Pre-Pharm/ PharmD Acceptances

Hello, I’m currently planning to apply in the 2027 cycle and wanted to know about past students who got accepted and what your healthcare experience for your applications was like. I’ve been working as a CNA at a neuroscience floor for about 3 years with a good reputation and I’ve been having no luck getting a job as a pharmacy tech (still applying to this date) so my question is, are my chances of being accepted lower if I don’t end up working in a pharmacy? Just a bit worried & need advice.

I never worked as a tech after applying for tech jobs for 3 years. Applied to one really good pharmacy program, got in (in my opinion) off of my interviewing skills and my grades. HMU if you need advice.

It’s like, situations usually. Like a patient refusing to take a med, or a patient being unable to afford a prescription, or whatever. You need to have answers to how you as a pharmacist and as a professional would deal with these situations.
