Congratulations on graduating from Pharm School! I'm a college freshman and I started college with the idea that I wanted to be a pharmacist. However, one of my professors scared me away from the career, but after watching this I feel better about my decision!

i just got a call from pharmarcy school...and i'm going to the interview this april..wish me luck

THIS WAS SOSOSOSO HELPFUL!! Thank you. It was incredibly wonderful of you to spend time telling us about this.

I will probably break down in tears when I see that I have been admitted to Pharmacy school! I want it that bad!

I have a degree in Pharmacy and Chemistry it's an amazing career I love it and I work as a CRA !!!

Your video really spoke to me! I appreciate the time you took to inform others on the pharmacy topic! thank you!

Jen, thank you so much! This is what I really needed to hear today and I'm glad I found you here. :) This is truly helpful and I would usually skip though when I watch a video of people talking. But, this. I watched it non-stop from the beginning to the end. Once again, Thank you. !

I'm a fifth year student in Doctor of Pharmacy (5 year) program! final exams are this September. Can't wait to finish. These 5 years were the toughest part of my life, not because of pharmacy and its contents - which btw if you give time isn't that difficult, but because of the living conditions, hardships and health issues i had to go through while i was undergoing all this.

You are such an inspiration! I am so motivated even though I am not related to Pharmacy at all :)

omg!!! wOW...tHANK YOU SO MUCH..I am so happy that I went through this video....Great job girl!! You have a long way to go...

I'm in my 3rd year of pharmacy school and I totally agree to everything you said!!! ☺️. You're such an inspiration and you have totally great makeup taste!!!!!

Awesom Jen! I watch all of your videos and I'm glad you did one about school! I'm not interested in pharmacy but what you talked about applies to so many other professions. I tried to get into KZfaq to share by beauty knowledge but it was just way too hard with school. So kudos to you for finding time to do both!

Great advice. I remember working my butt off to get in! Glad it worked out. Thanks for the video!

Hi, I'm glad I was able to see this video, I want to go for pharmacy tech then probably go for a pharmacist 😁 but thanks for this motivated video 💕💕 CONGRATS TO YOU ON GRADUATING THIS YEAR!! 🎉🎉🎊🎊🎊🎉🎉🎉 I know your family is so proud of you! ❤️

this was so so so helpful! I'm going to my 3rd year of undergrad and I really needed to hear some advice from someone in Pharmacy school themselves. Thank you so much for this post! :) It also inspired me to keep trying even if I do fail my PCAT or getting admitted into the school.

Thank you for that detailed video on pharmacy and for the encouraging words

Thank you for all the info really appreciated because both my daughters are in the medical fields at university one is in medical school and the other in pharmacy school.. congratulations you'll be an awesome pharmacist..

I am currently a pharmacy technician and have been struggling with weather I should become a pharmacist or stay a technician and I can say you gave me a lot of useful information and encouragement to start school in the fall. ❤️

Thank you so much for posting this video. I have always been thinking of going into the Pharmacy field.

Thank you, this informations are so helpful. Good luck to all of you who are applying to pharmacy school as well as other professions.

Ohmygod thank you SO much. Not only is this a very encouraging detailed video but you also put links to a forum and about the app process. Im currently attending a community college and i dont come from a college prep family so i dont know what the hell i am doing. TYSM

I was just accepted into a 3-year accelerated PharmD program today! This is a great video with some excellent advice. :)

Definitely inspiring me to make videos as well for current and future pharmacy students. Thank you for this.

this was very helpful and inspiring! I'm a pharmacy tech right now and looking to go back to school hopefully to become a pharmacist! thank you!

I am doing pre req for pharm school, and taking all those pre req science classes just wearing me out. Your video just inspired me to work harder. Congrats for almost graduating. Best wishes for you :)

Thanks!! This helped a lot! So many things that go on in life and what u said is very inspirational. 😁

I'm in my first year in pharmacy and I thank you for this video! Midterms are vastly approaching ah!!

