Marshall University (WV) Fall 2017

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Just some honest advice you might want to check their most resent NAPLEX pass rate if you end up with multiple offers.
 
I was part of their first interview cycle and got accepted. They have a high NAPLEX pass rate and low tuition. The people there were very friendly and it seems like a good community to live in.

Thanks for the response. Are you planning to attend the school?
 
It's between Marshall and WVU
where did you read that marshall has a high NAPLEX pass rate? I just checked online and it says its around 60% (really low..) for 2016. They have no prior records before that.

startclass.com and also Marshall's website. Are you sure you read the right thing? That NAPLEX pass rate is abysmal and I don't think any pharmacy school has that low of a number

check this out. This is from the people that give the exam. They give an annual pass rate every year

Startclass.com is self submitted pass rates. I wouldn't trust it

That's a good point, I didn't read that far down on the Marshall website. Makes me think how many schools report overall rate and how many report first time pass rate. Regardless, I got a good impression from the school and I'm confident it's a great place to flourish as a pharmacy student. That is a pretty low initial pass rate though, but I don't know how significant that is compared to other schools
