Probably a stupid question but what do you think of the outlook on pharmacy field will be 5 years from now like in 2018-2019? Do you think it will still be very saturated and hard to find a job?
Oh Jesus..
Did you miss the other 30 threads dedicated to this topic? hehe. Let's just say there are a lot of schools opening and a lot more planned. The number of schools opening won't be quelled until the number of applicants starts to fall, and that won't happen until this idea that the pharmacy profession is a bastion of easy money abates. That likely will probably start happening sometime around 2019, but the effects of over-saturation from both the number of schools opened and massive number of graduating pharmacists will be felt for decades.
Im always hearing stuff like that the economy will fix itself from being saturated or something like that.
It depends on who is giving you this information. Please don't tell me it's admission counselors.
It's possible for the job market to recover once new schools stop popping up and prospective students choose other professions due to the poor employment prospects in the field.

and the 65+ pharmacists start retiring

Terrible. Over saturated with no jobs or hope of employment for any graduating pharmacist. Coming out of school with 100K plus in loans and no way to pay it off. Anybody pursuing pharmacy from scratch now has to have a personality disorder. Nothing but dark times lie ahead for pharmacy profession.
