THE WORST UNIVERSITY .. DMV EQUIVALENT OF AN EDUCATION
I completed the Pharmacy program at this school and I'll tell you right now that this is the worst pharmacy school in NY. Go to St.Johns ,Touro, but do not consider this a choice if you decide on pharmacy. Why?
1. The administration that handles everything within in pharmacy is terrible in trying to help any student. They are hostile towards any question that you may have and in general are not pleasant to deal with. When you do have to deal with them its like pulling teeth they will never try to help you and if a problem comes up its automatically your fault. I've known students that had to repeat classes because they deleted there courses from there transcript! Imagine you passing a class and then having to repeat it because they made a mistake and won't admit to it.
2. The faculty are just there to do a job and move on. The teachers with the exception of a few are there to teach off a syllabus in subjects they are not familiar with and move on and collect there paycheck. They are not teachers there union workers. THEY COULD CARE LESS. Some teachers are very knowledgeable but I think they're exhausted from dealing with nonsense administration and angry students that they just don't care anymore.
3. The school itself is just BAD. The HS107 pharmacy room where students will spend most of there time had BED BUGS last year! The library is a joke its either freezing or a sauna which makes for a great study environment.
4. The school will nickle and dime you to the very end. The graduating class now has to pay money to take Kaplan courses because the school wants to raise its status in NAPLEX scores. Majority of students pass the NAPLEX BUT the school wants to have higher scores so they can attract more students. This is all well and good except its the average student with already $150K in loans that has to pay for this program out of there own pocket. ST. JOHNS gives the review course for the NAPLEX for FREE!
This school will rob you, and leave you with a joke of an education. Don't believe me? Most good NYC hospitals won't take students from LIU for Clinical Pharmacy residence because they consider LIU pharmacy education sub par.
And as a personal message to Harold L. Kirschenbaum. How can you teach students if you've never worked a day in your life in a pharmacy?
