Hello, thank you for reading this post.

I am JUST starting to take all admission required courses for the pharmacy schools... It's just that every pharmacy school requires something different and I cannot schedule my classes based on just one school, because it does not satisfy requirements others. If I try to take every course required, that will take me forever to finish! (I do hope to apply to at least 5 schools)

Can someone please help me and tell me what courses you are taking as undergrad in order to fulfill usual required course list?

I understand below show absolutely required science related courses,

Calculus I, II
Biology (2 sem) with Lab
Gen Chem I, II with Lab
Organic Chem (2 sem) with Lab
Physics with Lab

Can I finish this and apply? How many and what courses are you taking to get ready?

Thank you advance, really appreciate it.

look at the schools in which you are wanting to apply to. They have a list of required courses needed and a list of courses that are suggested. Also, go talk to your counselor they will tell you...

On the pharmapplicants site (and I think he got it from another site) there is a pdf chart that shows you the different schools, whether or not they use PharmCAS, and their pre-reqs.

Edit: Here's the URL

It's invaluable if you want to take a look at the big picture.

Thank you for your replies. Chart will be VERY helpful. Really appreciate it. 😍

I will take your advices and take courses I wrote down first- then take rest of different courses later on in the last one year.

I'm pretty sure SUNY Buffalo requires Calc 2. Or else I took it for nothing. Sweet, sweet integrals.

Depends on if you have a bachelor's degree or not. Required if not, waived if entering with a bachelor's. I hated calc 2 at UB worst professor I ever had in any class at any level. This includes the class that I was in where the professor was replaced mid semester because of ineptitude. The dean of the school made the dean of the department finish teaching the class. I learned calc 2 off of youtube 🙁

I learned organic on youtube! 🙄

I would be getting my bachelor's degree just to avoid Calc 2. Ugh.

I will have my bachelor's degree so it would have gotten waived....unfortunately I needed calc 2 in order to get my bachelor's. Quoting the Big Bang Theory: "I just can't get a break" 😛
