Entry grades are ridiculously high for the job! All you do is check boxes all day. Busy stressful job. IF... you get a job in the 1st place!! Too many pharmacists. Competition is high, wages are falling! Dont do it.

Talk to real pharmacists and you will know. Google falling pharmacists wages, most recently Tescos reduced their locum rates to £20.50 an hr. Before that, it was Lloyds.

Hi,

I just completed Pharmacology degree with 2:1 and was wondering if there is any conversion routes to Pharmacy, apart from starting the 4 year mpharma route. Many thanks
