Pre-Pharmacy courses transferable?

Is it truth that some of the prerequisites can be transferred or substituted for the pharmacy courses, so the professional years can be shortened? I always thought that when you're admitted to the pharmacy program, you’d have to start all over again; meaning if I already took one of the pharmacy courses (due to the Biology majors at my school), I’d have to take it again during the professional years?

Hope not confusing y’all!

there's many schools with many rules, so who knows what could be out there, but I very seriously doubt it.

not here you can't

even if you go to pharmacy school somewhere else for a year and then transfer in... you are again a p1

All schools are different.

There are some schools that allow you to test out of classes though.
So if you feel that your knowledge of the subject is strong enough to test out of it go for it.
