Question about Pharmacy School Accelerated

[fererras]

Hey I have a question,

I currently work for a pharmaceutical company but want to pursue my pharmd as a career move. I have a 4 year marketing degree and a 2 year math and science both from different institutions. I have worked for this top pharmaceutical company for 7-8 months and decided pharma sales is not what I want to do. I am highly considering going to MCPHS and trying to get into their accelerated program and am just wondering how the school is and if I have a chance to get in. I have a 3.7 GPA for each of my degrees and was super involved in college and have done a ton of community service over the years. I have some real world pharmaceutical experience as well. I was wondering if anyone could lend me their thoughts especially those that have attended or currently attend MCPHS.

Thank You

What's MCPHS? Most states in the US are requiring a 5yr degree in Pharmacy from what I've heard.

MCPHS means Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences

A guy I know is a technical manager at Perth's Curtin University - School of Pharmacy. Their graduates are highly sought after, and command good salaries. Working conditions are very good down here.....Not knocking MA but it is a big planet...
