Help, i never took a communication class, and i realized that class is a prereq for almost all the colleges here in california....I noticed that for USC communicaiton is actually only required for international students...

If i never took a communicatoin class, does that mean i am screwed?

You can just take it next semester or in the summer. Update your planned courses during the winter update window.

you will need to take it sometime before the end of summer. you can enroll for a CC's winter intersession (night class) to fit it in your schedule if you really need to or wait for spring/summer.

Depending on the course, some of the CA schools would accept and some won't. UCSF accepts public speaking only but not "interpersonal communication."

Make sure that you double check with the school to confirm that the course you decide to take counts!

so if i never took the course, do i put somewhere in my pharmcas app that i would take that class later? or is it ok to leave it blank as long as i finish up that class before my term starts

I honesly really think you should read instructions on filling out pharmcas and how to enter in-progress courses, it will be to your benefit. It's on pharmcas website. ;)
