Hello pre-pharmers,
I just want you to know back in 2001 it was actually tough to get into pharmacy school but easy to get a job afterwards, similar to how medical school is today. Unfortunately Pharmacy deans are letting anyone school these days to fill empty seats due to decreased demand (including ex-heroin drug dealers and people with religious studies degrees). So the good news is that you will get accepted to pharmacy school but the hard part is now securing a job as a pharmacist. This is getting much harder, even in rural areas. Please do your homework and ask around where you want to work how fierce the job competition is.
