I have a AS from a community college in Computer Science with the GPA of 3.7.
I am going to finish my BS in Computer Science from SUNY with the GPA of about 3.0
Don't really want to work in the IT area anymore, so I think about keep going for a job in Pharmacy. That mean I have to take the pre-require courses now.
My SUNY doesn't offer any course in bio, chemic,etc. so I have to take them at a different school.
My question is:
When I apply for Pharmacy school, where I don't need to have BS degree, telling them that I had a BS in Computer Science with that GPA would help or hurt me?
Thanks,

You must tell them about ANY previous coursework, even if it's not pharmacy-based. Any degrees fall under this category. Not doing so is grounds for dismissal if the school were to find out, and may show up on a background check anyway. Therefore, it is irrelevant whether it helps or hurts you, to answer your last question.

Good luck on applying!👍
