Hi guys,
I am from India and currently I am doing my PhD directly after my bachelors. After seeing the pharm d students, I am intrested in doing Pharm d. I wonder if I need to take up the pre reqs for applying Universities or will my b pharm degree from india will suffice.
Can anyone advice like which universities give admissions to Indternational students. I know about NOVA, WESTERN and Southern nevada universities. But the competetion is so high for them. So I have decided for 4 Year pharm d. Can someone advice a few universities which i can apply after PCAT.

No I will be attending Touro in the Fall. It was my first choice...close to home.:)
 
:wow:Wow, there are def. more Indians on here than I expected. I'm one too! :D. I'm in Kansas.

With Indian parents normally wanting thier kids to become doctors, dentists, lawyers and engineers ( I think those are the most common) did any of you find it hard to break away from the stereotype and go into pharmacy?

lol. u chose pharmacy b/c ur parents told u to?.............alright so did i. but when i thought about and read more about it, i liked it too. besides what i would really like to do is kinda impractical for now (how about travel the world with just a backpack and a camera?). i think i'll save it for after retirement. hows that for thinking ahead?
 
besides pharmacy is the new medicine/engineering/law for mallus!
 
I am soo happy that I started this thread... we all desis can come together and help each other out.. This is awesome :)

Yeah I went into pharmacy cuz my dad told me to, and it was the best damn decision I ever made... I'm really glad I'm doing pharmacy... So u wanna travel the world with just a backpack and a camera? Forget pharmacy, you should do that... you can start ur own reality show..."Indian girl disrespects parents' wishes and travels the world"... It will be a big hit in India and u can make millions!

Hi,
Have u applied to those schools? Nova, Western, Usn? I also have a bachelor's degree in pharmacy and doing master's in chemistry. I will finish in july 2008. For nova u dont need to do any pre-requisites but for usn and western u need to do undergrad prerequisites like english composition and interpersonal communication. I have recently got a call from usn and i had been accepted into that school. Can anyone tell me about nova like how difficult it is to get into it?

anybody have any good excuses if/when they tell u that? i should start stocking up.
 
I'm an Indian as well, as my forum name indicates. My last name is also Patel like many of you are. I'm a high school student currently, and I'll be going to a university next year. Either University of Georgia or Georgia State University. Then after doing my pre-reqs, I plan on going to pharmacy school wherever someone will take me. I haven't thought about it that far just yet.

Does the accreditation status of Touro makes any one nervous? I sent my deposit for crazy 2 grand already but still little undecided.
