I took a LACSA class and learn about storytelling methods, such as, phase of storytelling, and how to make resources by using various applications. Finally, I made my own story and draw the simple diagram of it by using PowerPoint.

Also, on Wednesday, I had a pharmacy introduction session and had a tour of other buildings in the university. I went to laboratory and also I saw a sim model. It was an interesting experience because I was so amazed about looking at the sim model which moves and acts like a human.

Mock Interviews

jhwangbo1 — 2024-11-27 11:41:58 UTC

Multiple Mini Interview

What I want to learn Pharm interviews

I would like to learn about how to deal with sudden problems and staying calmness under the pressure.

Reflection on interview preparedness

jhwangbo1 — 2025-01-29 14:46:29 UTC

I prepared for a pharmacy school interview by partnering with a medical student to practice interview questions. We took turns asking and answering questions, simulating a real interview experience. After the practice session, we provided feedback to each other, and my partner gave me particularly valuable advice.

One of the questions (Question 3) asked about the skills I had developed related to pharmacy, while another (Question 4) asked about the essential skills required for a pharmacist. I initially answered them separately, treating them as distinct questions. However, my partner suggested that I should connect the two—highlighting a skill I have learned and explaining how it is crucial for a pharmacist.

This feedback helped me recognize areas where I needed improvement and how I could strengthen my responses. Overall, the session was incredibly useful in refining my interview skills and making my preparation more effective.

Leadership

jhwangbo1 — 2025-02-05 11:26:30 UTC

Good leadership is the ability to guide, inspire, and influence others toward a shared goal. A great leader possesses a clear vision, strong communication skills, and the ability to make effective decisions. Integrity, accountability, empathy, team working, problem solving, communication and collaborating are also essential qualities, as they help build trust and create a positive work environment.

Motivation for being successful

jhwangbo1 — 2025-02-12 11:59:06 UTC

Success is often driven by three key motivators: personal growth, passion, and financial stability.

Personal growth is about continuously learning and improving, pushing oneself to overcome challenges and develop new skills. It gives a sense of progress and fulfillment, making hard work feel meaningful.

Passion plays a crucial role in staying motivated, as enjoying what you do makes even difficult tasks feel rewarding. It keeps people engaged and driven, even when they face setbacks.

Lastly, financial stability provides security and the freedom to make choices without constant worry. It allows individuals to focus on their goals while ensuring a comfortable and stable life for themselves and their loved ones.

These three factors work together to make me being successful.

Near wins

jhwangbo1 — 2025-03-05 11:58:42 UTC

Near win means a situation where I come very close to success but fall achieving the final goal. It’s not a complete failure, but rather an almost success.

This can help me to improve such areas:

my career

my academic work

Regarding my career, when I do not get an offer from the interview, I can improve my interview skills by supplementing my insufficient points.

Regarding my academic work, when I don't get the best result, I can improve my results by keep revising on my study.

Communication & Collaboration

jhwangbo1 — 2025-03-19 11:36:27 UTC

Through learning about "Communication & Collaboration," I gained a deeper understanding of the importance of effective communication and teamwork. Clear communication allows individuals to express their opinions while respecting others’ views. Collaboration is essential for achieving common goals, requiring each person to contribute their role while fostering trust and mutual support among team members. This learning experience has been valuable in improving my teamwork and communication skills. Additionally, this skills are important to all jobs including Pharmacists who are working with various types of people.
