      Payment usually occurs after your last physical exam. Sometimes they will have the checks ready or they will give you a slip to go pick up the check a couple days after. To see what each study pays, you can go on their website and on the upper right corner it should say "View open studies." Also might want to call them since they don't always post all the studies going on.

        You have to wait thirty days between dosings to do another study...it isnt bad. Not fun though either. Kind of like camp and prison meshed together...

          What they said ^^^^...just give em a call. Then when you come, I shall stick a needle in y0 arm mad tyte JDM style cuz dats how i do 🙂

          BTW, idk if you smoke or not...but MOST (well over 90%) of the studies are non-smoking. There's one going on right now that allows smoking, however, idk if there will be another group of the same study going soon (bring your own computer).

          277-7227 (27-PRACS)

          y0

          BTW, whatever you can fit in the door, bring it (just no food, bottles, mouthwash, pills, etc.) ...bring a tv and an xbox or w/e to play during downtime. They also have internet to use, but it isn't very fast, especially during the day.

            Yea i called them but there are no other studies other than the ones posted online right now. Yeah I understand that most of the studies are non smoking right now but I am quitting come January. Yeah I wish I had an xbox or a tv but I dont. Also, do they have computers there for you to use or do you have to bring your own with you? .....Torbs I heard that if you quit 3 days to a week before your physical that they can't detect it, is that true?? Thanks for all your help!

              Depends on how much you smoke. I would give it 7-10 days to get completely out of your system.

                all you need is 24hrs of non smoking. some carbon may show up in your blood but whose to say its not second hand. thats what the people i know that smoke do it.

                  Doesn't matter if you say its second hand or not. If you have nicotine in your blood they will reject you from the study.

                    you need your own comp. as far as detection goes...i cant say and that's something you need to ask the recruiters. also, TRY NOT to cancel going into a study when you have already done your physical bc it costs $600ish just for your physical...and if you dont do a study within 28 days of the physical, it's a direct loss to pracs.

                      Don't ask the recruiters cause if they know that you are smoking you can only get into smoking studies and will dictate that on your profile from what i remember. I lived off pracs studies from jan to may and smoked. Just quit 7-10 days in advance. Worked everytime for me.