Very informative, I really appreciate that you covered lots of the pros and cons about pharmacy and made me feel more confident about my decision :)

wonderful video, I am finishing up pre-reqs for MLT but was wondering if I could go into pharm. Not only was this video helpful, but inspired me.I know its going to be tough, but I tell myself that I am smart and if other people do it, I can too! I had no idea you did beauty vlogs as well, and I am also going to watch those too! I started getting into makeup this year and I am awaiting the naked2 palette that is on its way to me from sephora as we speak. squeee! Thanks again for such an awesome insight!

Props for becoming a pharmacist. I always found it challenging as a med student to study drugs and I'm just amazed how y'all know so much about drugs.

I'm a dual enrolling high school Junior who is in the pharmacy tech program, after watching your video i am more inspired of going to UF to get all my pre-requisite credits in order to apply for Pharmacy school!! Thanks for telling me about your experience! :)

Great idea for a video! My husband just graduated pharmacy school. I LOVE that you're a professional with a beauty blog. I am a lawyer and I feel like too few of us use our knowledge to help people be successful in other areas. Awesome video, love you even more now :) Any idea where you want to end up working? Residency, hospital, retail?

This is my path! Thank you for this video.

Thank you soo much for this video! !! I am a Biology major but had to leave half way threw due to person reasoning. But I am very interested in pursuing my career in the health field. Your vodeo gave me a great guide to get started and I truly appreciate. Good luck on your future endeavors and God bless!! :)

This is very inspiring and makes me feel better on choosing pharmacy course although its sound quite hard but i'll try my best to make sure myself studying and woking in this profession in the future :)

The current PCAT doesn't have negative marking.. you can do all the questions.. Loved your vedio. ❤

Excellent Video! Thank You So Much For Your Insightful Information!

This was everything thank you SO much. I'm seriously considering pharmacy school.

This was so helpful! Thank you so so much.

Thank you!! Your advice is 100% helpful. Blessings and peace!!

Very helpful video, Im only in my 2nd year of university but thought it would be helpful to look into the process ahead of time.

A very helpful insight.. Thanks

This was SO helpful. Thank you!

It's funny. I've been subscribed forever and just now watching this video. My 4th year rotations are starting this May, so I'm really excited and look forward to it. Just wanted to mention that dentistry was also my other career option I was thinking about. ^_^

How cool i never knew u were doing this! I'm graduating soon from my Pharmacy Assistant study.. It's funny cuz the study is 3-4 years.. and we learn the same stuff you learn as a Pharmacist..

I’m still deciding on what I want to do in life. I’ve been thinking about either becoming a pharmacist or a dentist. I’m leaning more towards becoming a pharmacist. I love helping ppl but I don’t want to be touchy either. And being able to give the right medications for various diseases sounds interesting. It’s crazy how I found something that I really want to do

Very informative video! Good luck on your P4 year!

Thanks for this video. :) It really helped motivate me boost my gpa. It sounds like I have a long road to travel before I reach Pharmacy school(Currently I'm in my second year of post-secondary and I'm working a lot at the same time to prevent accumulated debt.).

This is a great video :) Two of my cousins graduated Pharmacy school at USC (my uncle is the head of the department) and although I was never really into science/medicine/chemistry etc (I work in Accounting), I always wondered what it was like and what they'd actually do. So thanks for making this video! Seems like a wonderful career :)

You really are inspiring to me!!! Thank you

I'm glad I was in a 0-6 program. Didn't need to take the PCAT! I just gotta survive pharmacy school which I did and graduated and is licensed this year. Yay! good luck to the rest of your journey to becoming a great pharmacist! =D

I really inspire to graduate and explore new things about pharmacy,thank you so much for that advice..I hope someday,I will be a successful like you too..

