Hey guys
I was just wondering if there are any foreign graduate Pharmacists that have actually completed all the requirements needed to become a US Pharmacist and are currently working? It's a long process, and taking longer then my actual degree back home! Would love to hear from those that have been successful (or those that know of anyone that have) to give me some encouragement!

there are many foreign grads who are pharmacists in USA. especially in California and Texas. yes the procedure is long but you can do it. the Naplex is a tough exam and you have to be thorough with pharmacy knowledge to get the minimum of 75.
also, there are visa hassals for foreign grads. but the percentage of foreign grads has depleted as there are many USA trained pharmacists.
