Pharmacy Career Salaries

Cindy Said:

Career in Pharmacy (pharmacist...NOT technician!)...Is it worth it? Fun? School requirements? ?

We Answered:

I was in the pharmacy field but i left it because it wasn't for me..

1. you make more money doing retail then you do in clinic. Reason why its because you work hourly, When i was fresh out of school. I made over a 100k, which i though was great but i had to work very long hours. It wasn't till later that i found out that a coworker who is also a pharmacist who had over ten years was only making 7 thousand more then. so its kinda sucks that your pretty much stuck around the same pay.
hopes this helps let me know if there's anything i can help you with
2. talk with your guidance counselor I major in liberal arts before entering in pharmacy school.

3. you do have to take PCAT its test kinda like the SAT. that you should submit to the school of your choice.

4. Personally i didn't find pharmacy school competitive. so I couldn't help you there. I suggest that you do research of the school that you want to attend.
5. It is very easy to find a job. in fact before your even done with school you will have people looking to hire.
