I'm a junior in high school and I plan on pursuing a career in pharmacy. I am also a fan of bussiness and heard about a dual degree of Pharmd + MBA. Can anyone mention any good schools for this degree and any info on the degree itself?

Thanks in advance

I'm not too sure which school has a good PharmD/MBA, but I'll tell you as much as I know. Most of the schools that offer the PharmD/MBA is pretty much letting you take the two programs concurrently. Some of the elective classes you'll take will apply to both PharmD and MBA. All it does is let you finish the two degrees in 5 years instead of 4+2. I used to be interested in it, but after looking, schools that i was interested in going for PharmD did not have a very good MBA programs. Lastly, you have to apply to PharmD and MBA and be admitted to both if you want to do a dual degree.
Good luck
