so right now I need someone advices on what I should do next. I'm a Junior with a GPA around 3.3 with a PCAT of 60. For this semester I'm taken biochem, human anatomy, and retaken gen chem, with an art class, while doing various clubs and volunteer during the summer as a pharm tech. I just need to know what I need to do this coming year in order for me to get into pharm. school because I have heard from pharmacy students that people who get 4.0 GPA who are not guarantee to get in pharm school, this is why it is scaring me because I really think I don't have any chance in getting in any pharmacy school at all. 🙁

You didn't offer a lot of information about your situation. It's hard to give you specific advice without knowing where you're planning to apply, how many times you've taken the PCAT, and why you're retaking general chem.

I have only taking one time for the PCAT and I will take the PCAT in January again, and the reason why I retaking general chem is because I got a C during my freshman year.

I think it's a waste of time (and money) to retake general chemistry if you passed. No, a C is not a pretty grade but plenty of people have been admitted to pharmacy school with Cs. Retakes should be reserved for failing grades unless you're planning to apply for the few schools that recalculate GPAs.

Study for and retake the PCAT.
