Hey, so I want to apply to University of Baltimore Pharmacy School this year for fall of 2013 but I just took my Pcats recently and I didn't do so great and I know that UMB looks at 70 or above Pcats most of the time. I just want some opinions on whether I should bother applying with my stats or if I should just focus on other schools.
My stats:
GPA: 3.95
Science GPA: 4.0
Pcat: 40 %
Experience: Internship at Walgreens Pharmacy for a summer, recently got a job at a pharmacy where they train you to become a Pharm Tech, Tutoring
Volunteer: I do volunteer every summer at my local nursing home since middle school and I do community service for my school club
Extra-Cir.: Involved in about 4 clubs, 2 science ones and the others are for community service and/or fun......I plan on joining more this semester to put on my application though I haven't had a leadership position.....does that hurt me?
LOR: I have atleast 3 teachers that love me and would write me great recommendations
So, what do you guys think? Is that Pcat score gonna ruin any chance for me? I don't know how much emphasis UMB puts on the scores but I'm guessing it's alot since they look at high scores. Do I have enough Extra-Cir and experience to even be considered competitive? I just need some advice because I'm really nervous that I might not have a shot and I really want to go to this school
