So basically hopefully when i pass 3rd and 4th year i'll be heading into pre reg. All the regular pharmacies (Lloyds, Boots, Morrisons etc..) have their pre reg forms opened up for the 2012/2013 year.

I just wanted to know what experiences people have had with independent and the regular chain pharmacies. I hear stories that you have to work harder in independent with less support as opposed to, say Llloyds, who have certain training methods.

If you went to an independent then did your tutor help you out?

I'd prefer working for a known pharmacy but if i have to work for an independent then i just need some reassurance.

Thanks!
