7 Things Every Pharmacy Major Deals With

Some people may think that being a pre-pharmacy major is easy, but those of us who have that major are basically struggling to survive on a daily basis. These are just a few of the many things that pharmacy majors deal with day-to-day.


1. They help each other succeed because they couldn't survive alone.

Pharmacy is one of the hardest majors on campus. Therefore, most people struggle with it. It's good to have those friends to ask questions to when you're unsure of how to solve a certain problem.

2. After having many chemistry and biology tests on the same day, they all exhibit the same attitude.

We need our bed and no human contact after we've struggled through three tests in one day.


3. They get depressed when they realize their friends with other majors will graduate in only 4 years.

Most pharmacy programs are about seven years long unlike a four-year bachelor's degree. Pharmacy majors are still in school and have tons of student debt while they see their friends already in their job field of choice.


4."You're going to school for so long just to count pills and put them in a bottle?"

Pharmacists are basically unsung heroes of the medical world. Pharmacists go the extra mile everyday to make sure that people are receiving the best quality of care. They counsel patients, give injections, and interpret how drug interactions will or won't affect you. Oh, and sometimes they count pills. That's important too.


5. They all have a common hobby of interest if they have a few hours of free time.

Sleep is golden for pharmacy majors. Most weeks they go with an average of four hours of sleep per night so they basically run off caffeine throughout the day.


6. They miss out on valuable time with family and friends.

One of the many downfalls of being a pharmacy major is that they have to pass on a few fun opportunities if they take place the weekend before a huge test, such as football games or socials, if they plan to pass.


7. But they all know one day all of it will pay off.

One day after they graduate pharmacy school and get their degree, all the stress and late nights of studying will definitely pay off.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
