What matters most Prereq GPA or cumulative?

I am applying and just had my interview on April 15 for UNM COP. I did well on my prereqs with a 3.48 and no Ws or Cs in any of them however I had one year where my grades had slipped in other courses some science. I felt like the interview went well and have my degree just not sure how much it is going to affect me because it was my last year before getting my degree and so it shows a decline. If anybody has any insight as to the admissions I would be happy to hear. I went back for my prereqs and am really determined to do pharmacy. Good luck to the rest of you who are eagerly waiting.

I would think pre-reqs matter more than cummulative GPA as long as your cummulative isn't like F's and D's, etc. So with a decent cummulative and really good pre-req GPA, you're in good shape. Goodluck

Getting an interview is the first thing that states that you're qualified acedemically...so I wouldnl't really worry about the grades; however, the thing to think about is ur performance during your interview...that's more of the determining factor at this point in the process.
