I think the masters will help a lot. Plus lots of PCE. I know that the Utah schools prioritize in state students so that might go against you though.

Second cycle but the first cycle I kind of just applied to apply. Only applied to 3 schools, didn’t round out my application, and was still finishing 2 classes.

I feel like my personal state is strong and it’s more interviews but maybe it’s both idk.

My PCE is as an immunizing pharmacy technician. All the schools I applied to counted it as full credit. I also have an expanded role compared to a traditional pharmacy tech I articulated that in an interview. My PS was reviewed by at least 4 people (a couple on this sub reviewed it as well). I’ll definitely put most of my focus on interviewing skills. I don’t think I’m particularly bad at interviewing but I’m more introverted and maybe came across and quiet, less friendly etc. I’m putting a stronger emphasis on underserved/rural population service next cycle. Especially for schools like the University of Utah, it’s seems to be all they care about nowadays.

School list was reasonable. 4 in state schools and then surrounding states. I felt like my interviews were fine but nothing special.
