hey guys,
My pharmacy school costs $43k a year, which is unwarranted considering the quality of education I've received so far. It's been good on orientation day and the month following, but after that staff has been lazy. The open door policy they claim actually doesn't exist--most professors are hard to reach, and everything is crammed in during an 8 hour class session. Everyone goes home after classes are done. I don't think it's responsible to gamble away $200k just for education.
On top of that I have been looking for pharmacy intern positions and it has been extremely tough. I was rejected from one company already after a phone interview. I am still trying, but there are only a few number of chains that you can work for. If you get rejected from one recruiter then it makes it that much harder to find something.
I am not sure if I should just drop out now, or find a cheaper pharmacy school to enroll in?...There are some in the mid U.S that are only 23k a year.
Honestly, I don't know what's going to happen after I get my degree, $200k in debt, and can't find a job because I have no pharmacy experience. Why should I pay this much money for an education when my colleague only has to pay $90k and we both have the same salary/job? .... I feel like I am ruining my life by going this much into debt.
