Major: B.S. Chemistry
Cum GPA: 3.55
Science/Math GPA: 3.59
PCAT: Taking in September
Work Experience: 1.5 years laboratory assistant, 2 years laboratory technician, will have 6 months experience of pharmacy technician (certified) at Walgreens once I apply
Community: 2 years American Red Cross volunteer, 6 years Humane Society volunteer, 6 months volunteer as laboratory assistant

I currently already have professors/pharmacists who have promised/writing letters of recommendations, and will be compiling necessary forms and documents (transcripts, personal essay, etc) start of June in preparation for July when PharmCAS opens up. Planning to apply to all the pharmacy schools in Texas with UT Austin as top priority.

Only problem I can anticipate is, is there an issue if I'm taking pre-reqs like Genetics while I'm applying for Pharm schools? I will be finishing all the prereqs definitely before enrollment in Fall of 2015.

So how do you far my chances and also what I can still do better to improve my odds. Thanks!

As long as you don't fall asleep during the PCAT, pick a school, congrats on being accepted. Schools don't reject someone with a chem degree, ever, especially with a 3.5+. Then just finish up the other prereqs.

Thanks for the reply! I definitely will not be taking PCAT Prep lightly.
