Hello, all. I have no intention of going to Pharmacy School, but my wife is seriously considering it. She goes to school part-time right now, but has also worked full-time to put me through school. I graduate in May, so now it's her turn.
She will have 73 credits at the end of the semester, but would need to start at the beginning with the sciences, so she'll have about three more years of undergrad work. Her GPA is currently 3.38, but she's a little more focused now than she was 15 years ago, so I'd expect that to rise (she has a 4.0 since she went back). She also has 15 years experience as a Tech in retail, mail order, and hospital pharmacies (inpatient and outpatient). She has hit the ceiling and is thinking about taking the plunge.
Any advice for her? How much weight would her experience play in admissions? Also, how important would getting a Bachelor's be?
