Should i list my scholarship I've got from high school when I graduated on my resume? by the way i graduated from a four year college already.

Ummmm....no...Its high school. When you graduate pharmacy school no one will care about your grades or awards in pharmacy school let alone high school. All a future employer cares about is if you have a license and when can you start....

Agree with above. Once you get into pharmacy school - everything in high school gets put in a shoe box with the lid firmly taped shut & put on the top shelf of the closet of your bedroom in your folk's house.

They'll tell you when to come get it. Until then - forget about it.

Exactly. Good post. Saved me a post and a metaphor. 👍

I'd even add that at some point even some of your college accomplishments become 'the past' and should be the last items typed on a resume for a professional position- that's if there's any room for them (Resumes that are too long are generally sophomoric and eyesores). Include what's relevant and edit according to your resume's objective statement and you will have a professional document. Goodluck.
