Hey everyone, this forum is filled to the brim with useful strategies and advice (mmmm brain food).
I currently reside in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. I am 22 years and have been searching for a field to pursue which fits my personality and after having considered many options I am relatively sure (how's that for an oxymoron) that I choose you! Pharmacy!
The problem is, I did not take any significant science in high school and NO biology. On top of that, I took Communications in Cegep (similar to College except in Quebec) and so ditched the whole world of Math, Biology, and Science. I graduated with my Communications Degree and applied for English Literature at Concordia University and after having taken it for two terms can't stand it anymore. I need more purpose in my life. And I am really starting to hunger for knowledge in the sciences.
I am now out of University and researching pharmacy. I think the first steps are the hardest so I am reaching out for any advice on where to turn now.
1. Should I contact my University to try and apply for a more scientific Undergraduate program?
2. If so, don't I need better prerequisites than the ones I have right now (ie Communications degree and no biology experience).
I want to build a solid foundation in my scientific knowledge and I want to attack any new course head on to stand out amongst the crowd. I am tired of living in mediocrity and I know I have what it takes to improve my situation. Shmanks SDN
