Hi im a highschool senior and i have a slight problem. Over the summer spending time with a pharmacist made me 100% sure that i wanted to be a pharmacist. But during my 3 years in highschool i goofed off in science class and basically got B's and C's. I really wanna do a pre-pharmacy route. Im planning to apply to MA college of pharmacy. What should i do from here? are my chances of getting into pre-pharm zero? should i go to a school that offers pre-pharm and try to transfer my 2nd or 3rd year? or could i get into a school with a realtivly easy pre-pharm acceptance and work my way up? plz any info would be appreciated im in a really confused place right now.
 
Keep in mind you don't have to go to a school with a pre-pharm major.


Biotechnology, Biochemisty, and a few others are also great majors that really tie in with pharmacy.


Don't worry about your high school grades. They don't really matter. Just get into a college (and hopefully you can get into the one you want). Do worry about your college grades. Take your first quarter/semester very seriously. College is what counts.
