Hi,
I have been fortunate to get accepted into 4 pharmacy schools so far. My top choices are two schools. One school is an accelerated pharmD program the other is naturally a 0+6 program where im a transfer student in the second year(a total of 5 years). Im worried because it has been seven/eight years since i took my last chemistry course and I didnt do great on my chemistry courses back then. Here are my grades for chemistry
G chem1 B
G chem2 C
O chem1 A
O chem2 B
I applied specifically to schools that didnt require the PCAT so i didnt have the chance to review any of the material in the previously discussed courses. My options are:
1) Take the 5 year program and retake the chemistries in my first year along with some other prerequisites.
2) take the 4 lecture based chemistry courses this summer as a review and join the accelerated pharmD program this fall. But this leaves out the labs which im not sure how useful they are in pharmacy school.
Which do you think is the best option and what is your reasoning?
Thanks
