Hi guys, I am currently a rising junior at Centre College in KY (#1 college in KY and #40 liberal arts college in the nation), and am really interested in pursuing a career in clinical pharmacy.
My stats are as follows:
major/minor: French, Biology
languages: English,Spanish, proficient French
ethnicity: hispanic (native born), first generation immigrant
current cumulative GPA: 3.3
science GPA: 3.1 (mostly B+ and A's in all math and sciences, but had a rough first semester and got a C+ in bio 110)
extra curricular activities/experiences: 1 year working as a licensed pharmacy technician at CVS, couple of leadership positions in clubs, cheerleading, study abroad in France program, research, some shadowing
i hope to score in the 80-90th percentile on PCAT to compensate for GPA
can get good LORs from pharmacists and professors

I hope to get out of kentucky and move to the West Coast, looking at schools in CA (USC, UCSF) or even the East Coast (NY, Maryland); I know I am an oddball because of my major choice (but that is the beauty of liberal arts colleges), I truly have a passion for languages and hope to be able to use that as a pharmacist especially in a larger city setting.

Please give any advice!
