Is a board certification equal to a 1 year residency? I have no desire to do a residency, but really don't want to be just limited to working retail for the rest of my career. Retail for the immediate future would be no problem, however I would like to keep my options open. I'm planning on working 3 years as a retail pharmacist and then hopefully sit for the Board Certification in Pharmacotherapy (After intense studying). This way I can start making the money I want right away, while still being able to get Board Certified , which I've heard is equivalent to doing a residency...any thoughts?
