An online blog from the College of Pharmacy lists five essential tips when attending pharmacy school, no matter where you go. The first tip is prioritizing self-care, while the second is establishing a support system. They recommend staying in touch with family and friends because they can provide the fuel you need to push through pharmacy school. Interacting with people who aren't in pharmacy school can be refreshing! Classmates can also be great support systems because you will be sharing a similar experience with them over the next four years, and they will likely be going through the same feelings and events as you. But for most people, having the support of family and friends is paramount to succeeding in pharmacy school.
The interviewers want to know that if you were accepted into Wayne State University, you would have the support required for your heavy and challenging pharmacy program workload. Discuss your support system and how your family and friends are excited about your career. You can also mention anyone in your family who may have had a similar path in the pharmaceutical industry.
