How to stay focused when studying.
Staying focused while studying can be challenging, but here are some tips that might help:
Record Yourself Studying: Set up your webcam or phone camera to record a video of yourself studying. This creates accountability and can help you stay focused.
Use Focusmate: This tool pairs you with a real-life accountability partner. You must turn on your webcam during the study session, which can help you stay on task.
Prepare Mentally: If you don’t feel like starting work, take a minute to prepare yourself mentally. Set a timer for a minute and tell yourself that you’ll start work when the timer goes off.
Eliminate Distractions: Reduce or get rid of as many distractions as possible. This could include moving to a quiet area, turning off notifications on your phone, or closing out of non-essential programs on your computer.
Drink Coffee in Small Doses: Caffeine can positively affect sustained attention, but it’s important to consume it in moderation.
Have a Study Plan: Organize your study plan and break it into small steps.
Use Smart Learning Techniques: Employ effective study techniques that work best for you.
Stay Fueled and Hydrated: Make sure you’re eating and drinking enough. Being hungry or dehydrated can affect your ability to concentrate.
Prioritize Sleep: Regular sleep is essential for maintaining focus. Aim for seven to eight hours of sleep each night.
Set Goals: Having clear goals for each study session can give you a sense of direction and make it easier to stay focused.
Remember, everyone is different, so what works for one person might not work for another. It’s important to try different strategies and see what works best for you. Good luck with your studies! 📚

How to be a US Pharmacist if you’re a Philippine Registered Pharmacist.
Tumblr media
(Overview of the process ⬆️)
Maraming nagtatanong sa page ko kung paano daw maging US Pharmacist as a Filipino Pharmacist. Kaya, I'll just create a one big post about it. Oo nga pala, it's really hard to get a work visa/sponsorship from the US kung foreign pharmacist ka.
So, kung wala kang way na makapunta ng US to legally work (like a petition, etc) it'll be difficult (Unlike sa mga nurses). I'm no visa expert and won't be able to answer any at all.
but if you're already in the US (as a citizen/permanent resident) and you have a BS Pharmacy degree from the Philippines, here's for you!
First, let's talk about qualifications:
1. You have to be a licensed pharmacist in your home country first. kailangan, board passer ka muna sa Philippines. HINDI REQUIRED ang ANY work experience to qualify for the exam.
2. Your education should be a MINIMUM of 5- years if you graduated after Jan 1, 2003. Kapag 4 years lang natapos, you'll have to go back to school for another year (CLINICAL PHARMACY) or PharmD (plus 2 years). NO EXCEPTIONS. again, di naman mandatory ang pharmD. Okay na yung clinical pharmacy. Also, Not MS/PhD kasi i-evaluate siya case by case and hindi guaranteed to qualify.
Pero kung grumaduate ka before ng Jan 1, 2003, you can take the exam with a 4-year degree as long as you passed the other requirements like TOEFL, good standing w/ your license sa PH, etc.
After meeting the education requirements, no need to study again in the US.
For me, I graduated sa CEU-Manila noong 2015. Kulang yung 4- years na degree ko kaya I went back to school noong 2020-2021 (Clinical pharmacy). I'll link below my experience a full-time student sa Philippines while also working full-time in Texas.
Let's talk about the exams you need to take:
1. TOEFL (ENGLISH TEST) - there are minimum scores you need to achieve. Kahit offered ang TOEFL sa Philippines, it's only acceptable by the US kapag tinake mo siya mismo sa US territories or parts of Canada. You can take this exam with a US tourist visa. TOEFL ha, not IELTS. You can take this anytime kasi 2 years naman ang validity niya.
2. FPGEE (Foreign Pharmacy Graduate Equivalency Exam). Itong exam na ito ay para sa mga Pharmacists educated outside of the USA. Kahit sa Philippines ka grumaduate, or UK, or Canada, Australia, SAME EXAM for EVERYONE. You need to pass this exam in order for you to INTERN sa desired state mo. This exam is usually administered ONCE A YEAR DURING FALL. You can take this exam with a tourist visa. Btw, it is important to say na kahit na qualified ka na to take the FPGEE, it doesn't guarantee your US tourist visa acceptance. kaya plan accordingly.
question about how to apply? please join the PH FPGEE support group. I already posted the detailed instructions on how to file your application. here's the link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/filipinofpgeesupport/
Next step is INTERNSHIP. Once you passed TOEFL and FPGEE you're given an FPGEC certification which is a requirement for foreign pharmacists to start Internship! With internship, US tourist visa is not allowed anymore. You need to have a work visa na. Yung required hours ay depende sa state kung saan ka mag-wwork. Example sa California ay 1500 hours. Sa Texas ay 1740 hours. CHECK your RESPECTIVE state's Board of Pharmacy.
3. NAPLEX (North American Pharmacist Licensure Examination). Ito pa lang mismo ang US Pharmacy Boards. I've shared to you my experience when I took it. Ito yung exam na tinatake ng mga FPGEE passers after internship and PharmD graduates ng US. Please see my posts about sa details ng exam and my experiences. I'll link them below.
4. The last exam is MPJE/CPJE. Multistate Pharmacy Jurisprudence Examination® aka the LAW EXAM. Kahit naipasa mo yung NAPLEX pero hindi yung MPJE, you won't be able to practice as a US Pharmacist. This is a very tricky exam and it should not be taken lightly.
after you take these exams + Internships, you're now a US Pharmacists!! Good luck everyone and I encourage you to read the official BULLETINS only from the NABP site. Sila lang ang naglalabas ng official requirements and wag maniwala sa mga sabi-sabi.
If you have any questions except VISA, feel free to message me as I have taken all the exams na. I'm here to help yo Pero before you ask anything, please read this "frequently asked questions": https://theilustrado.com/faqforcc Any repeating questions won't be answered kasi nakalagay naman na diyan. 🙂
Here are the links: I included the review duration, review materials, prep, experience, etc.

