Is it easier to become a Dentist or a Pharmacist?

Schooling wise?

Answer:
Schooling wise, Pharmacy school is much easier. A pharmacy degree can be achieved 1-2 years sooner and the courseload is lighter. Dental school is 4 years post-grad and for me was basically 40 hours a week including summers.

Think about the earning potential and the potential for advancement. Do you want to count pills in a Kmart for the rest of your life, or do you want to be your own boss and make five times as much money?

Answer:
Hi,

Nothing is simple if you want to do it right.

However, becoming a pharmacist is easier. But again, if you don't do it right, you might end up killing a person. Always stay true to your cause !

A dentist has to learn basic pharmacology on top of other subjects as well, but a pharmacist does not necessarily have to learn Anatomy, Physiology and other dental stuff in details.

I’m not even getting into the money making potential or the time needed to become a dentist. That has been discussed before.
