I get so much different feedback from different people, that I'm just super confused. I need to speak with someone who is very familiar and knowledgeable about Pharmacy admissions so I can get a realistic answer.
I graduated in May 2006 with a biochemistry degree. My GPA is pretty low (3.11) and my science GPA (~2.7) is even lower. I've been doing research in a genetics lab since August and Im hoping to start volunteering in a pharmacy soon. I will be taking the Pharmacy Certification Test soon and the PCATs in June. In June I will also quit my job and take summer school courses in probably OChem and Calc to replace some of my formerly bad grades. I feel like I have solid Rec Letters from professors and employers.
With all of this said and done, where do I stand? Do I have a decent shot at getting into any pharmacy school at all? What can I do to make myself a better candidate besides score well on the PCAT and take classes?
