Default Does it matter where you study pharmacy?

Hey people with alot of degrees I know that perhaps the reputation of the university counts towards future prospects. I was wondering whether this was the case in pharmacy?

Hmmmm, I'm not sure what you mean, for example If i were to study pharmacy at LSOP as opposed to say erm De Montford. Would employers find LSOP more applicable on the CV?

You have the choice so you might as well go to the one with the best reputation, rather thn a former polytechnic. Look up ratings on the net. Nottingham used to be the highest rated followed by Manchester Bath and Cardiff. Not sure which is highest at the minute. base your choice on this rather than which is nearest to home, or where your friends are going.

Don't go somewhere just because your friends are going there, inevitably you and they will make new friends and you will drift apart. See your old ones in vacation.

It's close to Newcastle so probably good for networking with NPC peeps.

Only advice I'd give on choice is to avoid places not yet accredited.
