One more question: Is it a complete waste of time to apply to schools where you are missing one or two pre-requisites or will they take other schools' pre-pharmacy programs?
You need to check with the schools themselves. When the AACP website is up and running, you can check on there to see what the schools actualy require. There is a link to a large documents that lists schools alphabetically, and inside each school near the section that describes pre-reqs, it will say whether or not everything needs to be completed before application or before matriculation. If it's before application, then you've got to have everything done much earlier. If it's before matriculation, then ou have up until the day classes start to get those pre-reqs completed.
Of course, schools are likely to accept people who are missing pre-reqs only if it looks like the prereqs can (and will) be completed before matriculation. If you're missing one or two science classes and you're scheduled to take one in the Spring semester and the other in the summer, that's a reasonable expectation. But if you're missing two lab sciences, A&P, calculus, and two humanities, that's a little tougher to do in that time and the pharmacy school might be a little leery.
Check with your prospective school If the AACP website doesn't come back up soon, you can go to the actual school's website, or contact someone at the actual school.... rater than ask people in here who really have no vested interest in getting you into pharmacy school.
