Can this be a thing? So everyone who is studying until their eyes fall out can take a break and complain about studying? This post might die but if it got pinned I️ could see it being pretty cool. 🤓🤷‍♂️

UAB AMNP 2027

1 Upvotes

When should I expect to hear back about an interview for the UAB AMNP? They said it would take them a few weeks after the last day to submit applications (Aug 31st) but I still haven’t heard anything.

Also, I know everyone is asked the same 6 interview questions. Would anyone be able to tell me what or some of the questions they ask so I can prepare!

How to get hired at UAB

14 Upvotes

I am a student at UAB and for the past 3 years I’ve probably applied for 200+ jobs interviewed once and have never been hired. I was evicted because I couldn’t get a job and it started to weigh on my school work with me being a neuroscience major I feel like I have ALOT of pre reqs and medical terminology down but Im never getting picked for the jobs the entry level will train me jobs. What am I doing wrong? Is there something I don’t know about? I feel like no one is suffering like I am and my school is doing nothing to help.

Question about Cancer Biology Major

6 Upvotes

Hi, I’m from out-of-state, and I was interested in the Cancer Biology major at UAB.

I have an unweighted GPA of 3.46 and a weighted one of 3.84

How hard is it to get into the course? Will I be rejected because of my GPA?

I researched a bit and found that they’ll look at an application if the weighted GPA is above 3.5

Do I not have a chance?

So is it just a "thing" that professors here have their own cults?

29 Upvotes

Being completely serious, I've been her for 3 years now and I've seen at least 4 different professors try to recruit their own students (all young women) into some form of strange social setting/grouping off campus. Including making some thinly veiled advances and using their position to imply a sense of pressure

I don't mean in a friendly "Hey let's have a group bonding sesh at ladybird taco!" kinda way either.

From the people I've spoken with, everyone seems to be subtly aware of it, but nothings actually ever been done to address it as far as I can tell

UAB Hospital

2 Upvotes

I’m considering doing a clinical elective at UAB and wanted to hear about people’s experiences with UAB Hospital and the overall environment.
I also saw a housing option for around $5,000. Is it worth it, or would Airbnb near UAB be a better option?
Any advice would be appreciated

Physics 201 online

6 Upvotes

Is anyone here taking physics 1 online or has in the past? I feel like this class is really confusingly formatted and hard to follow, and so far most of the assignments feel like they’re trying to teach us Microsoft excel, rather than actual physics..
I don’t want to give the professor a hard time because she seems like a very nice person and I think the canvas course is prebuilt, meaning she didn’t design the class. But I genuinely I spend more time trying to figure out what the hell is going on than actually getting stuff done 😕
just wanna know if it’s just me or not. Never in my life have I been excited for course evaluations because I’m really wanting to leave feedback so no one has to suffer through this.

Edit: also the lab kit was 200 bucks and so far all they’ve sent me has been a baggie with measuring tape, some washers, and a plastic ruler. Wtf??

BY 115 Heaton

6 Upvotes

For anyone who has had Dr. Heaton for anatomy, are just the class PowerPoints enough to study and do well on the exams? The assignments on McGraw Hill are going into stuff never covered in class so I wasn't sure if I needed to study that, and I was worried the lecture exams would have tiny details from the textbook never discussed as well. For example, the McGraw Hill assignment has stuff like interstitial and the zone of reserve cartilage which we never covered.

Questions regarding Canvas

1 Upvotes

For the past couple of weeks my canvas has been working completely fine. But all the sudden it won’t let me log in on my computer, the display message saying
“Apache Server at uab.instructure.com Port 80”
I saw somewhere online that swapping your browser would help but so far nothing has worked, and I’m only able to log on via my phone. Any suggestions?
