application essay
SDN Members don't see this ad. (About Ads)
I wrote my application Pharmcas essay already but I feel like it doesn't really "grab" the reader. It seems to have a typical, answer the question kind of beginning although the content of the essay is quite unique (my experiences that is) Do you guys think that the essay needs to have a really good " Lead In" so that people will keep reading it. I was also wondering if anyone whose already been accepted to Pharmacy School would be willing to share their application essay with me. Thanks! |

They are going to read the whole essay anyway. As long as the overall content is good, you should be fine. I would be glad to read it for you if you want some individual feedback. Feel free to PM me.

I haven't written my essay yet, so I can't say that I know what they're looking for. But for the past 2 semesters I've been an English/Writing tutor so if you need me to look it over I'd be happy to.

Bananaface, please be around next year.
I'd very much value your opinion when my time comes for applications etc.

I talked about relevant issues to pharmacy today, it wasn't difficult to find out what those were because 1) I already worked in a pharmacy and 2) I checked out pharmacy sites to see what their current concerns are. I talked about how pharmacists provide a liason between the patient and the physician and how educating patients and being the final checkpoint for maximizing therapeutic outcomes excited me and that's what I wanted to do. Showing them my knowledge of what pharmacists do - besides being glorified pill-counters and integrating that into my interests was the focus of my essay.
something to chew on...
