    Quick TPN question

    I can't be sure - we would need the exact wording of the question to be sure what it says - however, just have peace in knowing that an ambiguous question like this will NOT be on the NAPLEX.

    CVS or Walgreens

    Both: -All about the metrics, literally any metric you can think of -Vaccinations! Walgreens: -Lots of floaters and people who fill in at different stores, get to meet a lot of people. -Express pay is convenient -Computer systems have a lot of glitches which Walgreens seems to ignore and not...

    Does GPA matter when you apply for a hospital job?

    You weren't the president of Rho Chi? No worries, just go back to CVS and don't expect to get hired ;)

    Question from a Patient - CVS Error

    You've never worked behind the counter, you have no idea how many times per day this happens. Wagrxm made a great point, and I believe this to be the crux of where the story crumbles, about how odd it was that the count was only #10 instead of #30, for the factors I am about to list: -I'd...

    New Pharmacist - Look Young For My Age

    When I was hired as a tech for CVS I had to do training at another store. I walked in a little before opening and I asked the lady who was inside "aren't pharmacists supposed to be the ones to open the pharmacy?" She replied "I am the pharmacist." I was in total disbelief, she looked no older...

    A brief look at my transcript

    You should be just fine! But I don't want you to put you on a high horse...so keep working hard! They will understand you messed up, it looks like you're doing a great job in making up for it. That shows real maturity, exactly what they're looking for in a future pharmacist. What impressed me...

    CVS lawsuit...

    ^Well, essentially (and this is only what I've heard from my pharmacist at CVS) they like to "force" their older pharmacists into retirement. They do this so they can have an excuse to hire a cheap new grad...They will say their performance hasn't been up to par for the most part. Unless they...

    University of Findlay or Ohio Northern? Also.. Calling all Pharm Techs

    My advice: Go to a 4 year school, apply after your 2nd year. There are a number of reasons why I say this: -ONU and Findlay are no fun whatsoever compared to UC, Indiana, or Ohio State. Trust me, no matter how big of a bookworm you think you are, you will want to have fun and have a quality...
