Pharmacy Or Nursing? by Capableben(op): 8:20am On Mar 11, 2016
My younger sister put in for Nursing, UNN in the just concluded Jamb and she scored 220.
I personally feel Pharmacy is better with regards to its career prospects (Salary, independence, work comfort) and I intend to make her change to pharmacy via the JAMB Change of course form before her post Utme later in the year..
Pharmacists in the house, do u think I'm right by saying u guys are better off compared to nurses?
Do u Guys receive higher salaries compared to nurses?
Finally, hope it won't be a risk changing course at this time.
Thanks

Note: She's cool with the decision too.

Pharmacy is better but u need to sit ur sister and educate her on but professions then allow her make her choice.
U can't force her to study wat she doesn't want. Each course have its own challenges dat y u may see a remarkably different in d number of applicants.
