Question: I just had a question about the schedule for pharmacy school? Typically, students have to attend class each day, but is it for all day? It's probably not like college where you can choose the times when take classes, correct? How do you view someone who needs to work during pharmacy school, and how many hours / week would you recommend?
Answer: I can only speak to the programs I am familiar with, but I think it is safe to say that each pharmacy school has a fairly specific schedule that you will need to adhere to. You might have a bit of flexibility with labs and electives, but you won't have much freedom to choose different course offerings. For example, Medicinal Chemistry may only offered once to the students enrolled in your program and youwill need to take the course when it is scheduled to progress through your program.
I uually think it is a good idea for pharmacy students to work a few hours per week (8 or so) to gain firsthand, real world experience if you are able to maintain your grades while doing so.
