Default Need advice for pharmacy school

SDN Members don't see this ad. (About Ads)
I've been working as a med tech in a nursing home but decided to apply for pharmacy school last year. My grades are okay about 3.0 and I'm going to take the Pcat this summer. Should I quit this job and work at a pharmacy instead?

It would be a good idea to gain some pharmacy experience. Retail or Hospital.

Eh, I don't think you need to quit your current job, just find a way to shadow or volunteer in a pharmacy when you can.

Why do you wanna leave med tech? I'm curious because I debated between doing med tech or pharmacy for a while. Definitely don't quit, you can even keep your job and do that part-time while you're in pharmacy school (until you find an internship)

This isn't a career though. Pharmacy would be so that's why I think I'll look into pharmacy jobs. Thanks everyone.
