"What type of a pharmacist do we want to graduate?... The pharmacist of the future should not only be knowledgeable, creative, and an effective communicator but also be a motivated professional ready to learn new concepts and function as a team player. Keeping these attributes in mind, we must think beyond time spent on education and training; quality not just the credit hours of our courses, should be evaluated. A teacher should demonstrate an enthusiasm and excitement for the subject, genuine concern for the student, and a process of learning the material. The students should learn how to raise and answer important questions. An intellectually stimulating session can produce larger payoffs than simple one-way transfer of facts. It is my experience that once students become enthusiastic about the subject matter, they work hard to learn both within and outside the classroom."

How can we become enthusiastic about the subject matter if we have so many subjects to study?
we cannot focus only on one subject and we don't have enough time to study and fully understand and remember all that we are studying...
Sometimes i felt that i am running out of time to do all the taks i am suppose to do... But still i'm dreaming to become one of the best pharmacists someday...Hope it will come true...
Sir, thanks for being an inspiration...
