If you think its bad now, imagine how it'll be in 4 more years after another 60,000 people have been dropped into the job "market". Heed their warning.
Listen to yourself. If you have doubts now, it's not about saturation, it's about that you have doubt tin yourself whether you can handle the school or not.
Being proactive about a situation and asking those who don't have their heads in the sand is translated to doubting if they can handle school? Quite a stretch.

I wasn't offended, cause I am not the one who asked the advice. I tried to tell him to listen to his heart and follow his dreams
To me doesn't matter what you say. All talking about market saturation don't bother me for whatever reasons. For me, 4 years ago I decided, and never changed my mind. I have seen people here constantly changing their mind from MCAT to dat to pcat to PA school. They have to ask themselves what they really want.
First off, the job market is getting worse. Take a look at the pharmacy forums here and reddit and notice how many people are asking if driving an hour out of town for a job is normal. Second, I feel bad for anyone at your future school that is mandated to work with you for a group project, Im sure theyll have a tough time expressing any opinion that isn't yours. Keep acting this way and you will have zero luck in your future job search.
I have my own sources. I don't know any people from SDN in reality, so all advices online are not 100 % true.
Lol. You are nothing better than me! You are rude. YOU went against MY opinion, and a look how you are ready to scream. And I don't know who you are. I don't know what your grades, what is your career choice, whether you are at school or finished and took Naplex, and now look for a job.
I wish you all the best in your future!
Talk about your Personal experience please....
Ohh it is ok, I don't want you to worry about that and you can take that stress off your shoulders. Let me handle it lol
You have some story from your personal experiences? It would be nice to introduce yourself lol. For example, I am a future student who has pink glasses and sweet dreams about future. Try to break my dreams from some real stories
Blind decision is to listen to advices and negativity online. That's blind! Where the prove that you are even a girl? Not to mention about smart brain lolThere is plenty on this thread and more their words ate literally yelling at you. You are doing a blind decision ignoring doctors and students. Take this for in advance to back and apply for optometry school or something that will get you a spot. I'm girl with a smart brain warning you about your future! So try again
Wish you all the best! I look at things differently due to the age. So I like to encourage to take classes seriously, learn time management skills.. etc. But I am not the one who breaks the dream... best answer to anything is time and your own mistakes.. whether these mistakes are expensive or cheap.
Human, especially young and inexperienced, is wired to learn their lesson the hard way. That's how they can remember it.
It's the new days which you can get admission offers left and right from pharmacy schools simply by demonstrating that you are eligible to take out $200k+ in student loans.
Becoming a pharmacist was never easy. 10 years ago it was very competitive to get into pharmacy school but once you got in and graduated, you were pretty much guaranteed a job. Now you are pretty much guaranteed a spot in pharmacy school but it is very difficult to find a job. In the old days, people who couldn't get into pharmacy school would move on. When you've become licensed and can't scrape enough hours to pay your $200k+ in student loans off, what are you going to do? What if you have to move across the country for the only part time or per diem job that's available but don't have the money to even pay moving expenses as your interest accrues at $10-15k/year?
I know that you dont know me, but calling me young makes me forget my age lol
You did not even start the school or being accepted yet... so yeah.. no offense.. but you didn't say anything smart yet lol
Missy!! If you are not a pharmacist student or pre-pharm, why do you care? With the same passion like me here you are getting mad when people talk about optometry. So please..
The forum says what schools don't tell you. If people think it's poison and fear, they're just be quiet, avoid it and go somewhere else to look for courage.
Ok! You finally persuaded me
