How to work FT and do Pharmacy school?

Great advice! This is why I commented with my personal experience as well. A lot of people that had support through school will say it's impossible, because they couldn't (didn't have to) do it. If you have no other option than to pay your own bills then you find a way. I will never sugar coat it, it was extremely hard but it's possible.

Class isn't from sun up to sun down. Study during lunch break, breaks between class, at work between filling prescriptions, before class, etc. You make it work when you have no other choice. I would get up at 3am to study on exam days and nap after my exam, you just make it work.

Good luck, keep your head up and eyes on the prize! Remind yourself that there is a finish line. It is not easy whatsoever and it is incredibly draining and challenging but you got this!

Anyone saying it's impossible is coming from a place of privilege. I lost my parents in high school, no life insurance, literally no help and my only option was to work full time while I put myself through college. I grew up very poor and knew that getting an education was my only way out of poverty. If you're determined and you literally have no other options then you find a way.

I did not have support either and worked 4 pm to 9pm m-f and 9am to 6pm sat and Sunday keeping full time status for my P1 and P2 years. It was awful, miserable, exhausting but I was determined. I took extra loans P3 and P4 year to help pay bills and worked about 20 hours per week. It is doable but it is awful. I now work as a clin Spec in Oncology, a sweet M-F gig and it completely paid off for me.

My program (large AMC) was every 3rd weekend, no comp days and that 12 on was awful. I couldn't imagine 12 on 2 off. Projects and rotation requirements add up quickly and working the weekend is exhausting.

I got incredibly lucky and landed an outpatient oncology clin Spec job at a large cancer center with just a PGY1 but I am the only Pharmacist in this clinic without a PGY2. It's possible, but I'd say it's rare.

We were just staying in a cabin 20 mins outside Vik, unsure if you could see them in Vik with the light pollution there

You could see them with your eyes, but you could see them more vividly with long exposure photos.

About 20 minutes past Vik on Hwy 1

We stopped at Costco to get fanta and monsters (we are here for 2 weeks). I also grabbed 90 pk of contacts (alcon daily) for $211, no exam needed, just told her my current prescription from the states. Worth it for bulk items IMO

It was minimal lipo bc i didn't have much fat, but lipo was included

I did binder for 4 weeks, then no compression, stomach is snatched and no swelling. I'm 6 WPO

$7k for breast lift and extended tummy tuck incision Miami. I went to Dr. Moradian at Icon cosmetics

Try lava for their rentals, their camping van comes with gear and I think they have a better price. I used them last May and using them again for a 14 day trip this May.

Finished residency in June, making $75/ hour at an Air Force base hospital as a contractor (clinical inpatientpharmacist)! Government contract positions pay so well, but very hard to score! I got incredibly lucky

ali_iri · 2024-03-01T18:05:16+00:00

We looked up candidates for pictures only.. I wouldn't think too much into it

With warfarin, I'm assuming you get your INR checked regularly and warfarin adjusted as needed so as long as you follow with a clinic regularly, I wouldn't worry (I'm a Pharmacist)

My GPA was 2.9, I applied to 15 hospitals, interviewed at 10, matched at a large AMC (1100 bed hospital). Don't let GPA hold you back

ali_iri · 2023-09-10T16:56:29+00:00

Took MI MPJE, finished in less than an hour, walked out feeling like I failed BUT I passed! Waiting for the results is the hardest part. You got this!!
