Hello Everyone!

I recently graduated with my BA in Speech, Language and Hearing Science. I am currently working as an Audiology Technician but I am doing my research and figuring out that maybe Audiology isn't for me. I have always had an interest in Pharmacy but I am not sure where to start with the application process.

I have a 3.33 cumulative and in my major.

Any advice will help!

Get a list of prerequisites and see what you need to take

I would get a job in a pharmacy to see if it is for you. That way, you don't end up taking out another $200k+ in loans only to find out that the profession is not for you for the second time.

What about getting a masters and becoming an SLP. Use the degree you already paid for, way less schooling, lower cost to attend school, still have a pretty good salary. I know one who makes around 80k per year doing home health visits.

I am applying to SLP but I am just thinking down the line if SLP doesn't work out. I have other interests in other areas so I wanted to know if it was possible.

Possible but I wouldn't recommend going back and taking prerequisite courses at this point. I don't think its worth it financially.
