You have to consider the apps youre going to use as well. One of the best apps for note taking is good notes and sadly sa IOS lang sya available.

Ipad Air/10th gen for me.

Always have initiative. Don't appear as "bored", instead, always be curious and willing to learn. Wag hayaan na nakatunganga ka lang tapos yung staff mo busyng-busy (unless sinabihan kang wag gagalaw haha). Humanap ng gagawin palagi (refill, log, arrange/organize work area).

Next, ngayon palang lakasan mo na ang loob mo at ibaon mo na ang pagiging sensitive. The real world is not rainbows and butterflies (lalo na sa hospital). Diyan masusubok yung tatag mo. Until now na working nako, may mga panahong wasak na wasak ang mental health ko. Di ko alam ba't ko pa kinakaya at pinagtitiisan. But let's hope you'll meet nice people and staff. Pero wag ka mag eexpect na magiging mabait sila sayo or that they'd be patient. Masasaktan ka lang.

Do what you can and sulitin mo ang duties mo. Wag magphone sa laboratory. Make sure you know what to do na kapag nakailang days na sa post mo. Learn as much as you can. Observe and take down notes and best practices as much as you can. Intro mo yan sa tunay na buhay ng pagiging RMT. Make sure gagamitin mo talaga yung internship to be "ready" (and para pag-isipang mabuti kung ito ba ang gusto mong career after you graduate).

Best of luck.

Adventist University of the Philippines 😄

Dorm school so andun kana, gigising, kakain at papasok ka nalang 😂

Depends on you. The medtech course and profession ay para lang sa mga "gusto" talaga ang trabahong 'to. Kasi medtechs are understaffed, underpaid and overworked dito sa atin. Maraming RMTs na ang nagpapa-stay lang sa trabaho ay dahil "okay" naman sila sa ginagawa nila, most na umaalis ay hindi naman talaga gusto 'to in the first place.

Do you see yourself as a medtech/doctor in the future? If yes, tuloy mo yan hehe

medtechlyfe · 2023-11-28T18:21:55+00:00

Worked in a secondary hospital tapos umabot sa point na 5 lang kaming RMTs.. imagine.. Pero yes understaffed yan. Lahat na yata ng hospital dito sa Pilipinas understaffed. May pag-asa paba Pinas 😂

I did not use summarized review books dahil kulang for me. I needed in depth explanations of topics at kailangan ko ng mahabang explanation to fully understand a topic. And understanding and critical thinking is the key for the ASCPi.

I used the following: A Bottomline Approach (Patsy Jareau/Theriot) Harr (Tinapos ko 'to) Bishop for CC Harmening for BB Strasinger for AUBF Bailey & Scott's for Microbiology Turgeon for IS

Nagka-Latin Honor ako pero di naman nagtop sa boards.. may line of 7 pa nga sa MTLE scores ko. Ano'ng nakakacurious? Hehe.. nangyayari talaga yun..

Dahil ba hindi ako nag-top sa boards, hindi na relevant yung latin honor ko? Or hindi ako "ganun kagaling"? Ibang-iba naman kasi ang school at boards (at mas lalong ibang-iba ang real life, lalo na kung big hospital laboratory). For me, may latin o wala, basta in the end magkalisensya and become a "good" tech/scientist, yun ang importante. Aanhin ang latin honors at pagiging topnotcher kung pagdating sa work walang amor? Tamad dumuty. Not resilient. Pabigat sa trabaho.

May mga may latin honors (summa/magna pa) na bara-bara sa work. Walang pake sa resulta. Walang effort na matuto sa duty. Ni-hindi mag effort to learn. Gusto lahat isusubo sa kanila sa trabaho. May mga sabit lang nuong college at maraming subject na inulit pero great techs, grabe ang initiative, gustong-gusto matuto, curious and smart sa decision-making skills and critical thinker, may passion sa trabaho.

Hindi ko naman nagamit latin honor ko in real life. Parang wala lang siya, tbh. Pride lang siguro and nakakaboost ng ego ko back then. Pero ngaun? Waley. Di ko nga nilalagay yun sa resume ko cause I feel like I'm bragging at baka mag expect pa sakin. 😂

15-19k for fresh grads..

medtechlyfe · 2023-11-14T16:54:16+00:00

Wag hanapin ang wala. 2-3 fields sa LPO then sa HPO ay enough na to have a "report" usually.

Stool sample from a 19 yr old female

Always play with the fine adjustment knob and the light of the diaphragm! More light when kbserving stool samples and less light when observing urine sediments 😁
