This is an MBA forum. MBA applicants come from many different backgrounds and believe it or not pharmacy may be one of them. One of the most common questions around here is about work experience and therefore that pertains to those activities that you partake in before B-School so I ask again how is that irrelevant to this forum?
Did you know that nearly 10% of the GDP is spent on healthcare and it’s one of the fastest growing expenditures? There’s a lot of “business” to be done in that field and the opportunities are expanding with little regard to state of the economy. People will pay a premium to live. Period.
I didn’t know that earning >3.0 in a Doctoral program qualified as “mediocre” but if you say so…
Average entry stats in my year for the Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy are SAT: 1400/1600 or 2100/2400 and at least top 15% of your HS graduating class. I didn’t know that those stats would qualify as “average” or “below average” since by definition “average” in this case means “median” which is middle of the pack. I don’t believe that a school with entry stats like that is “average” or “below average” compared to all the undergraduate schools that are accredited in the US…
Oh, this says it all…
“MY FATHER…”
…bought me a BMW…
…told me so…
…donated large sums of money so that I could get into college…
…paid for my school…</p>
<p>…we get it. You’re dependent on your father…</p>
