What if the prepharm program you are attended does not require you to take certain prereqs such as LIU? Are there any pharmacy schools in the US that overlook this requirement? thanks in advance.
 
You're responsible for fulfilling all of the pre requisites required by each school you're applying to.

Dude. let me hook you up with the inside story...

Your undergraduate degree requirements are gonna be different from your pre-reqs. This question can be answered so easily by just doing a quick google search. seriously. even though a class is not required by your school, if it is a pre req, you need to pay and take the missing class to get it fulfilled. Go to each school's website, see what they require, and look at what you have taken, and see if you are missing anything, if you are, then take the class. Different pharm schools have different pre-reqs.

the lack of answers on this thread shows how easily OP could have found these answers....
 
Just because you're attending a "pre-pharmacy program" doesn't mean that any school in the country will recognize that fact and adjust their expectations for prerequisite coursework accordingly. You have a responsibility to research the necessary prerequisite courses for each and every school you are interested in attending, and to make sure that you include that coursework in your studies, regardless of whether or not it's required for completion of your "pre-pharmacy program".

Gosh, you guys can cool your little heads down! I ask because I have heard that some schools have some exceptions and I have also read that you can submit your completed coursework to each college/university you would like to attend for review to see if you still fulfill their requirements.

I would first check to see if the Universities you are interested in have list of courses you can take At YOUR Univrsity to satisfy their admission requirement. Pharmacy programs will have such list for most of the US schools on their website.
If you believe some of the course you have taken that are not on that list but still satisfy what the school looks for, then you should ask the Pharmacy program. I have done that for Philosophy and writing requirements. They might ask you to send syllabus though.
