Default Re: how hard is pharmacy is it doable at all

Thanks a lot for the info on OSCE's everyone.

They seem quite daunting, I would have a nervous breakdown.

I hope the written exams are more important than the OSCE's as I cant see myself performing very well in them.

Can anyone at Kings/Medway tell me what proportion of your total marks, do OSCE's count for?

Do the examiners tend to be arrogant bigwigs like hospital consultants?
Sorry to ask in such a way, but I'm considering a career in Pharmacy,
and I want to ensure that its doesn't bare much resemblance to Medicine MBBS, where the finals OSCE's are like 24 x 5 minute stations times 2, and they count for 50% of marks and u gotta perform in front of arrogant consultants!!! Not to forget the million OSCES across yrs 1-5. I dont want to be tested till I drop.
No thanks - I dont want to venture into a similar career or university course!!

Please tell me MPharm is different and OSCE's do not constitute as much?!!!!!!!


Thanks everyone
