• Be concise– Not as Helpful:

• Our chapter feels it is very important to have a lot of involvement with the pre-pharmacy students because we want to get to know them before they get into pharmacy school and before they are members of our chapter. We like to do things with the pre-pharmacy students. It is our mission to get to know each and everyone of the pre-pharmacy students. The pre-pharmacy students at our school are really smart, funny and cool.

– Helpful:• The Awesome School of Pharmacy Chapter of APhA-ASP hosted

an event for pre-pharmacy students with information booths including PCAT information, study skills, financial aid and internship information.
