Hello! Unfortunately, I don't know the answer to your question. Who is administering your FPGEE? I would contact them for individual point breakdowns for that exam. I'm sorry I don't know more!

Absolutely! I'm glad they have been helpful, and congratulate you on making it thusfar in your career within am care! It was so tough for me to study while in residency. Fortunately, I still passed with minimal study time during residency, so I would say hold onto hope that you will to! :)

Hi, I'm glad you like them! Thanks for the question. I would wait until you're through the first week of your job to let your boss know, unless your boss explicitly asks if you need any time off in the coming months. During your first week, I would also look at the time off policy for your job, and how far in advance you have to let your boss know about PTO or put in a request. To be honest, 3 weeks is a long time to ask any boss to not work at all. I would try and negotiate a part-time schedule and see if you can care for your mom for half a day, and work the other half, at least a few days each wee. I'm not sure what setting you're working in, but if it's a pharmacy with other technicians, interns, or pharmacists, you can negotiate with them as well to try and swap scheduled times so you can have time to take care of your mom. Hope this helps, please let me know if you have further questions!

@@pharmresidents Thank you so much, the job is remote but you have to be in VA to carry it out and my mother is overseas that's why

@@lamiselhassani221 Oh, so you can't work while caring for your mom. In that case, ask about the policy. If they ask why you want it, then disclose that you need 3 weeks off to care for your mom. Continue to express your interest in the job and that you will be back after. Try to negotiate with them and others schedules as I mentioned. It may mean working more hours when you get back.

What do you mean by course? Have you passed the exam required for foreign graduates and are looking for a residency program?

Are you interested in math for pharmacists or pharmacy technicians?

I'm so happy to hear, congratulations!!

Glad they are helpful! It sounds like your school is a 3 year program if your APPE rotations end on year 3. If you can request changes to have at least 1 ambulatory care rotation before residency applications, I would request this. If not, just know that not everyone has these opportunities and RPDs are aware of student limitations on rotation selection. I would look for opportunities to shadow am care pharmacists, network with them, and reflect in your application why you are passionate about ambulatory care. Most ambulatory care pharmacy positions require two years of residency. This typically involves PGY1 training in a hospital or community residency, followed by a PGY2 residency in ambulatory care. In some areas, it is possible to complete a 1 year training focused in ambulatory care and obtain a position right after, but these are the minority of cases based on my experience/understanding.

@@pharmresidents Thank you so much for the quick response and for answering my questions! I'll try to find opportunities to get in touch with ambulatory pharmacists to connect with them or volunteer! :)

I think I read the calculations chapter in RxPrep twice, at the start of my studying, and then 1 day before the test. I did all of the practice questions, then repeated the ones I thought were challenging the night before.

Hello, I’m glad my videos are helpful! I used this video preparing for PPS interviews, I’ll link it below. I would say they are certainly more formal than just a Q&A session, but not as formal as an actual interview. I would be prepared with at least 3-4 questions, and know the general structure of each job and/or program. What I think makes candidates stand out is preparation, enthusiasm, and being honest/genuine about their interests and what they’re looking for. Don’t be afraid to make small talk and not be “100% business” the entire time. Get to know them as people a little bit, it will help you and them make the best decision. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jqrQpHd6r956jq8

Hello, I'm not sure how many additional exams you would have to take other than the NAPLEX and MPJE for the state(s) you practice in. I believe there is an exam which you take to ensure the pharmacy school you took out of the USA meets qualifications for USA pharmacy schools, it might be the foreign licensure exam, but I'm not sure. I would ask your pharmacy school if they have additional information for past students who have worked in the USA post graduation.

@@pharmresidents Thank you 🥰

Hi, I am not on instagram, sorry!

@@pharmresidents thank you for your reply

Hi Sarath, can you be more specific as to what kind of guidance you're looking for?

I'm sorry you're struggling, the first month can be overwhelming, but I hope you find a break after NAPLEX and your orientation ends. Hang in there and good luck!

Hello, sorry I do not. I would suggest contacting ASHP, here is an article that may be helpful. I wish I knew more! www.ashp.org/news/2012/03/15/non-us-pharmacists-face-residency-hurdles?loginreturnUrl=SSOCheckOnly&ct=6217f330d9991d98d88902f9066a035c792045315320e3ee2a604b2f0d743b1e87e0730a2cb1e12269580bef901fc9e893a2dce369d95f86aab8297253fe9ea2

Hello, I would take a look at the video I posted earlier on this channel where I talk about how I passed the NAPLEX. I would also ask others who passed this year (other colleagues or former classmates) since the test can change year to year and you want to make sure you're hearing the most up to date information. Hope this helps!

Hi, do you mean pharmacy school courses facilitated through the LinkedIn platform? If so, I don't believe so. LinkedIn is a social network platform that is geared towards professionals and careers.

Hi, I would reach out to NABP or the board of pharmacy to see why they didn't approve it. I'm sorry this happened, hope you're able to find the next best step!

I reached out to the board. They wanted me to do 1500 training hours in order to be able to take Indiana mpje.

@@ghiyathsebai Those hours should be reported by your pharmacy school to the board of pharmacy that you completed as part of your IPPE and APPE rotations. Have you reached out to your school of pharmacy yet?

Thank you so much, please let me know if there is any specific topic you would like to hear from me!

Sorry, I do not!

Nope, sorry, just KZbin.

Best of luck! Not everyone gets burned out, others find a balance of work and stepping away to relax. I am looking to actively make changes to my mindset for PGY2 residency to have a more healthy experience. I hope your mood improves, and my guess is it will as you meet new people and get to start your profession. Let me know if you want any further info on this topic as I will be including PGY2 information on this channel!

Glad you liked the video! The questions from RxPrep are more specific, and in general more difficult. But some NAPLEX questions came out of no where in my opinion. Still, I wouldn't choose anything else besides RxPrep to study (their book, videos, and quizzes/practice tests).

@@pharmresidents Wanted to say thanks again! I just received my NAPLEX results and I passed on my first attempt! I have my Texas MPJE next week and I'm hoping for the same results. Good luck on your PGY2.

@@BayArea9ers Congrats, best of luck! :)

Thank you! Unfortunately I don't have quizlet anymore (at least I don't believe it's active). I would suggest you look up Quizlets for 2022 if you're studying this year since my quizlets may be out of date, even a year later.

YAY! I'm so glad, congratulations!! The residency process is tough and I make these videos to help others who go through it to get to the career they want. I'm happy I could support you and plan on continuing to post videos through my PGY2 experience/process.
