Don't mind bb's smartass response, you will get in if you can improve your grades slightly and do well on the pcat. I am sorry there are some members on SDN that can't be serious.

I'm so glad that I will have the opportunity to take banana's advice of time apart.....

seeing as how you're going to spend an eternity in hell...

i think that should be long enough


And I'm sorry to the OP. I didn't know what you wanted to hear... do you like pharmacy? do you feel you will be fulfilled by it?

My God, I have no idea what the hell was up with the other two, but personally, I think your experience and Bachelors is going to make all the difference. I did have an admissions counselor at UIC tell me that that PCAT is the leveling field for all new pharmacy hopefuls. Do your best on that... by that I mean, start studying NOW. Get those grades up, too, if you still have pre-pharm classes to take.

I wish you the best of luck.

I think if you did pretty well on the PCAT, you'd really have nothing to worry about (because even though your GPA is a bit low your background sounds solid). I don't know what school you're applying to so I can't say much otherwise, but I wouldn't stress too badly.
 
You both need to stop fighting and grow up. You both obviously have strong feelings and no name calling or debates is going to make either of you change your minds. So just accept it and move on. With that aside, I think talk of hell, Jesus, religion needs to be reserved for non-SDN websites. This is a pharmacy forum...not a religion forum.
