Hello
I am new to this forum and I apologize if I make any mistake regarding the rules and regulations of this forum. I also apologize for any grammatical mistakes that may happen in my query as english is not my first language. I happen to stumble on this forum as I was curious about the difficulty level of the pharmacy school. I am currently in grade 12 thinking about going in this field. My family (mostly my brother) is telling me to not pursue the field simply because of the workload of it. So I was curious as to whether his statement should really put a stop to my urge for pursuing pharmacy. I have, however, applied to the Pre-pharmacy program that lengthens about 2 years. My brother is convincing me to cancel the application and I am succumbing to it as I have no idea if I am going to be able to do good in pharmacy school. My grades are all As so far in every academic subject. Another MAJOR obstacle for me is the commute to the pharmacy school. The university that has the pharmacy program in my area is 2 hours away from my home if I take a bus. So, my brother is certain that I will drop out of the pharmacy school because of this problem in addition to the workload of the program. So my question is: Will I have a fighting chance in completing pharmacy school despite the difficulty of commute?
P.S: I can't live inside the university due to financial reason.
I will be truly thankful if anyone choses to respond to my query.
