The school I want to apply to does not require A&P as part of their pre-reqs. I'd like to apply a year from now for 2014 admission. However, that would mean I would need to take my PCAT exam next summer.
I haven't taken Orgo yet, but I will be taking Orgo I this Spring. I could also take A&P I this coming Spring, but if the school I'm applying to doesn't require it, why bother? I should've been in Pharmacy school by now, but I changed my career path a few times and I don't want to put myself through anymore stress or delay my path into Pharmacy any longer than I have to.
Do you think it's necessary to take A&P or can I learn whatever is needed for the PCAT on my own? And will I be ok with only having taken Orgo I when I take the PCAT, or is Orgo II necessary as well?
Just so you know, by the time I take my PCAT (probably July 2013) these are the science/math-based classes I will have completed:
-Chem I
-Chem II
-Bio I
-Bio II
-Pre Calc
-Calculus
-Statistics
-Orgo I
-A&P I *if necessary*
