Im currently thinkin about getting a Bachelors in Respitory Therapy, but im wondering if Pharm school will accept it. I will have all my prerequisites done, but i wanna start making money soo since i have financial obligations, and RT would help me do that and get a bachelors degree, but will pharm school take it as a bachelors degree or not, that is the question.... also if i get my Bachelors in RT, i will be applying to both PA school and Pharm so i have a back up plan in case..
 
It doesn't really look good when you apply to both PA and Pharm schools. It shows that you are not passionate about the career that you are choosing. As for a bachelors in RT, it doesn't really matter if you have a degree or not. A lot of students apply in their second year of college before getting a degree. There are also people that switch careers, years after graduating and decide to pursue pharmacy. So working in RT should not be a problem. Just make sure you have pharmacy experience. Like I said again, applying to PA and Pharm school does not show your commitment and passion for those fields. The addmission comittee might take that factor for admission...if you tell them.

The admission committee likely won't know they are applying for PA programs.
