Hi
I am currently a sophomore in college. I am already admitted into Midwestern University's direct acceptance program for the college of pharmacy, but due to cost, I hope to apply to the UIC College of Pharmacy after my third year instead.
My overall GPA is a 3.6 and my science GPA is 3.4, but I am taking a majority of my science courses these next two years, so I hope to increase that to at least a 3.5. I work as a pharmacy technician at Walgreens and volunteer at Northwestern Memorial Hospital. I am a part of a pre-pharmacy club and American Red Cross.
What else can I do to increase my chances of getting accepted/make my application stand out? Is it worth it to take the chance of dropping out of the direct program at Midwestern?
