Its taken me a while to seek advice about my situation, but time is forcing me to make a decision. I was dismissed from pharmacy school the summer before 2nd year in 2007 after failing my 4th course. At first I came to the conclusion that I didn't want to do pharmacy and sabotaged myself in a few classes, placed on probation, cut off from the parental lifeline, got back in working part time to cashflow bills and ended up biting the last failure in the summer. I have since earned my respiratory therapist license and a bachelors and now work in a large hospital ICU. Anyone that has ever failed at something as large as pharmacy school can understand the "unfinished business" mindset acting as a dragging ball in chain. I'm 30 years old now, not married, no kids and have an opportunity to get back in pharmacy school. The philosophy I have developed in life is to finish what I start, no matter what it is. Not accepted yet, but if so would it be wise to go back and get this degree done or simply cut my losses? Any pharmacists in the field or PharmD's who went back and finished?
