Good Morning everyone!
I am at the stage to where I am applying to pharmacy school for 2018 cycle. If I go this route, I am looking at 3 year programs - focusing on South College as my Early Acceptance.
I have worked in the pharmacy for 10 years now and I absolutely love the retail side of it. For every 9 "PITA" patients, you have that 1 patient that makes you love what you do.
I know the market is horrible - but I am staying optimistic on it coming back around. I am not going into pharmacy for the money - yea, it's great, however I enjoy helping make a difference in someone's over all well being.
Now, I am faced with a choice to apply to DO School instead of Pharmacy School. If I go this route, I would be hopeful for ACOM in Dothan, Alabama because it's close to home.
My choice for DO over MD comes from being able to start seeing and working with patients after the first year.
What are your thoughts on this? Would you continue to pursue Pharmacy or check out DO/MD or even PA?
Thanks in advance,
FinallyOnTrack
