oh yeah, i forgot to say this too,
Stop asking questions like "will i get in with these stats",
Everyone should know by now that admissions to pharmacy schools is RANDOM, it not only depends on your stats, but also what kind of person you are. Stats arent everything.
If you have a 3.8 g.p.a but are a nerd and dont know how to talk, chances are you wont get in.

your post was out of line. first of all, many people come to this forum seeking support and encouragement. most of the time, this is what they find--along with a dose of reality and sometimes harsh truth. this forum is a great resource for everyone.
SECONDLY, a quick search of your posts finds that YOU posted a question regarding how many people got into which schools with a particular GPA range, which schools have rolling admissions, when you should apply, etc--all topics that have been covered many times. there was nothing wrong with asking for responses..but this post in which you criticize those who do the same is wrong.

Burn!!!!!

I do think more people should make use of the FAQ and the search function.

true but sometimes topics found on there are out-of-date, such as the stats of those entering 2-3 years ago are differrent from now, etc.
Use the search Luke... use the search!!!
I agree that the FAQ can be out of date sometimes... The best resource is the search function (an excellent example was posted previously by Haley).
Using this forum - I found the school I wanted to go to, learned the best ways to get in, and matriculated - all by utilizing the search function.
As to the OP's distress - each forum has its own temperment - Pre-pharm is open to all questions, and is incredibly positive. If you were hoping for a more kill-or-be-killed type of forum (one where only certain questions are allowed) - you should check out the MD forums.
Here its team work and camaraderie - politely remind those posting to use the search...
Did I mention use the search???
