I thought my GPA was higher than it was and felt pretty confident about applying to pharmacy school, until I went online today and did some calculations only to find that my GPA is a 2.41. I feel like I have been punched in my stomach.
I graduated 2 years ago with my BS in Sociolgy - original track was Biochem/Exercise Science, so I've taken most of the prereqs. Had an AWFUL half year - failed spring and summer semester. Obviously obliterated my GPA, but I didn't remember it being THAT low.
I want to be a pharmacist. I love the field. I've been a pharm tech for almost 5 years and lead pharmacy tech for almost 2. I know this will help me, but how much?
I'm taking my PCAT in Sept and praying that I smoke it. I'm studying like a maniac. I got Bs and Cs in my sciences, but nothing amazing.
I need some to know that there is still hope. My pharmacy interns think I'll be fine and give me so much inspiration, but the truth is - its hard out there!
Did anyone else doubt themselves and find themselves pleasantly surprised? All stories and advice are welcome. Thanks!
