Pharmacceptance
Hey all!
I've been reading some of the posts on here and I guess I have a situation that would sort of fit in the WAMC forum, but not exactly.
My problem is that right now, I'm about to get my BS in Bio, and my gpa is low (about a 2.8). I have most of my pre-reqs down for some pharm schools, but I just don't think my GPA is good enough to really be competitive. I get to take my first PCAT this Saturday, so I'm not sure how I'll do there.
So I guess my question is, should I rush everything now and try to get in on this cycle, or get my degree, work a bit while taking some more classes in hopes of raising my GPA.
However, will I be able to raise my GPA enough in a year's time? I was also thinking that I could get pharm tech certified in that year.
Should I take some grad classes if I do decide to wait a year in case I get rejected so that they'll work towards my master's?
As you can see, my mind right now is torn into shreds. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
