Since I'am applying to VCU pharmacy school this summer,I was wondering if it would be beneficial to me to take recommended classes, as in cell bio, genetics for the fall or should I just take classes that pertains to my major. I don't really see how cell bio or genetics will help me in any way.....



"Due to the importance of a strong biomedical science foundation for success in the Doctor of Pharmacy degree program, some or all of the courses listed below are recommended for students enrolling in the Fall of 2008."
3 SH Genetics or Molecular Biology 3 SH Immunology 3 SH Cell Biology
 
You have a major that those classes won't count for?
 
If you're a business major, I'm assuming you have none of the prereqs for pharm school and are applying to a 6 year program? If this is the case, then you will most likely need some of those classes during your prereq studies anyways. I guess personally, I wouldn't just go out of your way and take those type of classes unless you're accepted....I mean they are not terribly easy classes especially if you have no background.

I'm a business major
