I usually hear this a lot from my friends regarding classes you need to take for pharmacy school.
1) If you take pre-req courses from community college, you are making yourself less competitive because admissions know that classes are "easier"
2) It is better to take pre-req courses in a university if you are a university student.
3) It is not recommended to take science pre-req courses from community colleges.
I was planning to take Biochem and Ecology from a community college during the summer to save some tuition money since I don't really receive grants or loans.
But now I'm a little skeptical to take it because of the negative things that I hear about community colleges... is this really true?
If I take around 1~2 classes at community college would pharmacy school really "look down" on it?
