Hiya Temi…..cute name
I’m a junior pharmacist (graduated in 2006) and I can tell you pharmacy is about ‘what you put in is what you get out’…
Pharmacy is a hard course, but nothings easy in life…everyone has to work hard to achieve something. The first two years are ok, not too much course work and some free time to study. The 3rd and 4th years get harder, because you start the ‘professional practice’ units, OSCE’s and the MPharm project. It will vary between different Uni’s.
I can tell you, when I was at school, I was never studious. I jus wanted to have fun all the time. Parents weren’t too happy.
When I started college, Uni…I changed and everything fell into place. Each day I would set a side sum time to read up my notes etc. I never failed any exams.
You just have to be really organised, read up on your notes each day or within the week, go out once in a while, have a good relationship with your teachers, and generally enjoy studying!
I totally agree with caz …you have to be passionate about doing well and achieving.
Anyone can do it…so can you….
