Aren’t you guys scared of the job market? Seriously...visit the pharmacy forum. It’s not a joke... the new pharmacy Capsule pharmacy in NYC is hiring pharmacists now starting at 28 dollars an hour. That is 60k a year... literally the demand is so low now that they know they can get any new grad working for them at rates that low. It’s freaking horrible what they’re practicing. They’re taking advantage of the terrible job market and know students will work for them because no one else is hiring. Google capsule pharmacy Glassdoor salary for pharmacists if you don’t believe me. This is just one example of what’s happening...

very interesting stuff.

Well, if you go on Glassdoor you can see their estimates of salary. What’s weird is no other company is practicing this yet. Maybe it also estimates pharm tech and other staff salary too? Who knows? Could explain why it’s really low there and not anywhere else.

I go to LIU for my undergrad I am more then Happy to share with you some tips. I am going to LIU Pharmacy School Fall 2018. I also want to create a website with all the info and videos of lectures to help each other study. @DavidPharmacy101 is a tech guy he is working on it. Is a very intense program but totally achievable. Where you from originally? Was your Background? Brown University is great school.

Hi everyone! I will be interviewing at LIU April 20 (second to the last group of interview) And I was wondering if I can get any tips?

My major is Biomedical Engineering at Cornell University GPA 3.45/PCAT 91. Graduating May 2018! Can't wait! I am originally from Chappaqua, NY(no one probably knows this place) hahaha.

Looking forward to meeting the class of 2022.
Hey, I interviewed on March 23rd, we had to discuss a topic with our group and they quietly graded us based on how we led the conversation and if we were open to reason and able to get our point across. The second interview is like a typical group interview where they asked for our strengths and weeknesses and why we chose Pharmacy and specifically LIU. Good luck!!
 
Guys I got into temple Med-school. I will be going to med-school, instead. :)

I still need guidance in getting in Please!
Hey man sorry to hear about your rejection. I think the best course of action is taking 2-years and doing a masters in one of the sciences. Going to class, doing excellent work and really understanding what you are learning. Because I can tell you right now a PharmD is no joke, nothing to play around with. Failure happens, so know yourself, and study hard!
