Currently, I am a soph in college looking to go to pharmacy school. My fear about getting accepted is my lack of experience. Every pharmacy that I have been to has told me that I can't shadow or volunteer because of HIPPA. Therefore, I was wondering if it would be worth it to take a pharm tech class over the summer at a vo-tech (2 month program). I doubt I would be able to get a job as a tech because I would only be able to work part-time, but the class summary explains that there are 16 shadowing opportunities as part of the class. Is it worth it to take the class just for those shadowing chances and the fact I could put on my app that I am a certified pharm tech? or would I be better off using my time to study for the pcat? BTW, I have worked at a pediatrician's office for the past 4 years so I have experience working in the health field. Also, I'm not concerned with the price of the class.
thanks for the help!
