Im currently in my second semester at a Brookdale Community College in New Jersey. I am planning on getting my associate degree here and then just apply to some Pharmacy schools. Last semester I took General Chemistry I, College Algebra, English comp 1, and a History class. I got a 4.0 on all of them. Now I am currently taking bio 101, chem 102, trig, and english comp 102. I am starting to realize that I will not be able to get my associate degree in just 2 years. Plus every school has a different additional requirements. I would like to stay in state however it is impossible because there is only one pharmacy school in new jersey (rutgers). Does anybody have any advice for me?

Money is kind of an issue for me also so I prefer to not transfer to a 4 year uni if possible

I would transfer to a four year institution and finish out the prereqs. By the time, you finish with prereqs you can practically have a bachelors which will make you more competitive anyways. Also, just in case you don't get in to pharmacy school, at least then you have a degree under your belt. Just my two cents though. Good luck!
