Make a long story short...I graduated w/ a BA in Forensic Psychology. Went to law school for a little while and hated the law and anything associated w/ it. I'm worked in a pharmacy for about a year and enjoyed it. I now work at Memorial Sloan and am seriously considering in going for a pharmacy degree. Do you have any advice or info that would help me? I know I have to take my PCAT'S and some basic science courses, but would having a B.A. already hurt my chances. Thanks for your help.

Re: Anyone here a pharmacist?
Hey Rina - I'm not a pharmacist but my step-father is clinical faculty in the pharmacy department at St. John's so I could ask him a few questions if you'd like me too.
Good luck with your decision - I know that at Stony Brook University (where Step-dad is an assistant director) they are desprate for pharmacists, so I'm sure you could get a job fairly easily.

Oh wow...that would be so nice of you Deb. I would so appreciate it. I can't being to tell you how much it means. I'm going to look into Stony Brook also. Where I work right now, the pharm. dept is located right below me and I'm hoping to get transferred down to the Pharm which would be so great.

No problem I usually talk to my mom on Sunday's, so hopefully my step-dad will be around so i can ask him a few questions then. I'll probably get back to you some time tonight!

He said that it shouldn't be a problem to get in with a BA - and to look into LIU and St. John's if you want to stay on the Island.
Good luck to you!
