I'm having a bit of a crisis.
Should I go to a private pharmacy school this year, which has been around for about 20 years, or should I try to get into a well ranked state school next year? I would be paying the similar tuition, since the state school would be out of state for me.
I interviewed at some nice state schools, but I was rejected from them. I have been accepted into some private schools.
I could work and live with my parents, so I'd only be losing about $40,000 in opportunity costs. I definitely think I could improve my PharmCAS application too.
I think I would like to do a residency, and this thread over in the residency forum is not very encouraging:

Maybe it won't be so bad in the future, and this is just a symptom of the bad economy, but what would you guys do?
