I am so happy i found this thread.
I have a question about my chances of getting admitted into a pharmacy program. I recently graduated with my bachelors in nursing and I have since continued with my pre-pharm classes. My overall GPA is 3.8 and my science GPA is 4.0. I am taking physics and organic chem 1 currently and the second part will be next semester. Hopefully these classes will not pull my GPA down. I do not have any experience in pharmacy but I have shadowed a pharmacy. My letters of recommendations are from a pharmacist, my clinical instructor in nursing school and an instructor. I work full-time as a nurse and have only a few hours volunteering. I have a pharm tech license, but it has been hard to work with it because i need to pay off my student loans and support my family with my job as a nurse. I am still waiting on my PCAT scores and I cannot even predict on how I did. The schools I am applying to are UIC (Got my 1st degree here), Chicago state university, Midwestern Downers grove and Creighton (distance pathway). Feedback and suggestions about what i can do to increase my chances are welcomed. Thanks
