Pre-Med & Medical School High School Student Topics

<p>The need to have a "hook" that makes you stand out is being emphasized alot by everyone. </p>

<p>How far will owning my own business: in this case a pharmacy help me in terms of admissions to BS/BA/MD programs and pharmd programs? </p>

<p>Owning a pharmacy for the most part is an extension of running a "professional business" in that certain skills/knowledge is required. At the same time there is a large business aspect that conflicts with the true purpose of most of these programs. </p>

<p>I've come to understand that these programs look for kids who are passionate about becoming a doctor/pharmacist.</p>

<p>Can I display "true passion" while earning money?</p>

<p>WILL OWNING MY OWN BUSINESS BECOME A "HOOK" or "LIABILITY" in terms of BS/BA/MD programs/ pharmd programs? </p>

<p>WILL IT HELP AT ALL?</p>
