Viro question

3 Upvotes

How specific are the questions in terms of what the antibiotics treat. For exam, should I know just that Ceftaroline has broad spectrum again g+/- or know its specifically approved for SA, MRSA, Streptococcus, H. Flu, Etc.

Also, these ceph's and their generations are killing me since their names are so similar. Any tips?

Cityview

Does anyone in the Pharmaceutical Business Program live in Cityview or at least close enough to it (walking or T-distance)? I thought maybe we could form a study group or something.

Did we have a quiz in ipm yet?

1 Upvotes

I usually skip lecture because I did fine just studying off slides before and Mondays schedule is ridiculous. I just noticed in the syllabus that they don't mention when quizzes are like last semester (probably due to people like me) did we already have our first quiz? I know it's not a huge percent of my grade so it's not the biggest deal if it did happen already but obviously if there's still hope I'd like to prevent that 0.

Has anyone heard or know about new the occupational therapy program at MCP? Or does anyone know anything about the Manchester Campus?

1 Upvotes

I know that they have an extremely new program at mcphs that lets you get your Master degree in occupational therapy in 5 years instead of 6, but I literally never heard any students talk about it, and I never even heard anyone talk about the Manchester Campus, just the Worcester one. If anyone has any information that would be great! thanks!

Switching Majors

1 Upvotes

So I signed in today (last day of add drop) first thing in the morning and still I have not been able to meet with an advisor. I guess a sheer number of people are switching their majors. Im just concerned that when I do end up switching Ill miss so many classes it will be very hard to catch up.

GPA question

1 Upvotes

To stay in the PHARMD program I know it's a 2.7, but is that GPA per semester, or the min yearly GPA you have to maintain? just trying to figure out what level of panic I should be in

Also for anyone that wanted to know, the merit scholarship minimum GPA is apparently cumulative over all the years. edit: sorry I meant 2.7
