f. Pharmacy experience obtained
i have worked at Pavilions as a pharmacy tech since June 09

g. Date of application submission (PharmCAS/primary and secondary)
submitted my pharmcas app today actually (except they still havent got all my transcripts or my letters of rec yet) so hopefully those will arrive in the next few days
havent started my supplementals - but am planning on getting most done this week.

h. Number of LORs and source of LORs
3 total
2 from pharmacists - they will both be super strong
and then 1 from my physio professor this one will also be strong (but the only issue is this is from a community college professor because I have been out of usc for a year and didnt form a close enough relationship with any of my teachers there, so i am worried this will effect me)


i. Non-pharmacy work and/or volunteer experience

worked as a student athletic trainer for 3 years; health tutor to kids; worked on research project; hospital volunteer for about 4 years

j. Self-perception of interview skills
i think i am strong in this aspect, many others have echoed this sentiment

k. Overall impression of personal statement quality
i always stress about writing and never think it is good enough; but, i will go with it is probably a little above average


thanks for any input =)
Lol...Michigan State does not have a pharmacy school. Do you realize this?

Otherwise, looks good...
