Hi everyone! I will soon be a senior at my university but I have a 2.7 GPA 🙁 There have been various reasons for this, but the past is the past. Do I have any hope of getting into a good pharm program and if so what steps do I need to take?

whatever it takes to get that gpa to a 3.0 (retake classes?), and make yourself competitive with extracurriculars, research, or one hell of a personal statement.

I wouldnt give up. You need to give us more info. Have you taken the pcat, and if so how did you do? What was your major? etc...

Hey guys, so I havent taken the PCAT. My major is neuroscience. What other information do you guys need 🙂

A friend of mine told me to work as a pharm tech while Im retaking classes after graduation. Is that a good idea? What else should I do?

1) Retake pre-req. courses lower than B.
2)Work as Pharm. Tech. and get to know the pharmacists, so that they can write you a good LoR.
3)Ace the PCAT.
4)????
5)150k in debt....

is it fine if i retake courses at community college after graduation?

That depends on the school. Some only accept certain pre-reqs from universities. You can always call the schools and ask.
