Visit our <a href="http://pharmacy.ucsf.edu/pharmd/admissions/steps/1/academic/verify/capri/">California private colleges/universities page</a> to see if your school is included!</li> <li><b>Out-of-State colleges/universities:</b> We have course lists for approximately 400 out-of-state colleges. Visit our <a href="http://pharmacy.ucsf.edu/pharmd/admissions/steps/1/academic/verify/outofstate/">Out-of-state colleges/universities page</a> to see if your school is included! </li> </ol>As you can imagine, with the volume of applications we receive, we are no longer able to update or create new Approved Course Lists for applicants entering the<b> initial stage </b>of our admissions process. Instead, we ask that prospective students use their <i>best professional judgment</i> to determine whether completed/in-progress/planned coursework meets our academic prerequisite requirements. In order to assist you, we have provided detailed information on our website to help you determine what courses are acceptable in meeting our requirements.<br /> <br /> Please visit our web page for more information on <a href="http://pharmacy.ucsf.edu/pharmd/admissions/steps/1/academic/">Academic Prerequisites</a>.<br /> <br /> Also on our website is information related to<a href="http://pharmacy.ucsf.edu/pharmd/admissions/steps/1/academic/verify/ap/"> Advanced Placement (AP) scores</a>.<br /> <br /> Please keep in mind that our academic prerequisites are fairly easy to determine. For the most part, we align our requirements with a pre-med/health track. It’s not our intent to require obscure or unique courses to fulfill our requirements.<br /> <br /> When submitting your application, you should make your <i>best professional judgment</i> in completing UCSF’s Supplemental Application (which asks you to list courses that fulfill our requirements.) We will conduct a complete academic review of those individuals who are admitted into the program. At that time we will determine whether specific courses satisfy our requirements.<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilN2BMzNx7QEFg5jDmDN8SDQGTQZ77xazqIgTzClIz3g_ZnQ-Ff2CwmKmfCSOY5VBA5B2LDb5iwqVThHc3keKw_sQi54es21qyqlTeb7fJvXS8CqclyISrAifclAetT56vnXzb_7qfCcs/s1600/UCSF_Sup_App.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilN2BMzNx7QEFg5jDmDN8SDQGTQZ77xazqIgTzClIz3g_ZnQ-Ff2CwmKmfCSOY5VBA5B2LDb5iwqVThHc3keKw_sQi54es21qyqlTeb7fJvXS8CqclyISrAifclAetT56vnXzb_7qfCcs/s320/UCSF_Sup_App.jpg" /></a></div> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <div class='reactions'> <span class='reaction-buttons'> </span> </div> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn'>Joel W.

She won the California Patient Counseling Competition (February 2010), which qualified her to compete nationally. The national event was first held in 1984 with the goal of encouraging student pharmacists to become better patient educators. It is sponsored by CVS/Caremark in conjunction with the United States Public Health Service.</span></div><h3 style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: small;"><cufon alt="Interview" class="cufon cufon-canvas" style="height: 16px; width: 74px;"><cufontext>Interview:</cufontext></cufon></span></h3><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><abbr title="University of California, San Francisco">UCSF</abbr> Student Pharmacist Krystal Pong discusses her recent patient counseling competition with Susan Levings, <abbr title="University of California, San Francisco">UCSF</abbr> School of Pharmacy Associate Dean of Planning and Communications. </span></div><h4 style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Krystal, congratulations on winning the 2010 National Patient Counseling Competition! How does it feel? </span></h4><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I am ecstatic. I am so happy I was able to represent <abbr title="University of California, San Francisco">UCSF</abbr> at the national level and hope this gets more students excited to participate next year because this was such an enriching experience for me.</span></div><h4 style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">You won the California competition in February. What happened when you got to the nationals in Washington, <abbr title="District of Columbia">DC</abbr>?