Hey everyone,
I'm in somewhat of a dilemma, I start med school in 3 weeks and am seriously doubting my path. Maybe it's a case of cold feet but I have always been interested in going into pharmacy. I find pharmacology a fascinating field of medicine. However, for some reason, whether it was blindness to my trepidation toward medicine or external family pressures, I ended up going the pre-med route. That said, in the possible event that I discover medical school/medicine is not the life for me, I was wondering if you guys have heard of people dropping out of med school and getting into a pharmD school? I dont really have any pharm experience. All of my volunteering has been in hospitals/hospice care and I've only shadowed MD/DO's. I have a reasonable cgpa of 3.6 wt a science gpa of 3.7, and a degree in biology. I greatly appreciate any advice you may have for me. Have a safe 4th of July!
