QUOTE(zstan @ Oct 13 2012, 09:16 AM) yeap. but the recognition and the resources you have access too is miles apart. Of course. I think Monash somehow is superior than IMU due to the prestigious . Every university has some shitty lecturers, doesn't it ? ;D Just depends how you overcome it. Hmmm... does 'every pharmacist need to have good memory' this statement correct? Seen it in a uni. website and it freaked me out  |

QUOTE(baoz @ Oct 16 2012, 02:25 PM) Prestige is one thing, quality is another. Fortunately Monash has both for now. Meh, pessimist here. Every pharmacist needs good memory AND analytical skills. However with practise, that "memorising" will come naturally at your finger tips. So I think you need not worry.  My first choice is NUS actually, too bad I am taking 3 subjects only. Even NUS told me that I ain't precluded from applying, but I know I have no hope on it |

QUOTE(zstan @ Oct 16 2012, 09:47 PM) ah well, a huge compartment of a pharmacy program involves calculation. you will have to carry that knowledge until you retire if you are working as a clinical pharmacist. Ah well, I think i really need to re-consider all of the decisions i have made ...Math is even harder than A level ? A level's math killed me |

The tuition fee has been increased long time ago.
I've collected the tuition fees from some universities. However, I don't think the tuition fee for Liverpool John Moores Uni is 9000 pounds but I can't find the international tuition fee.  all the tuition fee are in pounds, per annum, the amount that international students need to pay. Perhaps zstan can edit it @first post ? Attached thumbnail(s)

QUOTE(jerk @ Mar 28 2013, 12:11 AM) it is true a bpharm brings a lot of opportunities other than the conventional dispensing role eg. working for a pharmaceutical company, involve in creating government health policies, consultant pharmacist, but realistically, most graduates end up being in a hospital or community pharmacy. Thus, i dont see the point of arguing otherwise. i'm curious abt the reason... salary is higher if u work in hospital /community pharm.? or it's because it wont be so boring ? @prophetjul are you thinking about doing a bpharm?  |

i would like to know and understand more about what do pharmacies do in hospital.
Are they sittin' in the counter and dispensing those drugs prescribed by doctor? and for those pharmacies who didn't need to do ward round and work at those common diseases ( eg cough,flu,fever) department, wouldn't they feel bored for their job as they just dispense more or less same drugs everyday ? |

QUOTE(zstan @ Apr 24 2013, 10:56 PM) that depends which department are you in..if you are in the outpatient then your main job would be dispensing and counselling .. and also double check whether the doctor has prescribed a suitable prescription or not.. you are also in charge of stock checks.. supervising pharmacy technicians.. etc.. what do pharmacists do in inpatient pharm.?there are no 'common diseases' department.. only outpatient and clinical pharmacy/inpatient pharmacy for different departments. some may feel bored.. but some may prefer a routine job.. |

QUOTE(iLegend @ Mar 23 2014, 11:51 AM) I just did my placement at hospital and Lexi-comp Drug Information Handbook is one of the frequently used reference by the pharmacist in drug information department. but dont you think that lexi comp is way too bulky and inconvenient ? Other useful text books I'm currently using: - Rang & Dale - Aulton's Pharmaceutical - Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine You can ask your lecturer as well.  |
