I'll apply for Fall 07.

I have:
volunteer in hospital pharmacy
volunteer in nursing home (of the same Veterans Hospital)
Tutor General chemistry at my university for 2 quarters
President of my volunteering club for healthcare related majors


Is that enough? 😕

btw, when i checked Western University (CA), they do not list general Bio as one of the prereqs. So, will they include the general bio series later? Also, is the school gonna take whatever GPA calculated from Pharmcas or they will recalculate it, based on their list of prereqs?

Thanks alot...

Well, I work full time as a Medical Technologist at a hospital. I work 8 days on 6 off (3rd shift). I go to class (I have 2 degrees and I'm finishing a 3rd with pre-pharm pre-reqs) as soon as I get off work, 7am-ish. The days I have off I normally work 3 or 4 of them doing Pharm Tech on 3rd shift (to keep my sleep pattern as normal as I can) at the local 24hour CVS. I have other activities also. I have to beautiful dogs that I take to dog shows. I also do some medical research with my old profs, since I have easy access to medical records at my hospital. Time? Well, I'm one of those people that only sleep about 3-5 hours a night because I'm so type A personality and hyperactive, not because of circumstance. Being type A and hyper used to hurt me alot because I used it for mischeif and other non-useful things, but now I'm older and use it for the right things.
