I am an 18-year-old who is currently applying for a few pharmacy schools in Texas (UT Austin, Texas A&M, UHouston, and Texas Tech). I'm so nervous about admissions and was wondering if I should apply for more schools in case I got denied. Here are my stats:
- I'm graduating with my Bachelor of Science in Biology next summer
- My Science GPA is 3.800, Math GPA is 4.0, Overall GPA is 3.8971
- My PCAT score is 52nd percentile in Biology, 92nd in Chemistry, 30th in Reading, 96th in Math, and 78th Composite (it's my first PCAT attempt, English is not my native language so my reading score is super low)
- I work two part-time jobs while going to college (one is as a tutor, the other one as a waiter)
- I join a few clubs and organizations in college (but only a few of them is science-related)
- I also did a few extracurricular activities, community services, and receive dozens of scholarships
- I also plan to take PTCB (Pharmacy Tech License Exam) soon too but I don't think it'll be on time.
Do you think I have a shot in getting into one of the schools I listed above because I think I lack a lot of pharmacy experiences and my PCAT reading score is low too? Do you think I should apply to more schools? Should I retake my PCAT? All answers are appreciated!
