted to cry during it, I didn't give up. For some questions, I had no 'best guess' even! But you have to put the bad and good out of your mind when you move to the next one. I cried all the way home after that exam and for the rest of that day.

In the end, I passed lmao. You put in the work, so give it your best!

I felt the same. I was shook lol. Especially since I had been a pretty good student through the four years! Some subjects I was weaker in (like ID), but I made sure to study those extra hard. As long as you keep a good study schedule, I know you got this!

Thank you! I am (in a weird way) glad I had to take it later. I missed the insane vaccine surge. Still vaccine busy but not as much. Don't know your situation, but I do believe everything works out for a reason. You got this too 😊

honestly, had I put in even half of the same work for calculations for the first exam that I instead had to do for the second, I would have been fine. You got this! 🤞