03 / 30 : Your favorite motivational quote.

* 🍃₊˚┊ Minimalist Studyblr Challenge
Week 1 : 3. Write about something that sparks joy! it doesn’t have to be study-related!
Have you ever gone out and walk aimlessly, listening to some crime podcast without realizing you've walked a mile non-stop?
It's always the little things that sparks joy for me. It's the realization I've achieved my step count but also have a peaceful mind to myself without worrying about how I walk or the pace of my steps. It's also seeing myself smile at me at the mirror. It's seeing my friends from back home seeing my messages. It's reading and/or listening to audiobooks that may or may not intrigued me. It's having enough money to eat for lunch. It's romanticizing little things about life.
Life itself sparks joy, and I hope more people will see that too. I hope as you read this, you'll see that it somehow sparks joy for you too.

QOTD: how do you make your bullet journal spread?
answer: for my weekly spread, i usually follow a theme and this one’s obviously in red. i print and cut-out my desired stickers. customarily, i first put the stickers then do the labelling. sometimes i like it simple & clean but if i want to fill out the empty spaces i just draw & doodle.
life update: only a week and month before 2019 ends and i hope you all are doing fine. lot of things are happening in my life right now, i’m exhausted but i’m hanging in there. trying to be productive as i can be and telling myself that this too shall pass. i may not know what’s happening in my life right now but deep inside i know all of these will make sense. so, keep your eyes on the prize! you can do this, you got this. goodluck studynerds! 🤓

Another thing that I like as a researcher is presenting my study and people telling me that they actually understand it and get what I mean.

My desk situation during a non-cramming season of grad school. Usually the day after a major exam. I added an extra unnecessary thing on my desk— a mini fridge. Where I store a soda, chocolate, yakult, banana/strawberry milk (korean), cider, and some skincare. Lol. All in one.
I’m also starting to study for the fpgee. Wish me luck and hoping for a productive days as we draw nearer to the end of year 2021!

im working on accomplishing small tasks because im starting to feel overwhelmed with all the requirements that i need to do especially because our finals are coming up next week. im trying not to push myself too much and just check off my to-do list, one at a time.
remember to take things lightly, and don’t punish yourself or feel bad for not being productive. lightly, lightly, we’ll get there ✨
