I'm a second year student at UC Davis. I want to graduate next year after summer school. My original plan was to graduate early and work/gain experience in a pharmacy.
But now I'm doubting that idea because I feel like it's not worth it. Because I'm working hard to graduate early, yet after graduating, I would just be at home, working (hopefully) in a pharmacy (hopefully as a TECH).
My main incentive for graduating early was so that I could save some time, save some money and maybe make some money on the side. But it seems like it is such a waste to graduate early and still go to pharmacy school at the same time as I would have if I graduated in 4 years.
Also, going to pharmacy school directly after graduating is not an option because it would mean I would have to apply this summer, and I'm just not ready. I don't feel like I would get in based on my current GPA, experience (I JUST started pharmacy clerk-ing) and letters (I can't even get one from a professor..)
Would taking the year off and gaining experience even heighten my chances of getting into pharmacy school?
What should I do?
THANK YOU!
