Title: Medical school?
Post by: adx on April 30, 2009, 12:10:49 AM
Anyone on this board going to medical school?

I am going to school for respiratory therapy.  It is a pretty intense major but i am looking forward to the rewards of having a job in a hospital.

It might not be as hard but they do cram quite a bit at you in a short amount of time.

I return to school in approx. 20 days.
The classes i will be taking are:
Cardiopulmonary A@P
Respitory care and procedures @ Lab.

The fall is much more intense but still summer is pretty intense caused me to drop out last time and i had a cumaltive of 2.65.

there's a school here that offers Resp Therapy, and I have thought about getting into that. It's a short schooling, and really cheap to get into.

Yes it is.

And what is neat is that respiratory is not just respiratory.. It is tied heavily to the cardiopulmonary part's of the body. 

By the way sunlight you said you had Instant messanger what one do you use?

And i would not go to the schools that offer a short respiratory degree program as most likely they are a tech school and i know that places will not hire people that graduate from those places.  With a university you tend to get a much more rounded education and i would rather have a doctor that went to college then a trade school.

yahoo.

all of the systems of the body are so very delicately intertwined with every other system. A&P was my favorite class, and sometimes i still take out that book and learn more. That is one book i will definately keep.

A&P was something I took in high school, and loved. so my cousin [who is a doctor] gave me a college A&P book to learn more, even though I was majoring in Veteranarian Science.

Sunlight what is your yahoo screenie?  (you can send it by pm if you like)

Also a@p is awesome.  There is alot of stuff that you can learn from those type of books.  What types of stuff do you most enjoy reading about?  I like reading respiratory and heart stuff of course.

you're probably referring to Chel, but I like learning about the skin's healing process. And bloodborne pathogens.

I am currently fascinated with the cardiovascular system, and all that has to do with blood. I give a lot of blood on the floor where i work, and its neat to know all these little facts to interest my patients and make them curious about how it all works. :grin:

I love the way it all works together. I love that the skin will heal itself. If not, I'd have a lot of holes in my body. Loved learning abouat A&P, too.

When you look at all these systems working together in one body, even a tiny baby's body, you have to wonder just HOW people can believe it all happened by some cosmic accident. Or that we evolved up into this intelligent design. *Shakes head* Were't no accident. God knew what he was doing.

I went through the 2 year RN nursing program at a community college.  Funny, that all 20 of us got jobs, even though we didn't graduate from a university.......

Never heard of a dr going to trade school either......does that kind of program even exist?
