Just graduated in may with a bs in bio. Planning to apply next fall for pharm school. If I get in somewhere for fall of 2005, I will have two years of "free time" from now until then. So I'm thinking use that time to get a masters not just so I don't "waste" my time but also if I don't get in to any pharm school on the first try I'm sure it will help me to have an advanced degree (right?). So my question is, is this thinking logical? should i pursue a masters since i do have time, and if so, in what? I'm thinking Masters in bio with either a concentration in microbio (I never took microbio as an undergrad, so thought this would help) or bioinformatics (something I am very interested in). What do you all think?
Thx.
