Pre-Pharmacy

 

Preparation for Pharmacy School

What is the suggested academic major to follow to become a pharmacist? A better question to ask is “what are you most interested in studying”? With your advisor’s assistance you can design a program that meets the requirements to enter pharmacy school. Students that have developed excellent writing and speaking skills, possess analytic and synthetic thinking ability, understand the interpersonal aspects of medicine, and are enthusiastic life-long learners are desired by most pharmacy schools. The choice of academic major does not necessarily determine your success in being accepted to pharmacy school.
