I want to become a pharmacist. In CA, where I live it is really competitive to get into pharm school and now I am considering a 0-6 school where you get in straight from high school. However, I am in an area that I love (San Diego) and with my family. Should I leave the place I've loved for so long for pharmacy school and to pursue my dream. If I stay here nothing is guaranteed and I feel it would be a risk and it would take 8 years if I do make it. The school far from here would be 6 years and given that I will keep a certain GPA, I will graduate will my degree. What would YOU do? I will probably be going to NY or Boston. My mom has a psychological disorder, but I love my granny and my dad and watching football every Sunday with my dad. If I leave I will miss all this, but my dream is important to me too. What would YOU do knowing that pharmacy is very competitive in CA and would require extra work on my end?
