We have applied, and (hopefully) expect acceptance at these schools. We would most appreciate input from current students at these schools. We loved the people and facilities at South University, however, we have read some negative posts about that school. Any input is much appreciated.

Have you both interviewed at each school already?

If you are a Florida resident, I think it's a no-brainer. UF is cheaper than the others I believe, and is considered a "better" school. But I go to UF(undergrad) now and will go to UF CoP next year so I am biased.

We go to UF undergrad now. One of us interviewed at USC, and was accepted. Both of us interviewed at South, and both were accepted. We will be interviewing at UF, Mercer and Nova in the next three weeks. What we liked about South was the school size, the staff, and the fact that it is a three year program. We like UF, however, the pharmacy school is much larger than other schools, and it is a four year program. We know that it is a "better" school than the others. Thanks for your input, and for those of you that may hereafter provide input.

I feel like I met one of you twins at an orientation for volunteering at shands hospital pharmacies last summer. Good luck to both of you on your interviews. Hopefully we will be UF classmates next year

If you get into Mercer or UF I'd pick between those two for sure, but that's just me.

I agree with the above post. Mercer or UF, but since you live in FL.. UF is half the price. And I would not even apply to USC... almost $40,000 a year tuition???? Since you have an interview at UF, you are basically in. It's a better education for a good value.

Don't worry about the class size of UF so much, they have 4 campuses.

So are you two planning on going to the same pharmacy school together, or different ones?

One of us is still awaiting an interview at UF, as her first PCAT was 51, and the second was 85. GPA is 3.8 at UF. We would like to attend the same school if possible. We really appreciate all of your input. We both volunteer at Shands, so RXforSuccess, we probably both met you at the orientation as we both were there.

Well after they see the 2nd pcat, you both will surely be invited. I only remember talking to one twin. I gave a ride afterwards?.. might be two others tho. Anyways.. I wish you both well.
