Hello everyone. I was just recently accepted into Wayne State University's (Detroit, MI) PharmD program and I am very ecstatic about it. However, now I am wondering about what my next step should be. I've heard some of the P1 and P2 students at my interview day mention something about applying for an internship right after you get accepted. Should I go through with this? Or would it be better to wait until after my P2 year to get an internship since the P1 year is just essentially a review of the pre-requisite courses from undergrad? P2 is the year where students start learning the technicalities of pharmacy as well as the drugs/medications in general. I hear a lot of people say not to wait too long to get an internship because it gets progressively more difficult the longer you wait. However, it doesn't make sense to make to get an internship in pharmacy without evening learning anything about the medications prior (P1). What do you guys think?
Overall, my main questions are:
1) When would be the right time to apply for an internship?
2) Internship or pharmacy technician?
