Guys I'm not about to take any time off... As it is I've got scholarships for 5yrs.... If I take time out those are gone...
I have been sort of looking at other fields... Just not sure what.... I realize money isn't everything... But it will be hard to match pharmacist pay....

Sid, the sholarships are important, but don't be a slave to them. That's exactly where I made my first mistake. My scholarships also partially kept me out of the engineering department, because I would have lost them if my grades dropped below 3.3. Trust me, losing the free money may double the cost of your education, but in the process you may increase the VALUE of the education exponentially. It's value you need to worry about, not the cost. Among many other things in life, the cheapest solution is often not the best or even most cost effective. If you did some internships through the school you may not lose the scholarship, just some time on the eligibility clock.
It sounds like a lot of people on the board suggest some time off may not be a mistake. It's not what you want to hear, but sometimes the school of hard knocks has the best pupils... I have a feeling some of my fellow classmates are out there
