Prerequisites only or cumulative?

Do pharmacy schools look at your prerequisite GPA, cumulative, or both? So far my prereq. classes are going great but, there's this one class that is required by my current university (non-prereq.) and I am apparently doing bad in it, do you think this will effect me at? I actually don't think this class will hurt my cumulative much anyway since its only 1 credit hour, but I'm just curious.

Thanks guys

Depends on the school, you are interested in applying. Some schools look at just the pre-reqs while others look at both... 1 credit hr 😕 that wont even make a dent on your cumGPA. Define bad? failing?

As said above, it varies from school to school what is calculated. Call or check your school's website to see.

Example: Texas A&M calculates a cumulative GPA AND a pre-req GPA.
