QUOTE(ridd @ Aug 29 2009, 11:02 PM) In pharmacy, you don't have to learn the human anatomy as detailed as medical students or even nursing students. So just some simple basic anatomy, you don't need to dissect any human body or anything like that haha, although i wish!! the most we did was to dissect a rat and that was during my thesis project. We are more focused on the chemistry aspect! As for calculations, its just really some simple maths but the first two years maybe you need to learn some organic chem, stats., not really calculus..but in your last few years, its more about memorizing those drug names and patient care plan, e.g. how to cope with side-effects, you learn when is it ok to give combinations of meds without having interactions, etc. so it gets really interesting, trust me!!! oww...thx4 your explanation...=D@jerk Thanx soo much upon your awesome discovery!! that is sweet info indeed...!  just pray that I`ll do well in my upcoming mocks and the external exam >.< `coz I know that the entry requirement is highhhhh ~~~ |

QUOTE(minshuen @ Aug 30 2009, 12:37 PM) erm..i would like to ask that is it true that SAM and AUSMAT can be used to apply for private instituition such as nottingham malaysia campus and IMU? of course you can...I`m currently doing ausmat...But since Nott is an UK`s institution...if you`re holding an Aust qualification...make sure that your result is high... perhaps > TER 90..that`s what my programme director told me..

yeaa it`s true...and it depends on the quality of school also..
for example those schools which offer F6 in my hometown are pretty suckzz..that`s why I don`t even consider bout STPM at all.. Whereas colleges will have a better quality...that`s the advantage |

err...i think is those who works with drugs and medical products to ensure their quality control, product development, formulation, production, management, research and technical sales including medical detailing.

Added on May 19, 2010, 6:31 pm QUOTE(baoz @ May 19 2010, 08:35 AM) I've forgotten my friend's Atar cos she's graduated for some time now. I think the requirements would have changed too. it varies from year to year...basically depends on which uni you wanna go...Basically for Australian Matric, you need a TER of 90. @zstan : you coming to Monash in 2011? yay good! apparently uq requires a higher atar than usyd,unisa, utas and monash.. atar around 94 will somehow guarantee a place for you  This post has been edited by polaris91: May 19 2010, 06:31 PM |

QUOTE(jerk @ May 20 2010, 10:29 AM) @polaris91 thanks for the info =] mind to tell me you`re in which year now ?first year might be quite boring with most of the units you taking mostly serve to provide you with the foundation for the subsequent unit. sometimes you just fail to see the relevance. having said that, different sch of pharmacy emphasize different things during first year. im now in 1st year pharm and the semester exam is just around the corner...goshh im so freaking nervous coz heaps of things need to be memorized =S |

QUOTE(loveless90 @ May 21 2010, 02:38 PM) BTW this is just something i heard during my interview in notts the other day... in nsw australia..pharmacists have a range of names..the lecturer (my interviewer) told me that pharmacists in the uk are often regarded as chemists. uk ppl often say ' i want to consult a chemist'' rather than 'i want to consult a pharmacist' when they want to go to the pharmacy. apothecary = compounding chemist = dispensing chemist = pharmaceutical chemist = homoeopathic chemist = druggist = pharmaceutist = pharmacist  |

QUOTE(AP.L @ Nov 3 2010, 11:30 AM) I am hesitated bcause i dunno i should pursue this field or not. this is an interesting question..how you guys knew that yours ambition is bcome a pharmacist? i always wanted to get into any health-related degrees and my choices were medicine and pharmacy.. i chose pharmacy because i`d get to study chemistry and pharmaceutical science in depth while so far i think they are quite interesting... i didn`t choose medicine because it`s time consuming and i know the workload is higher than pharmacy..i can`t bear it  |
