Is it possible to be a good pharmacist if you hate math? I love Chemistry but I really hate math...it really doesn't interest me yet I always manage to pull of a B.😕

As long as you realize it is a necessary evil and are able to do the calcs, you can do whatever you want. If you go retail, most of the calcs are fairly simple. Doing calcs for dosage due to renal/hepatic impairment may be a little more difficult, but definitely still doable, even if you hate math.

I hate math too, I wouldn't sweat it, I managed to pass Calc 1 and 2 on the first tries

the math isn't too difficult in pharm school.