</span></h4><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">There were just over 100 other students representing their schools of pharmacy participating in the national competition. The first round was two days, and they announced the top 10 who were to compete again in a final round. We were given the patient's profile, the new prescription, and the chance to prepare for counseling with the patient on Septra for the first round, and Tricor for the second round. The patient was an actor who was careful to be consistent for all of the consultations. </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">For the final round on Sunday, March 15 we were each given five minutes to prepare our consultation with access to references and five minutes to talk to the patient. During the preparation time, I outlined what I was going to say to the patient. Since we are given a list of the 10 possible drugs, I researched all of the drugs ahead of time so I could use the prep time to organize my thoughts and mentally prepare. </span></div><h4 style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Did you also prepare before heading to Washington?</span></h4><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Before I left for Washington <abbr title="District of Columbia">DC</abbr>, I emailed everyone I knew who competed in the PCC (Patient Counseling Competition). Eric Ip, <abbr title="University of California, San Francisco">UCSF</abbr> alum, won the national competition a few years ago and was kind enough to give me some advice, as well as Joy Meier, who mentored me over the summer and also won the national competition. And Troy Drysdale, Class of 2009, reviewed my consultations with me in detail and helped me find ways to improve my communication skills and gain confidence for the competition. I also practiced counseling on every drug--multiple times. And finally, I read and reread the words of encouragement I got from my friends, classmates, family, and faculty before I competed to give me inspiration. </span></div><h4 style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Describe the patient case you were given.</span></h4><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The patient was a sweet older woman who was prescribed Tricor and currently taking Lipitor. Tricor is a fibrate and Lipitor is a statin, both lipid-lowering agents. She was confused about her cholesterol levels and why she had to be on an additional lipid-lowering drug. When I told her this medication was to help control her cholesterol she said, "But I thought my doctor said I have good cholesterol." So we took a few moments to discuss the difference between good and bad cholesterol. I also was sure to carefully go over the side effects with her because taking Tricor and Lipitor puts her at a higher risk of muscle pain and weakness. </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; margin: 20px auto; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><img alt="counseling with Pong" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_s230wcLW8cbScjqtJUSNs5saBa-Y0oeJ7bWoJJQwA98O20OseYL62P--wIlkIyGUWSq0XyVRxVsWTK_FrHD5Pcy1jsezDCr_vJ-lTuD_S-q2A=s0-d"></span> <span style="font-size: small;"><br /> Counseling session during National Patient Counseling Competition</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Unlike at the state competition, where we presented before a panel of judges, at nationals, I presented to the patient in a video room that simulated a pharmacy. There were bright lights and a video camera rolling and the judges review the tapes afterwards. In some ways, the scenario felt very real because I got the patient profile, the prescription, and a realistic patient. I was very nervous before we started, but when the patient and I began talking it felt more like a real consultation than a competition. </span></div><h4 style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">During this whole process from the state to the national competition what was the one thing that stands out most vividly?</span></h4><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Actually, two things stand out to me: One, I learned how supportive the <abbr title="University of California, San Francisco">UCSF</abbr> community is--faculty, staff, my classmates, and friends--they were all tremendously kind and supportive. And two, I learned how important it is to not be your "own worst enemy" by having a self-defeating attitude, but to instead believe in yourself and allow yourself to succeed. I will carry this lesson with me throughout the rest of my life.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggJXyfkiU18mBPcUv29JccC2LSq0L64WNwFwahHmd5a6wwiXM6fGCMJ-D17noRdc-_Hhn4iwyLn1QN_l5YapfvGuI3D_lKOXzQENCl0L1W2FVVQeOc6R5GqkSDH60gYpM3ZY9bO3FGcc4/s1600/040201f.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggJXyfkiU18mBPcUv29JccC2LSq0L64WNwFwahHmd5a6wwiXM6fGCMJ-D17noRdc-_Hhn4iwyLn1QN_l5YapfvGuI3D_lKOXzQENCl0L1W2FVVQeOc6R5GqkSDH60gYpM3ZY9bO3FGcc4/s320/040201f.jpg" /></a></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /> </div><div class="imagecredit" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Image credits: © 2010 Sam Shimomura</span></div> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <div class='reactions'> <span class='reaction-buttons'> </span> </div> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn'>Joel W.
