I am 22 years old and I am currently finishing off the CLS degree. I am not sure if I should do my clinicals or go back and correct some of my grades. I am Canadian and I wanna go to a pharmacy school in the US. That being said, do you guys think that I should retake all the courses I got B or lower or just courses I got a C+ and lower in? Also do you guys know if pharmacy schools average my retake of courses with my first grade or take the more updated mark. Lastly, my cGPA is 3.2 and my science GPA is 3.07. Do you guys think I have a chance at all? And is anyone here from WSU pharmacy program? Cause thats my top choice for pharmacy school.

it's up to YOU 🙂

I am Canadian and I wanna go to a pharmacy school in the US.

hmm... i'm not sure how canadians go about doing it in america[admissions process]. so, i'd recommend you calling teresa woolverton[admissions WSU/ (509) 335-2356], and ask her about it. although in the mean time... here's a link for a list of awhole bunch of requirements upon attending WSUCoP: http://www.pharmcas.org/collegesschools/schoolWSUpage.htm hope this helps 😉

That being said, do you guys think that I should retake all the courses I got B or lower or just courses I got a C+ and lower in?

again... it's up to YOU really[insecure]. some will say to retake ALL or just the c+s AND lower ones to be exact. but, i've read a ton of threads here and i've heard people as low as 2.6~2.7 GPAs getting accepted. so, you never know as there's ALOT of other things that adcoms DO consider. ooh like your bachelors for one orrr SOON to be, PCAT score, personal statement, LORs, ECs and such. so, i wouldn't sweat it. of course! we ALL want straight a's or equivalent to. but, it is what it is. besides! i've also heard people with 3.6+ GPAs AND 90s on their PCAT and STILL didn't get accepted. but, anyway...

Also do you guys know if pharmacy schools average my retake of courses with my first grade or take the more updated mark.

it's open for dicussion as i'm pretty sure there are others here with different views about it. but, in my opinion. different adcoms have different pet peeves so you never know. but, so far i've heard mix reviews with some saying that they'll take the more updated mark and some saying they'll weigh out the two and take the medium. but,

Lastly, my cGPA is 3.2 and my science GPA is 3.07. Do you guys think I have a chance at all?

like i said... there are people getting accepted with 2.6~2.7 GPAs. so why NOT eh? 👍😀👍

And is anyone here from WSU pharmacy program? Cause thats my top choice for pharmacy school.

well, either they're just being IGNORANT!!! you know, the whole "canada vs america BULL****!!!" or there's REALLY nobody from WSU here for the moment. have you checked the WSU thread yet??? anyway... SORRY i could not be of much assistance. but, i hope things work out for the better and best of luck! to YOU nonetheless...
