What are ways to increase your changes of being accepted to four year colleges, despite being from a low income area?

Another question I have is how can I stand out to colleges while being from a low income area that, to me, seems to limit my opportunities? I have had personal experiences losing great opportunities due to where I am from. #college #high-school #low-income-area #workforce #steam #stem #science #technology #engineering #math #forensics #pharmaceuticals #medicine #space-exploration #space #planetary-science #astrophysics #astronomy #career #advice

What are the challenges I may face pursuing a career in science, and how can I stand out among the rest?

For my first two years in high school I have been studying biotechnology and I have been working diligently in preparing myself for college and the workforce. Though I have not decided on an exact career, I am deeply considering one within forensics, pharmaceuticals, or in the space exploration fields. What are some of the challenges students may face when applying for college, throughout college, and in the workforce? How can I stand out from the rest? #high-school #student #biotechnology #workforce #science #career #forensics #medicine #pharmaceuticals #space-exploration #future #technology #stem #steam #nasa #astrophysics #planetary-science #women-in-stem

My major is chemical engineering and I want to work with pharmaceuticals. So, I’m currently looking for an intern in that area. The only problem is that most of the companies I know work with materials. What would be some companies that I can look to for internship opportunities for college students that work with pharmaceuticals? #internship #chemcialengineer #pharmaceuticals

Best pre-college volunteer options for aspiring pharmacists?

What can I do to volunteer in high school if possible and what school is best for this career option? I want my application to be as strong as possible for med school, and that includes any experience I can get before applying for colleges, but I don't know where I'd start, how I can do it and the proper steps to get there. As for schools, my dream school is UCLA, however, I'm not entirely sure how good that school is for the degrees I'd need (however I hear UCLA is good across the board with education). That and if I don't get accepted I know it's good to always have back up options so I just wanted some input! Thank you so so so much for taking the time to read and respond! #medicine #pharmaceuticals #pharmacy #pharmacist #pharmacists

What high school / college courses are best for people wanting to go into Pharmaceuticals?

Hello! I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice on which high school and or college courses could be best for me to take if I wanted to go into a career in pharmaceuticals, as next year I begin high school and want to make my chances as high as possible for getting into a good school and (hopefully) securing a degree in the future, as this career has been something I'm very passionate about. I participate in my schools Science Olympiad team and work very hard in the medical based competitions. Next year I already plan on doing honors biology and have gotten accepted into the class, but I wanted input on other classes that would be key to take. Also a side question about that: if I take 2 years of early college in high school and graduate with an associates degree: could that potentially take off two years of my college experiences? It's something I plan on doing and I know going to school for this career overall is 8 years so I was just curious. #medicine #pharmaceuticals #pharmacy #pharmacist #pharmacists

Does research fulfill the need for creativity?

I'm really deep into art as a hobby, but lately, I've been thinking about it more seriously the more people compliment me. I'm not sure I want to get rid of my plan to go into Biomed or pharmaceutical research, so I thought to ask about how they would really differ in terms of creative engagement. Like, does it get creative or exciting? This is literally my lifetime dilemma and I'm gonna die. #biomedical-engineering #pharmaceuticals

What types of organizations will best help someone pursuing pharmacology have hands on experience?

Anyone can open a book and read. True learning comes from when you are put into situations and have to take the knowledge you acquired from books or lectures and apply it to real life situations. Therefore, to make my education meaningful and have a true impact in my field. I would like to find organizations and internships to help me truly learn the content. #pharmaceuticals #internships

Is there shadowing for pharmacists?

I understand in the medicine field, students who want to be nurses or doctors attend shadowing for actual doctors or in hospitals to learn and assist in the actual work place. I don't know if that is the case for pharmacists as well and if it is how I would go about becoming a "shadower." #pharmaceuticals #medicine

What are some recommended summer activities that I can do over the summer to show my interest in the Pharmaceutical Sciences field?

As a high school student, I have always wanted to pursue in the medical field. However, I am leaning more on the chemistry aspect, rather than biology (though I want to do both). So I figured that the best option for me is pharmaceutical sciences. The problem now I am having is deciding what summer programs/jobs best fit me for my major, so colleges can see through my application that I am competent and qualified for this major. Any suggestions? #biology #chemistry #pharmaceuticals #summer-jobs #summer-internship #summer-programs #career-details
