GEM-When to get relevant work exp?!

Posted: 29 Apr 2013 04:51 AM PDT

Hello,
Im about to start my pharmacy degree in September but eventually want to apply to study medicine.

I have very little experience of working in a caring role (iv heard some uni's require at least 6 months :/ ).

When is the best time to start applying for jobs e.g as a healthcare /ward assistant? Now? or closer to the end of my 4-year pharmacy course??

Is it possible to balance a job with uni life and the demands of a pharmacy student?

Any advice is appreciated :)
