New to the forums... so "HELLO"
So, I'm on this crusade to make this incredible career change in my life. I've been a Landscape Architect for the past 4 or so years and really have little bio/sci background in my undergrad B.S. in Landscape Architecture.
Right now it's Fall of 2008 and I have little to none prerequisites required for pharmacy school. I've created a spreadsheet for the prerequisites needed for me to get into pharmacy school by Fall 2010. This approximately gives me 1.5 years or 5 semesters (including 2 summer sememsters) to complete all of the classes below.
I am only looking to get into UOP, Touro (CA), and Northstate (sacramento).
Calculus I
Chem I & II
O.Chem I & II
Biology I & II
Physics I
Biochem or MCB I
MicroBiology I
Anatomy/Physiology joint class I
English Composition II
Public Speaking- completed in Community College
Economics- completed in Community College and AP Test
Psychology- completed with a "B" in undergrad... want to retake if possible
English Composition 1- completed in undergrad
If I finish all of these pre-reqs I should be covered for all 3 colleges I am applying to.
1)Now do you think that completing all of these classes in such a short amount of time is possible?
2) Also, I understand applications are due usually about a year before admissions so due to pre-reqs within these classes, (Chem1-->Chem2-->O.Chem1) I will taking O.Chem in the fall of 2009. I might not have it finished in time before applications are due. Will this drastically affect my application?? I am worried that I will have too many classes in progress, but I am fully committed to completing and finishing these classes with high grades.
*I've attached a rough draft of my excel speadsheet for any interested.
