"Pharmacy school is a test of endurance"

During p-chem lab, one of my classmates noted, " Pharmacy school is a test of endurance". With 4 midterms in a span of less than 2 weeks -on top of other extracurricular obligations- I agree. These 4 midterms were not just simple sujects, in fact kinetics, histology, organic chemistry were not breezy subjects as an undergrad either. And you'd think having seen, studied and to have done relatively well in these classes, that seeing the content again would be a review, but man, how much you can forget in a span of 3 years. To top it off clinical practice (drug dosages, patient assessments, adherence,etc) adds even more useful material to stuff in your brain. With all this wealth of knowledge, pharmacists better be getting out behind the pill counter and get straight to the front counter.
