Hello Everybody,
how hard is it to get accepted to PharmD program at any pharmacy school. I need to volunteer at a pharmacy or shadow a pharmacist. How do I do this?
I have called few pharmacy and they tell me we don't have an opportunity for volunteering. They recommended to get a pharmacy technician license to be able to work at their pharmacy.
I planing on taking the PCAT this summer and move forward applying. Any suggestion or advice are appreciated.

Thanks!

Get a pharm tech license. Work in a pharmacy.

Yes, it helps to get in, but more importantly make sure you can see yourself doing it (especially in retail) for the rest of your career.
