A2 - Quidley, April Miller Y1 - 2013 N1 - T2 - Roadmap to Postgraduate Training in Pharmacy AB - After months of anticipation, you find out that you matched! From the moment you find out the match results, your emotions go into overdrive and your mind becomes a whirlwind of questions. First, take a deep breath and think about the following: you have to finish pharmacy school, find a place to live, take your boards, get licensed in one or more states, and figure out your student loan situation. The key to taking care of all this business is to plan ahead. Even in the months before the match, you can create a timeline and begin the process of preparing for the upcoming changes. Before the match you can set a goal of when you would ideally like to take the boards, complete appropriate paperwork, and work with your loan provider to set up an alternative loan repayment program while you are a resident. The more organized and prepared you are for the changes that are about to ensue, the better you will be able to complete everything that needs to be done in the post-match days. You do not want to spend the last 2 months of pharmacy school running yourself ragged. You want to spend your time soaking up 2 more months of knowledge as a pharmacy student, celebrating graduation with your family and friends, and looking toward the next year of your life with excitement and anticipation.
