Pls how many courses are they?
First of all pharmacy has 6 departments. A pharmacy student must pass through all of these departments to be a pharmacist. The courses? I can't start listing them from year 2 to year 6 sir. They are quite plenty.

Some people go 5-8 hours a day, I go less than 2 hours and I have been doing well. What works for one may not work for another... Just know yourself and act smartly. I have already passed my first Mbbs and in my clinical years

I find it difficult to believe. Everyone is different! I am a medical student and I have never read more than 2 hours in a day. I am still doing well and making good use of my time. As a student, you only have to study smart!
I subscribe to that..."study smart".
it's how efficient the hrs u use for reading are.

That's nor hard but some ppl are saying that I'll will have to read night till daybreak and worse I'll have to cram, which is what I can't do.

They're right and it's a really stressful course to study...Lots of lab work and lab reports to write. My friends are always complaining

Pharmacy is the hardest course to study in Nigeria. Harder than Dentistry, harder than medicine or even veterinary medicine.
But it is not insurmountable.
Lol.... I tried so hard to ignore this, but i just couldn't help it....
Say what u know bro..... U may be studying pharmacy, but u haven't tried MBBS/BDS, so don't go about making invalid deductions, just to mislead the public.....
Yeh!! Vet?? Let's not go there.....

This sir, is not an invalid deduction.
The high attrition rates in pharmacy school is enough to draw a logical, factual conclusion when compared to that in those other courses I listed.

Please is Pharmacy really that hard because I've been seeing comments here on NL how pharmacy is even more harder than medicine and it's making me kind of scared because I don't want to struggle in school.

Nairalanders, pls I need your opinion on this issue. Thanks
In terms of hard/difficulty of the concepts? No. It is the same as most other courses, difference is the standards, C's and D's are not tolerated in many of their courses. Pharmacy and medicine are overrated, for me physics is more hard/difficult than all, and the most underated course in Nigeria.

If you have passion for it, key into your passion because a time is coming when you will need it and also there is nothing you cannot do once you are in the right path. Others have passed through pharmacy and definitely you can and you will. Blessings✌

2hrs a whole day cannot be enough..
It might be enough for him sir. Everyone has a different IQ. He might be someone whose brain easily grab things and retain it for a long period of time. What someone can read for 7 hours and get 50%, another person can read it for 3 hrs and get 80%

Anybody can study anything. Am "average" student can be anything he/she wants to be. Its simple, of you work hard enough, positive results are bound to follow.
Again you can study anything on earth you want to study. Nothing like average.
Once you set your goals, make good friends, set a study plan, have discipline(very important), study hard and smart, there's nothing stopping you from becoming anything you want to become.

It's simple, set your goals on the target, work hard and smart towards it and Viola! You have reached your target.