OMG THIS VIDEO! I'm so glad I across this. I am a second year undergraduate working on my BS in biology and I recently got super interested in Pharmacy, not because of the money lol I mean I'm gonna be in debt for most part but like the idea of making the medication or recommending. So like YU said have a lot experience? I am studying to get my Pharm tech license and get a job, and also I am going to join the pre pharmacy club at my college! My question is like should I contact the school I'm planning on attending and ask if I'm on the right track? Like idk I'm scared, the pressure of not finding a job is intimidating.

So informative! Thank you so much!

Hope to become a pharmacist myself! Thank u for this!

You really encouraged me😊 It was amazing 👌🏻 Thanks 🌺🌿

I Really loved it

this was a great video! thank you so much, I know I want to be a pharmacist and this was very helpful :)

Very informative video. Thanks so much!

I love that this video is so helpful and informative! Congrats on almost completing Pharmacy school! For the longest time, I wanted to become a pharmacist as well, but in university I changed my mind because I felt like business classes just clicked more better with me! But props to you for completing all of your pre-reqs with a competitive GPA (I mean O chem II was hard), getting great references, doing well on the PCAT, and of course doing well in the interview! That's a really big accomplishment, and you should be really proud of yourself!

This was soo extremely helpful! THANK YOU :)

Thank you sooo much for this video. I admire you so much! I'm 18, and I believe nothing more than that pharmacy is for me! I'm a planner, and I honestly worry so much about whether or not I'll get into pharmacy school. I started college my junior year of high school and graduated with my hs diploma and AA together. I happened to take a few of the prerequisite courses for pharmacy school during that time, but I didn't know that they were prerequisites then. Since I had so much on my plate, my grades were somewhat affected. I hope they don't criticize people too much for retaking a few courses (I got a few Cs). Since the pharmacy schools I'll be applying to in FL only really require the pre-reqs (and an AA for UF), I thought I'd stay at my local community college to save money. However, I'm now considering transferring into a pre-pharmacy track/bachelors program at another university in town (Florida Internat'l Uni.) so I can hopefully get more hands-on and involved in the pharmacy community. What's your opinion? I also volunteer in the pharmacy at a hospital but don't do much other than pick up phone calls and some paper work. Also, I've never had a job so is there anything else that might help me stick out from the rest? Sorry for such a long comment and thank you in advance!

hey Just found ya, more pharmacy students should make videos/become youtubers and share their studies! I'm a pharmacy student myself (not a youtuber tho lol) I love seeing students/ pharmacists around the world share their passion about this interesting field!!

Wow you really broke it down I am thinking about changing from nursing to pharmacy and really have been thinking

Congrats on (almost) graduating and good luck on your licensing exams! I hope I do as well as you do in pharmacy. Did you have a pharm tech job while in school? If not, did you volunteer somewhere?

Thank you so much for this!

omg this videooo was so helpful!!!! :) i really want to be a pharmacist for all the same reasons u said! But i have a question.. what did you major in?? like dont u have to major in something first before u take the pre-reqs?

Thanks al lot for ur advice really i enjoyed listening to you

Your video was very insightful. My question was that if you go out to study pharmacy out of state, would you then have to take another pharmacy exam to come back and practice in your state? Or is pharmacy universal discipline for the US? Does it differ in each state or will pharmacy school cover pharmacy practicum for that state alone? Please comment.

Congratulations on almost being done with Pharmacy school!! This video is extremely helpful! I am a first year completing my undergrad and my dream job is to become a pharmacist. My question to you is would it beneficial to major in bio, chem, or something science related to get into pharm school or is it just important to complete the pre requisites?

Thank you! Love you so much

Thank you for your time to make this for a new comer of Pharmacy. I am still in my prerequisite stage but near the PCAT stage. Sometimes I wonder is it worth it. Looking how much farther I have to go. Then I tell myself, time is going to go by anyway why not stop jinxing yourself. So thanks again for giving your advice and tips I needed it..

