I'm just starting my pre-pharm pre reqs. I currently have only 2 options of schools. I have always been a great student, but I have a family, I don't have much time for ECs, I plan on trying to fit something in somewhere but I'm trying to take this first semester easy (haven't been in school in 8 years) I'm taking 15 credits this semester. I've been reading through these posts and it just scares me. I can't apply to 10 schools, I may possibly move before I even get to the application process. The people who say just say good bye to my family until I'm done... I can't do that with a 3 year old.
I'm pretty sure staying at home with a child isn't a good thing to put on my application. I know myself and I know with out a doubt I can do the work and get the grades and the scores I need. It's just from what I can tell the schools aren't all about GPAs and scores. Is there anyone else who has gotten in with 0 ECs or a previous tech job. Any advice would be great I have tons of credits I still have to do and I know I'm way off from actually applying I just want to give myself every chance I can to make myself a better candidate without destroying my family.
