Ok so I’m an African American High School student who’s a Junior in High School and I want to apply an accelerated Pharmacy at University of the Pacific and I’m going for the five year program. So far this is what I’ve got:
GPA: Weighted 4.6/ Unweighted 3.9(got a B in Programming 2 as a freshman)
Rank: (I’m one of the top 3, it’s iffy because i’m not a senior yet, but i’m either 1st, 2nd, or 3rd)
SAT Biology Subject Test : 750
PSAT: 202
Mock Trial: 3 years
Interact Club: 3 years
Helping Hands: 2 years
National Honor Society: 3 years
Volunteer at local Hospital
Reading for the visually impaired
I was head of a community newsletter for a little but it may not be too important
Wrestling: 1 year
AP Classes I’ve taken:
AP European History: 4
AP Computer Science: didn’t take AP test
AP Classes i’m taking:
AP Calculus AB
AP US History
AP Human Geography
AP Language and Composition
AP Art History
AP Physics 1

P.S. Will the fact that i’m African American help me out with my chances of getting in at all?

Hi, I got into the 5-year pre-pharm program so I think I can help :slight_smile:
Honestly, I think you are overqualified and think that you should do fine! I don’t remember the requirement but you should check online, but as long as you maintain your high GPA, they will definitely get you the 5-year program :slight_smile: Just remember that the app for pre-pharm is due in November (not January!) and it is really simple; just a really simple personal statement paragraph. Emphasis on the paragraph (it’s not long). Good luck!

@eunjungie Hey I know it’s been a while haha, but do you think I have a good chance of getting in to the Accelerated Dentistry program with my stats?

Definitely. I had a 3.8uw, 4.15w, 2040 SAT. Applied past the deadline and still got into their accelerated 2+3 dental program.
