"My favorite course in pharmacy school was Cardiology. At first, this was my hardest class because the subject material was so detailed, but my faculty made the information so engaging and memorable, it became my favorite course. It was also really helpful as I was doing an IPPE rotation at Kaiser and worked with several patients with cardio issues. Between that rotation and the course, the material stood out to me and gave me a deep understanding of the field."
