So im currently in a PhD program. im in my 3rd year getting ready to take my preliminaries and qualifiers. Im at a stand still because i dont know what route i want to take when i graduate. i know that i dont what to do a post doc. I like research but i dont see myself doing it everything for the rest of my life. I want to have options in my career which is why i was thinking about pursuing a PharmD once i finish. I know that pharmacy is saturated but i do not want to do into retail. I just want that background drug knowledge that i didnt get with the PhD and also have the option that if i want to practice, teach or conduct research i have that option. Any advice?
 
Do you have any experience in pharmacy? Are you at all interested in being a pharmacist? The PharmD degree was designed for people who want to be pharmacists. It will help you achieve that goal but very little else. If you don't want to be a pharmacist, getting a PharmD is a waste of your time and money.
