very informative video, am currently doing undergraduate program in pharmacy (B.pharm) in Asia. I want to pursue pharm D in US, can you explain the possibilities and process.
I'm so happy I came across your channel! I'm in my last year of high school and just enrolled in a two-year pharmacy technician program at my local community college, which starts this year. I’ve been exploring different specializations within the pharmacy tech field and recently watched some videos about chemotherapy/oncology on TH-cam. That’s how I found your channel. Your "Day in the Life" and work vlogs have really helped me envision what I want my future to look like. I'm even considering transitioning to a pharmacist later on if I enjoy where I go with pharmacy tech. I already know that I want to work as a hospital inpatient pharmacy technician once I gain enough experience. I realized I wanted to be in this field because I love watching survival shows like "The Walking Dead." It might sound funny, but I always get anxious knowing there’s no one in the show who can help with medical needs, and that inspired me to figure out what I want to do. Plus, I love helping people and want to learn more about how medicine works with our bodies. I also wanted to say, please keep posting! Your videos give me so much hope and excitement for my future! 🩷🩷
Aww thank you so much!! That makes me so happy to hear 🥹 I love pharmacy technicians! They play such a vital role in healthcare and the pharmacy department. I’m excited for you and your future career!
i'm a sophomore majoring in biochem and i'm really not loving organic chemistry at the moment... do you think this should be a reason to reconsider my plans to go to pharmacy school, or should i stick with it?
Organic chem is mainly just a requirement for undergrad, but you won’t really see it in clinical pharmacist as a pharmacist. Most people I know in pharmacy school hated organic chemistry so I wouldn’t rely too much on that! you will probably only need it for one or two classes in pharmacy school
Hey @ dr sarah Plz make more videos about pharmcy books test books and a study materials that a pharmcaist should cover .by the way i am a final year student of Pharm d
Hi Sarah!! So my application has finally gotten verified by PharmCAS last Friday for University of Florida 🥳🥳🥳 Anyway, I’ve been thinking about working as a Pharmacy Intern while at the same time studying my PharmD program to avoid forking out loans from the federal student aid to avoid being in debt. That’s for both paying my annual tuition to stay in UF until I graduate, and stay close by from the main campus in Gainesville. Can you give me an advice if my idea on working as a Pharmacy Intern while studying is a good idea or bad idea?
It’s a great idea! It sounds stressful, but it’ll be worth it. A lot of my pharmacy classmates, me included, worked as interns during pharmacy school! It’s a good way to get work experience and also to keep your network. Many internships hire you on as pharmacists after graduation if a position opens ☺️
tysm for this super helpful video, i do have one question tho. a huge con for pharmacy ive heard is the competitiveness, what do u have to say abt that?
Yes, I would say it is rather saturated right now so it can be competitive in terms of job search unfortunately :( however I do hear that class sizes are starting to decrease so I predict that in several years it will calm down, but it is hard to say!
It can vary quite a lot depending what field and location! For the US, national average is ~120-130k, but can go up to ~170-200k for clinical pharmacists
Thank you so much for such a helpful video! I’m currently on my pre-pharmacy journey and can’t wait for what’s ahead!
Awww so excited for you!! Wishing you the best of luck 🥹

Forgot from my previous comment: I’ve been also thinking about obtaining as much scholarships as I can to afford yearly tuition
Yes, I love it!! Definitely take advantage of scholarships
How much does a pharmacist make I search up it says £58000 a year
It can vary quite a lot depending what field and location! For the US, national average is ~120-130k, but can go up to ~170-200k for clinical pharmacists
@@SarahPharmD ok thx btw does a pharmacist basically make the medicine
