What are your general comments?
Despite the negative posts I had read on this site about Howard, I was overall positively impressed. The staff was friendly and well organized and the interview went as scheduled. They really have a good Pharmacy program that just need a makeover. I asked about the low Naplex scores and was happy to hear the many programs and prep courses that have been put in place to correct this. I would attend if accepted.
