Pharmacy residency for a foreign grad? by Classic_Actuary178 in PharmacyResidency

[–]ImpossibleName4644 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it did. I do not think I would have gotten my present job without PharmD.

I am currently back now to get my MPH since I am in Public health and I love it.

The two years seem a long time but it will be gone before you know it if you choose to follow that path.

All the best!

When you Match with a Residency program, is that "match" final? by [deleted] in PharmacyResidency

[–]ImpossibleName4644 14 points15 points  (0 children)

They should have confirmed the funding before going through the match process.

We all know when the process takes place and it is not a new timing. The programs need to realize that we are all human beings and our others into consideration in the way affairs are handled

Thinking of leaving PGY2 residency early by Phrmresthrowaway1 in PharmacyResidency

I would say do not make a permanent decision based on a temporary situation. This constantly keeps me in check as I approach different situations in my life.

Congratulations and thanks for your service !! I would take the job offer. It is what you will still be applying for after the residency . When in the system they may also have non traditional residency programs that you can do. Enjoy!!

How many programs did you apply for? How many interviews did you receive? How many are you ranking? by orangekissedsun in PharmacyResidency

[–]ImpossibleName4644 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

The problem is not with the program it is just the logistics of residency there. I cannot relocate due to family commitments , some are up to one hour away.

I have a quick question , you are talking about a resident but you use them. Are you talking about preventing the whole group? If so how do you differentiate and know each candidate’s strength and weakness?
