I had 2 friends from HS go down the pharmacist road, both went to UOP in Sacramento. Both had the
GPA and the intelligence to do so. First one made it to his final exam in inorganic chemistry, looked at the exam, took the Bic lighter out of his pocket, set it ablaze, dropped it in the waste receptacle and headed for home. Second one had his masters in short order, looked at the next schooling step and where it would lead and said "Screw it!". Put in an application with Civil Service, got picked up by the FDA, inspected ships and their consumable cargos at The Port of Los Angeles. Got tired of that after 5 years, bid on a job for the USFS and became a park ranger at Yosemite .
