A 3.38 is a fine GPA. Many people get into pharmacy school with GPAs lower than that. What schools did you apply to?
Many students do get accepted with a GPA in that range. You may not get into every school you apply to, but you have a decent shot at getting into a school if you apply to more than just a couple. Research your schools' acceptance statistics. There are some good links on this topic in the pre-pharmacy FAQ. Don't avoid applying to any school you really want to go to because of your GPA.

I got in with a 3.27. They know GPA is general not a particularly absolute indicator of intelligence or potential, so they do not rely solely on it.
