Just like in undergrad there are easy schools where you can coast through and hard ones that make your hair fall out.........are there any pharmacy schools out there known to be easy? or at least relatively easier?
 
Pharmacy school isn't easy and you'd be hardpressed to find someone who says their school is easy. It's PROFESSIONAL school and it's a slap in the face to someone who goes to one of the "easy" schools to say so. It's like anything, some people will find it easier than others, but as a design they are not made to be easy. You will be responsible for people's lives and therefore it is important that it not be easy or something that you can just coast through. We've lost a few students because they had the mentality that it didn't matter what they learned or how well they did because they'd "just be doing retail anyways."

im a pharm tech. believe me u dont need everything they teach u. if a place is easier and i can still perform my job with excellence in the pharmacy then why make life harder on myself. but doesnt seem like anyone has an answer anyway.
