So, I read on the UBC Pharm Website that the program requires you to do clinical rotations for 20 weeks. 12 weeks outside of the greater vancouver area and 8 weeks that are inside the greater vancouver area. I am just going into my first year of pharmacy at UBC and only my second year of university, so was overwhelmed with the number of courses i still have to take in higher years. I'm just wondering if there is a specific time when students are required to finish these rotations. Are the ones that can be in the greater-vancouver full-time, or part-time, so you can still go to school? Or do most students complete these in the summers and if so, do they do this during the summer of their 2nd and 3rd year?
Thanks in advance for any information!

Do any of you guys have practise exams for physiology 301?
I got a Small labcoat and it seems really really big on me now..lol. In years past if you ask can you change sizes or is it too late?
Yup. give me your email
Wow UBC microbio! You are so sweet. My email address is [email protected]
Thank you so much in advance
There's certainly no harm in asking. I have an XS and it is still pretty big, and I had to get the sleeves hemmed.
do you suggest just talking to Margaret UBC Microbi?
As a practicing pharmacist in Vancouver area for 20 years, I have some practical advice for those of you in the program and for those planning to apply to the profession.
There is a dramatic shift in the profession. No longer are you expected to count, lick or pour. The profession is turning to more clinical aspects such as med reviews, giving injections, adaptations on prescriptions. The counting and typing is being taken over by regulated techs.
For the next few years the demand for new grads will be less.
Gov't intervention, changes in legislation will require fewer pharmacists in the near future for the next 10 years. Unfortunately, the university is ramping its enrollment.
For those who may consider what I am saying as inaccurate, I urge you to talk to pharmacists that are currently working and speak to the big chains and see how many job offers they are offering. Anyways not everything is bleak, the profession is very rewarding and you do not have to have a great pcat, as others have mentioned. Your GPA, and your interview skills are the most important aspect along with your extra-curricular activities.
I base this on being an interviewer at UBC and being an SPEP instructor for 3rd and 4th year students.

Hey guys,
I was offered an interview and was just wondering how I can start preparing for it.
Is anyone interested in making a practice group to start preparing for MMI questions. If so, PM me or email me at [email protected].
Yep they came out last week.
P.S. I know who you are ksksks kkkkk. Maybe you can guess who I am judging from my username.
