.... In all my four years of pharmacy, my school never once held a panel of "how to start your own independent pharmacy" or "how to be an effective community pharmacist." They never mentioned about how much further in debt you'll be if you choose to do a residency.
Funny, we just had a individual come in and talk to the class about opening/operating an independent pharmacy, I believe he owns a couple of pharmacies..and 2 weeks ago we had 3 clinical pharmacist give their own talk..i guess it's school specific.
For sure. I have only heard one professor even mention residency. We have a panel of pharmacist come and talk to us in first year, and the panel included residents, but it wasn't "stacked". If anything I wouldn't mind the school giving us more info about residencies - from where I sit I don't even see the point. Perhaps in the third year we will get more info - I have no idea.
