I'm a community pharmacist who has been practicing for almost 5-6 years now. I recently made up my mind on changing my career.
After couple of years in the workforce, I realized and came to a point that this is not the right path for me. I'm seriously considering
pursuing a PHD.
I was wondering if the adcomms from universities put so much importance on your age?!! Also, if the fact of me changing my career would have any negative impact on my application when I apply?!! I'm worried they might think I'm a bit uncertain about what I want, Is that right?!! I have to say this was particularly right when I was young, right after I finished my bachelor. I wasn't 100% sure of what I want at that time, but now after having a good experience in life, I feel I'm mature enough to take such a decision.
What do you guys think?!!
Also, can anyone help me with graduate studies in pharmacy?!! Which areas seem to have a good future opportunities?!! I'm somewhat attracted to pharmacology and cancer research. Any other ideas or hints would be highly appreciated!
Thanks good People
