Controlling Mother. help? How do I convince her?

<p>Thank you creasemonkey!
I didn’t know that for the UoP PharmD program, you’d have to go through an interview/screening process again. Thanks to your information, I looked deeper into that and a current student in the 3+3 program said that indeed, there would be another selective process. The whole reason I applied to these accelerated PharmD programs was to avoid having to go through a reapplication process. (Otherwise, I could just go to a UC and graduate and then apply to pharmacy school). I’m also quite lazy and the fact of reapplying for school again doesn’t seem too appealing. In addition, the TJL Pharmacy School at UoP is very competitive, as they admit only 100 students. </p>

<p>Is it too personal of a question to ask, how much money DS spent in terms of a month? Like living expenses and what not? I think that’s the major problem/issue my mother is concerned about.</p>
