Hello all,
I am done with all prereqs pretty much with the exception of cell and anatomy.The schools I am applying to do not even reqire these.So my school has a B.S in pharmaceutical science.Should pursue this since I am 2 years in to getting this degree while I wait to get in to the pharmd programm in 2007.Can I practice with the B.s.I just do not want to waste time doing Bio or chem as a major is it is not entirely pharmacy relate.What do you guys know about this.

Pharmaceutical Science is concerned with product formulation and dosage form development. Pharmaceutical Scientists are NOT Pharmacists.

Yes, if someone has a B.S. in Pharmaceutical Sciences they will have to attend "pharmacy school" in order to get a Pharm.D.
