Few questions i had, I searched and no luck...these are prob dumb questions but oh well lol

1. How many days a year do you go to pharmacy school? Is a semester about the same amount in class as undergrad? Do you get the same holidays, etc.?

2. For getting accepted in to pharm school...Do they only interview/accept students for the fall semester? Or do they interview students twice a year (Spring and Fall)? I ask because it looks like I will finish my prerequisites after taking fall semester classes instead of Spring like most ppl.

3. Do you get paid for your last semester in school or is that only for the internship after graduation?

Sorry if my English is sort of bad, ill probably ask more questions if I think of them
 
1. At my pharmacy school, our semesters started and ended on the same days as undergrads, and we had the same days off for winter, spring, and summer breaks.

2. Most schools only accept people for fall semester. If you wind up finishing your pre-reqs in Spring, that gives you more time to work/goof off.

3. You pay tuition during your last year, just like everyone else. Sorry.
