Is regulatory pharmaceuticals worth pursuing?
Hi Lurker! I saw your thread here and I wanted to know if you can help me since you may be a pharmacist by now. I’m accepted to Rutgers School of Arts and Sciences and I’m planning to transfer to the pharmacy school in 2 years after completing my prerequisites. I’m going to be a freshman this fall 2016 and I have 17 credits. I am taking Extended General Chemistry( equivalent to General Chemistry 161), basic composition, general psychology, middle eastern studies, and Precalculus. Since I did not do well in my placement exams, I am placed into basic composition and Precalculus. This would cause a delay for me to transfer after 2 years but I’m planning to take summer and winter courses. People are telling me that it’s too much but I want to transfer to the pharmacy school. In high school, I did not get accepted to the Rutgers Pharmacy school due to my SAT score of 1600 and a good GPA of 3.6/4.0. Do you think pharmacy is worth it? I know that the pharmacy school accept very low transfer students but you never know I can be one of them. Thank you.
