I am currently a PY1 getting ready to go into my 4th week of classes. So far I have disliked every single on of my classes. I cant find anything that I like about Pharmacy School. I only have 2 months previous experience working in a pharmacy and am now seriously believing that I have made a mistake. I really seriously can not find anything at this point that I think I would like doing in pharmacy and get sick to my stomach just thinking about returning to school on Monday. I have talked it over with friends(both in pharmacy school and not in pharmacy school) and with family. My family all thinks I am just homesick and missing my boyfriend and I can't make them believe that I really don't like school in general. My dad and boyfriend are both pushing me hard to stay in school and stick it out. I want to quit and applying to nursing school. Any advice on what I should do?? Please help this is a huge decision and I don't want to make the wrong one. 🙁

This proves why the US PHARMACY ADMISSION COMMITTEE are ALL screw up in accepting the students...look at the FACTS of each school

1. you are a female
2. you are probably white
3. you don't have much pharmacy experience
4. you probably kiss up to all your undergrad professor a high GPA
5. you are rich, with plenty of money, your tuition is probably all pay off
6. what more can i say...your statement says it all

1) A greater proportion of females are admitted that are in the general population. But, this is in line with the application ratio.
2) Population wise, whites are not over or underrepresented in pharmacy admissions or applications.
3) Experience is favored in applicants, because experienced applicants tend to be more convincing when showing their enthusiasm. They have been there and have a better basis for evaluating their likes/dislikes than someone who has never set foot in a pharmacy. No one is precluded from getting experience. You can always volunteer.
4) You don't get good grades by kissing up.
5) Most pharmacy students live off of student loans. Adcoms don't care if money comes from loans, scholarships, or some pre-existing source.
6) 😕

I don't quite see the reason for the rant about race, gender, experience, gpa, and money, nor what it has to do with the OP.
