CollegeDon't do pharm emphasis. I tried really hard just to survive. You have to compete with those genius pre- med students. If i can get back to my first year, i will definitely change my major. Hard work never pays off. Im so glad that I finished everything
How she felt that day determined the class vibe. Lecture slides did not help at all.
This course is extremely hard for me. Tons of materials to memorize for final. It's like a combination of 111physio + 126A.
This course was hard, but mainly because of the topic and amount of things that needed to be memorized. The exams seemed fair though
Listen, she's tough. I can tell she genuinely cares about what she teaches if you ask her questions, but you definitely put the work in for a 5-unit course. The case study groups were already assigned, so idk why she sticks with it. Start that list of drugs to memorize :^)
Her review sheet is completely misleading. Do NOT rely on it. The final focused on obscure drug names and minutiae instead of core concepts. There was an entire section on a drug mentioned ONCE on a slide. It feels like she tries to trick students. Hard work doesn't pay off because the testing is random and unfair. Avoid if possible.
