On the professional side, it is challenging to continue learning. Patients & medical professionals rely on the Pharmacist for drug information. There is satisfaction in this. On the personal side, Pharmacy provides a stable & comfortable living. Six years of hard work can provide you with a lifetime of security. High school students should focus on Math & Science courses and try to intern/shadow a Pharmacist in the hospital or retail setting to see just what they do.

It is a Professional school leading you to a Professional degree. Where else can an 18 year old untrained, unskilled high school senior enter an intensive curriculum and exit 6 years later as a Doctor of Pharmacy; a medical Professional; authority & master of the subject, commanding respect from peers and compensation in the real world? As an ACP graduate, I am called upon by doctors,nurses, schools, colleges and patients to provide drug information & care. I make hundreds of decisions on a daily basis that can affect patient care. Did I party at ACP and waste time? Some, but not much. I made sacrifices and am satsfied with those I made. The rewards of a satisfying career in a respected Profession has served me well, for many years. There has been no economic downturn for me. I am proud to be a Pharmacist, and ACP graduate. Receiving an intensive ACP education prepares you for the demands of the career. The "spoon-feeding" of high school education does not exist at ACP. You are there to learn, absorb, grow, mature. If you can't hack it, then a move to a "real" college is probably best. Don't apply to ACP if you've been rejected from other schools, rather enter with a desire to learn, dedication to the subject, a determination to be the best you can be in an ever-changing & dynamic profession, motivated to tackle the subject matter head-on. I NEVER get tired of all there is to learn! In this world you get what you pay for - you cannot become a Professional at just any college. There lies the difference.

Grades are not usually curved and there are very few easy courses. If you want a small school where all students in a specific year of study are taking the exact same courses then this place is for you. Many students study together, especially in year 1 & 2. You will have to look for activities to do, as there are only a few sports teams to support or clubs to join. I have found that I really don't have a lot of free time anyway. If you want to focus on your future career of pharmacy and get a good education at a small school, then ACP will be for you. Find a group of friends similar to yourself and you will be able to party all you want. If you are looking for a big social scene with many activities, then don't come here. It has been a good fit for me. Perceived Campus Safety: A+, Innovation: C Have a Question? Your Response/Question:     To be informed when someone replies to your comment.
