This question is for those who were pharm techs before going to pharm school.
If my goal is to go to pharmacy school and I have limited time and money, what would be the best way to become a certified pharmacy technician? I believe there are really expensive and long programs that are supposed to be very in depth and provide you with a lot of training, there are cheaper and shorter programs that teach you the basics of what you need to know, and then there is the option of just studying on your own. Is there really a huge difference between these options, in terms how good of a pharm tech you could be?
