fitting in interviews

So I'm so excited because I got my first interviews coming up 1/13 and 1/18. The thing is I think I'm going to start having a problem fitting them into my schedule since I applied to 13 schools. I have classes Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday (labs on thursday and friday that I can't miss) and work Tuesday, Saturday and Sunday. So bascially I have to keep taking days off work to do them. Took two days off for the first one and two days off for the second one (both of them are out of state so there is no way I can do it in just one day). I'm afraid I'm going to end up losing my job and will be in a bad financial situation. Anyone else with that problem?

Did you let your boss know that you're applying for pharmacy school? Sometimes if they know, they will be accommodating to your interviews cause we all know they don't usually fall within the same time. Anyway, if worse comes to worse, see if you can find someone to cover your shifts while you're away. Good luck👍

Maybe you can work out something with your professors so you don't have to miss work so much. Mine were pretty accomodating when I explained the situation - one let me finish my lab two days early so I could miss the next one (as long as I provided her with proof of my interview) and another let me take one of my finals a day early so I could fly out for my interview.
