Maybe a bachelors. But if you have a PhD in anything, you could at least teach somewhere.

I'm surprised you haven't.

The application process can get pretty competitive at the good programs. Having experience as a technician will give you a huge advantage of the over other applicants.

>> No.1308588

>>1308572

So you won't pursue a Pharm D. because you can't get experience as a Pharm Tech?

You'd be better off at least applying...if not...settle for a shitty school. It's just a fucking piece of paper.

>> No.1308654 [DELETED] 

>>1308588

I haven't ruled out applying to some of the newer, less competitive programs. I would rather attend an established program though, considering even the health care job market is becoming saturated these days.

>> No.1308713

>>1308654

Doctors, Nurses, and Pharmacists are all needed....become a part of the saturation that gets the job because you want it, and not the part doing it for money.

FUCKING BULLSHIT

Mathematics and statistics are both on the critical skills shortage list. If you have those skills then its an employees market, you can take that shit anywhere. (assuming you actually have any skill, rather than just being one of those able to follow instructions and pass exams, but not actually able to think for yourself sort of 'mathematicians')

The only negative is, lots of people in business see a phd as an inability to turn theory into useful strategies rather than a bonus.

PhD in organic chemistry here,

I am in an extremely saturated market and i still manage to make a decent living. I owed nothing upon graduation; it's not anyone else's fault you borrowed a bunch of money. Also, I didn't grow up rich or anything before you ask.
