I'm graduating in spring 2018 and would like to apply to pharmacy school this fall. I have an okay GPA (around 3.4-3.5 overall and science) and I took the PCAT earlier this month and got a 99, but I don't really have any verifiable pharmacy or healthcare experience at all. I did spend about 2 years working as a cashier in a small pharmacy several years ago and loved it, but the pharmacist that I worked with has since passed away so obviously I can't mention that job in applications.
I am wondering if anyone has any ideas of what could possibly improve my application over the next couple months. I think there is at least one hospital in my area where I can try to shadow a pharmacist for a day or two but other than that I'm not sure what to do. Should I just try to volunteer at a hospital pharmacy or look for a tech job? I'm really not sure what would be best since it's so close to application deadlines. Any ideas would be helpful!
