When 16-year-old Hari Sowrirajan says, “You can’t just buy nanoparticles at the supermarket,” you realize quickly that this down-to-earth high school student is doing some out-of-this-world science.

Dear Incoming P4 Student,
There’s a lot to be said about your achievement thus far. The first three years of pharmacy school were far from easy, and I’m pleased to inform you that all those long nights of studying have finally come to fruition. The sleepless, caffeine-fueled nights are finally paying off. I’m talking, of course, about your fourth-year rotations. You will now have the opportunity to take all the knowledge gained over the past three years of training and implement them in ways you never realized. However, I can assure you that you will continue to impress not only your preceptors and fellow healthcare providers, but also yourself. Read More

It’s also the point that I realized that I was really going to graduate pharmacy school and have a career as a pharmacist. This may sound silly to some, but for me it was a turning point. Read More

Dear Incoming P2 Student,
Congratulations! You have made it through your P1 year, the “Year of Firsts” – your first verbal exam, the first time you may have stepped foot in an actual pharmacy, the first time you’ve counseled a patient (whether real or standardized), etc. All of these firsts make it a challenging, yet very exciting and quick-paced year. The P1 year was a year to really get your feet wet and discover what being a pharmacist really entails. So now you may be wondering what to expect for P2 year… Read More
Dear P1 Student:
Before you know it, you will be where I am. It may seem hard to fathom now, but soon you will be nearing graduation. And even though four years of learning separate you and I, we both will be pharmacists in the blink of an eye. Read More
