I don't mean to be rude, but are there any older people (36+) in your class?

I don't know yet... I am finishing my undergrad this semesteer and start pharmacy school Fall 2011... we had a couple of older students than me at the interview though

 

[All4MyDaughter]

Applied - age 30
Started - age 31
Graduating - age 35

I am one of the oldest in my class. I can only think of one or two people (maybe) who are older than I am.

 

[delano2000]

Applied- 22yo
Starting- 23 yo

 

[mcalabr3]

It's not uncommon for an age range of 19-50 of PharmD students...not just the RPh going back to school to earn a PharmD

 

[170]

Just curious 😕

Currently I'm 19. When all my stuff (classes/scheduling/PCAT) goes as planned, I will be 20 when I first apply. Hopefully 21 when I am accepted and start!!

 

[Notecard]

Applied at 20. Starting at 21.

[spacecowgirl]

I was 28 when I graduated and I felt really old compared to my classmates. There were a few people who were my age or older but the majority were much younger with only 2 years pre-pharm whereas I had 4 years + work + pre-reqs.

Now that seems really young

 

[Sparda29]

Applied - 20, 21

One of the youngest in my class.

 

[pinksparkly]

I'll probably be 40+ when I apply. So sad... I have a lot of work ahead of me, but I'm game! 😀 👍

 

[FarmDeeHI]

I applied when I was 23, starting at 24. I would have started sooner if I had made up my mind earlier 😉

Don't be sad. I got in when I am 35, graduate to be 39. I am one of the 3 oldest in my class. My friend's mom got in @ 57.

 

[Passion4Sci]

Yep we have a few "over the hill" folks in my class. 🙂

Late 20s for me, I'll graduate in my 30s. Not exactly what I had planned back in 1999 but hey, whatever.

 

[RxKngToBe]

I'm turning 32 on Monday and I start my 1st yr of pharm school in July. I dont feel old at all. Just for all those that are older, we're considered non-traditional students. Which is not a bad thing, just means that we had other things going on our lives that could've prevented us from starting earlier. Good luck to all current and future pharmacy students!

 

[endurorider]

applied at 20, turned 21 few months in first semester..

and now graduating in one month at the old age of 24 🙂

Am currently 46. When applied 45. You are not old, you are experienced. 😀
