Well computer that can hold charge, and that is fast is a MUST. Everything is done on the computer for example some in class quizzes you only have 3 minutes for. No one is going to wait for you to load your computer, or update it in class or install/reinstall anything. Everyone is ready to go and take the quiz once announced. I would also recommend getting a planner for the first year (at least). There will be different locations/rooms/times/assignments thrown at you (especially in the first week of school), so you need to keep track. I think one of the biggest differences between undergrad and pharmacy school is you are not going to be babysat. If you don't turn in an assignment- no one will hunt you down for it, you just get a 0. Books in most part should not be bought. Usually books will be available online or a teacher might specify exactly the one you need (changes from year to year). Just normal school supplies, nothing fancy..a binder maybe, pens/pencils, paper, whatever you need to take notes. I would also recommend investing in a printer. Some papers must be turned in and you don't want to be in the library at 6 am trying to print something etc. Professional dress code is a must some day so invest in some professional attire including shoes. I think the rest will come along the road like scrubs for P2 year etc.
