yeah i get carded all the time.
i just take it as a compliment
People never think I'm 24... which is good since I'll be 29 when I graduate 😀 I worked with a pharmacist last year that looked probably 20 years old and she was 32 and nobody thought she was the pharmacist. They'd always ask to speak to the pharmacist and point to this one male tech who was like 22 or something... She'd get so mad 😡 haha

this past year there were only a handful of transfers admitted .. the students were mostly the "guarantees" (pharm freshmen with at least a 3.0 gpa at the end of the pre-pharm studies). at the orientation, the dean mentioned that for the incoming fall 2005 class, about 3000 applications were considered for 200 seats or so.. mentioned something about 1:10 acceptance ratio..
