The lack of urgency with preparing for the NAPLEX and MPJE always bothered me. It's like here's the one thing that if you don't pass, you don't work, and students are completing APPE requirements instead of getting deep into their preparation. In this episode, I talk about how NAPLEX pass rates which were in the high 90s in 2009 are now in the high 70s. Only 1554 students last year graduated from a school of pharmacy with a pass rate in the 90s. Make sure you prepare early and often for the NAPLEX. I reference a pharmacology review course here: https://residency.teachable.com/p/mobile and that TLDRPharmacy has some great MPJE materials.

My wife and I matched in the old scramble (which is now more organized as Phase II) but 15 years later she is in an ambulatory care clinical position and I have been teaching in college for that same time, both jobs we love. In this episode, I talk about the importance of mentors and how those residencies available in the scramble can lead to an excellent career that is very work/life balance excellent as well.

Phase II is about speed. With over 700 unfilled PGY 1 positions and only a few hundred more than that who will put in applications, you do have a very good chance in Phase II.
If you want my one-on-one help go to https://residency.teachable.com/p/phase2
My turnaround is around 24 hours.
The data show that you should have a better than 50% chance of matching in Phase II this year with the number of available positions, even better if you are looking for a community pharmacy position.

The odds of matching to residency are very dependent on the school of pharmacy you are going to, while the top schools match above 90%, the lowest schools match at 20%, so it's still a good idea to start job hunting before the match because there are hundreds of pharmacists getting the news on the exact same day.
If you need my help in Phase II, you can find my website here, I expect there will be close to 700 open positions after Phase I.

In this episode, I go over the factors that will stand as the headwinds against your matching vs. some of the tailwinds that will help you get there and it depends a lot on where you go to school and where you apply.
Some of these factors you can affect, some you can't, but the most important thing is to recognize where to spend your time over the next few weeks to get the very best chance.

You just realized how many people you are competing against and how qualified they are. How in the world are you going to stand out? Start by worrying about the match rather than winning the "best applicant." Often the rubrics end up in multiple ties and it's the relationships that matter more than anything else.

If you're an introvert, you're likely dreading the interview. The key is to get out of your own head by becoming more interested in the other person than you are about trying to tell your own story. It may sound counter-intuitive, but if you put the other person first, you'll find yourself landing a residency in the fall. Here's the residency interview book:

Tool like ChatGPT can provide a letter of intent in just a few seconds. However, that generative AI comes from the examples ChatGPT found from others and can result in letters that are very similar to other applicants. Your biggest concern should be if you are forgotten in a sea of applications. By using generative AI properly, you can gain an advantage. By using it wrong, you might be labeled a cheater and not considered. In this episode, I help you walk the straight and narrow.
