i think u have 2 improve your math b/c you have to do pharmacy calculations eg: TPN, etc. They want to see that you can do basic math

 

[Murphy005]

yea, i'm laughing along with you. (on the inside, i think)

i realize my numbers are not that bad. i would call them average? it's just that math score that's really making me nervous. will that severely hold me back? (in all seriousness)

Have you looked at Chicago State University since you're looking at two schools in the Chicago area? CSU has a new pharmacy department that I'm sure you can get into.

Apply to MWU-ccp early. People this year were accepted with lower stats than you. If you can get an interview early (I am assuming you are a Illinois resident), you are almost a sure shot to get in (also assuming that you have at least some ecs and good recs). As for Chicago State, dont do it, total ****hole, your stats are better than that.

Can you explain please?

Haha, most pre-pharmacy students struggle in math and reading/verbal. Yet, you seem to strive in these (well, only in reading/verbal); what's your secret? 🙂
