Pharmacy is a job that requires a lot of responsibility, so pharmacists should truly enjoy what they do. This question asked applicants what they did and didn't like about their studies to see if they enjoyed the overall experience of studying pharmacy. What to look for:

☛ Self-awareness
☛ Commitment to the pharmacy profession
☛ Communication skills

I enjoyed the APPE we had to complete. The chance to work in a real job, with supervision, reinforced my belief that this is the career for me. It was excellent preparation for the job and probably the best time I had in school. As far as weaknesses go, Calculus is the one class that caused me the most trouble. I had to study extremely hard to pass my exams, but I did, and while I didn't enjoy it, the sense of accomplishment I felt when I passed made it all worth it.
