5-10%
first year was the biggest drop out wave, there were like 10 people who never came back after 1st semester. most went to medical schools. a few went to dental schools, and two guys quit and started working in pharma startups, and one switched to phd.
second year i started skipping all lectures so i can't really tell. i heard 1-2 person failed courses so they had to delay graduation, and a few had to delay a year due to health problems.
third year i think there were a few more delays due to course failures.
fourth year i have no clue. i would expect vast majority pass their rotations and graduate
overall i would say maybe like >75%ish is expected to graduate on time next year with me.

About 5% left during P1 year because they decided they didn't want to do pharmacy.
Then about 3-4% failed a class and got held back, we gained people from upper classes though so worked out about the same by graduation.
I feel bad because our program was pretty rigorous, and those people that got held back or failed out probably wouldn't have had these problems at a easier school, yet once you graduate no one really cares which school you went to...

You place too much values on degrees
well, one had a biochem bachelor degree with coop experience from a top 30 school, the other one had extensive research experience, so they both got hired.
Yeah was stupid. I admit, never too late to change. Still making money here 🙂. Degrees won't matter to me after. Point is they don't care about degree
It would be super ironic when they accumulate enough experience and switch to management positions and easily out-earn those who decided to stay and do their PGY-1, PGY-2, PGY-3, or their startups can get bought out and they make a ton of $$$ to retire early. who knows?
Also because of the new age changing. You will find the old ways don't work anymore. I embrace the new age. What I'm trying to say is you can get into whatever field you want. I'm encouraging not attacking 🙂. I hope you find out what I mean by then 🙂
if the old way still works, why do they keep complaining hours get cut and no jobs? isn't a doctor of pharmacy degree supposed to guarantee a good life? 😉
I actually have no debt. Making a lot, backups are all ready. I don't care about titles or degrees. I told you before

Cause employers who value skills don't give a crap about academia. See silicon valley, you don't even need a degree if you can code.
If you get the cfa to level 3 you don't need a finance degree lol. Banks look for you

True, but most people aren't capable of that, which is why it's a rare skill.
One of the guys here pass CFA level 1, even at level 1 it is your finance degree. Thats why I preach self studying over these colleges that charge a arm and a leg.
For my school, it was dropping yearly. They lowered their standards for accepting people into the school so much that the year 2 years under my class started with a class size of 60? and dropped to around half that by P3 year.