Good luck on the naplex. I would not recommend the pronto cards if you plan to be licensed in other states beside Texas. My advice as a new practitioner 2010 grad is apply early, don't wait until the due date, maybe apply at least 2 months ahead. some programs are rolling admission meaning they admit as they go so later dates have fewer spots because they offer and students sent in their acceptance letter and even if they are not you still get 1st pick of interview dates and most likely hear back sooner for your acceptance. Volunteerism is also important or sub for work experience if it's hard to find a tech job, undergrad I helped at the free medical clinic and local hospital. Also be up to date with current events in pharmacy or healthcare you may get questions or schools have essay portion during the interview day. And residencies are another talk...best of luck!

Hi! Thank for making this video, i like your advices very much.. This serve as my motivation.:) btw i'm also a pharmacy student just graduated last april.

YEYYYYYY thats awesome that you did this vid :D

This video helped a lot thank you !

So informative! I'm nowhere near this profession but I still found it interesting lol

I'm starting college this semester as a biochem major because I'm an aspiring pharmacist. Anxiety is getting to me because I don't know if I can do it. But I know if I work hard and stay motivated it will pay off in the end and I might even get into pharmacy school. I'm going to look back at this video when I need some inspiration lol

you covered the macro topics really well

When you said the thing about helping but not touching I was like yess!! I have no idea what I want to do and I'm going to be a senior so I'm stressing because I have no clue.. I know I want something to do with helping people and I kinda like the idea of being a pharmacist

im am going to keep warching your video till i get into phatmacy school, i really wanna go into pharmacy. this video inspired me :) thanks

hello how r you .

Thanks so much for this video! It's really appreciated! :-)

Thank you for putting this out there. I am 42 and dreaming of going back to school to do this. I have 26 yrs in vet med/biomedical research. I can relate when you say that you dont want to touch stuff LOL I am SICK of seeing animals die and having to kill animals. Pharmacy fascinates me and it will force me to get over my math phobia. Even if i dont get there...this inspires me to TRY and makes me believe its possible. Your beautiful inside and out. WELL DONE on this video and congrats on getting this far!! In a few months your THERE!! YOU GO PRETTY ASIAN GIRL!!

8 years!? thats incredible!

Very helpful!

Great video :). I don't want to be a pharmacist, but I still enjoyed the information you shared.

What if you had 2 choices: a top 10 school according to US News & World Report or a 75 ranking school that you are more comfortable with and like the curriculum/environment more?

How long were you in school overall, like including undergrad and in the pharm d program?

Thank you beautiful for the great advice and congrats

Thank you 🙏🏾 for this. 😀

Can pharmacists be employed and do research for pharmaceutical companies instead of just working for retail or clinic

You're positive, thanks!! :D

Very informative thank you.

Great video, I'm starting my pre-reqs and it's probably going to take me least 3 years, and this fall i'm starting my 2nd. Really nervous about everything and I'm trying to get my pharm tech licenses to help me on my journey to get accepted in a pharm school. :s

I am a pharmacist. I think what is most important that you should tell everybody about is that currently there are too many pharmacy schools. Many graduates will have a difficult time finding a job and may have to relocate. Many pharmacies are not hiring full time (at least not 40 hours a week) and the pay and benefits are actually decreasing. I hate to be the one to bring bad news but it is something to consider before spending lots of money, time and effort to finish the pharmacy program. Once you are in pharmacy school, you really do not have to worry about grades unless you plan on doing clinical residency. If you will work retail, which most do, nobody will ever ask you what grades you got. All anybody cares about is if you are licensed.

Hi Jen! I recently landed an interview for pharmacy school! I was wondering what kind of clothes would be appropriate to wear? Maybe you could also tell me what you wore to your interviews? Thanks!!

Oregon state doesn't worry about the pcat and doesn't even require it for entry into osu's pharm school.

I have a questions. What else do you guys do before and during the pharcy school? What job or internship do you have while in school?

You go girl!!!
