Your Freshmen Schedule
Started by Insomniac12
FRESHMAN
fall semester- 19 credits (insane!)
winter semester- 18 credits
summer- 1 class (5 credits)
SOPHOMORE
fall semester- 18 credits (included in that is organic chemistry I, which basically left me with no life)
winter semester- 15 credits- this is my current semester, and it's finally a light enough load that I'm able to have a little bit of a social life.
You only have to take this rough of a schedule if you take a two-year pre-pharm track. If you want to do it in 3 or 4 years, you can take lighter class loads, depending on the program you want to get into.

[And yes I'm leaving w/out a degree! Before this Spring semester of taking random classes, I would have still been a semester early to graduate (aka the Fall my senior year) but oh well...!]

I've really wanted to go to ut-austin, I just found out their course requirements.

yeah I go to UT now...and our prereqs are not as hard as other pharm schools. The thing is, it's not all about GPA here... you have to be a well-rounded person. So, get a good GPA, PCAT, and be active in organizations while getting some pharmacy experience and you should be fine 🙂
I'm still trying to figure it all out on that site.. one course that stood out to me was microbiology, at the uni. I'm attending this fall, we don't need a microbiology course
