And I heard that they don't even need to use most of the stuff they learn at uni.

Though I think the pay is pretty good.

wrong.

the pay is only good if you buy and run your own pharmacy, then you can earn between 70-100k a year. otherwise you'll be lucky to earn about 65k a year.

seems like decent money.

wow $45... thats insane. a lot of senior pharmacists dont get paid that much.
and yeah another crap thing about pharmacy is the hours. 50-65 hours a week is intense.

wee bit more complicated than that. (from my perspective) learning all the generics and house brands takes a while.
