With the new year comes the thought of New Year’s resolutions. This time of year is one of my favorites as it brings the feeling of a fresh start and gives a gentle nudge to self-reflect on the year prior.

Meet Grace Thompson, a third-year PharmD candidate at the University South Carolina College of Pharmacy. 

"You’re the only one who knows what you need. Set your goals and hold yourself accountable."

When I began my pharmacy school journey in 2019, the idea of receiving my PharmD degree in the year 2025 seemed like a lifetime away. Now, that year is upon us! While I do not know what program, state, or even time zone I will reside in next year, I have found comfort through setting a goal for myself that is attainable regardless of my physical location.
