Hello all-
After graduating in 2003 with a BA in Journalism, I've now decided to try to go back to pharmacy school! It's been the hardest decision in my life so far...due to a really great job that I have now (marketing/advertising job). It's just not what I want to do forever.
Anyway, with the Journalism degree, there was not much math and science involved with my undergrad. So I'm enrolling this summer to get started on my prerequisites to even be considered for pharm school. I have to take 2 semesters of general chem, 2 semesters of organic, gen bio, anatomy, physics, calculus, micro and probably a few more. I'm getting in the gen chems and bio this summer, and then starting with organic, calc, physics and anatomy in the fall. I'm also hoping to take the PCAT in October and again in January. My question for everyone...is this even possible?? It would be encouraging to know that others have been down a similar road and are getting accepted! Due to the late start, I really don't want to have to take two years to get accepted, so my goal is getting into pharm school 2007. Anyone else in this same boat??
