<p>@helloworld Now that my son is P2 and our neighbors daughter is P3 I can give you some more insight. Again, both are great schools and you’ll do well with either one. If you look at size of school, Pitt is large, Rutgers is huge. Rutgers class size of their Pharmacy school is larger also. My son’s class is 114. He’s had the opportunity to travel to the national Pharmacist’s conference in Orlando last year, and the National Clinical Pharmacist’s conference in Austin this year. He met the National Pharmacists President and they hosted him at Pitt.

<p>My son is focusing on Clinical Pharmacy and wants to do a residency for an advanced certification after PharmD. I’m not saying you can’t do these types of things at other schools, but I know they are available at Pitt. Since there are 3 hospitals right on campus there is a real atmosphere of Health related professions. </p>
