Do pharmacy schools take into account your grades in classes that are not the pre-reqs for the school? Next quarter I plan on taking chemistry and calculus but I don't know what else to take. I wanted to take easy classes and pump up my GPA but my advisor told me that pharmacy schools only care about your pre-req classes.

It depends on the school, some look at your overall gpa but most definitely weigh your pre-req gpa more. But ultimately, do well in both and you'll be fine, try to only take 2-3hard classes per semester and balance it with easier less demanding classes. Good luck!
