MCPHS vs. USciences

Pre-Pharmacy & Pharmacy School
1

I know that there are alot of people who have this same question posted on this website, but they all seem outdated. I was recently accepted into both USciences and MCPHS for the 0-6 Pharm D program. I got 10,000 annually from USciences and 7,000 annually from MCPHS. Between these two schools, is one of them “easier” than the other in regards to a higher graduating rate.

Money isn’t really a issue for me, as well as traveling out of state. I would however like to be able, in the next six years, pass and become a Pharmacist.

Does anyone else know? I am currently undergoing this debate myself too.

You shouldn’t be worried about “easier”- you need to look at each school’s NABPLEX first time pass rate. “Easy” will mean nothing if you can’t pass the NABPLEX and there are definitely differences in school performance on that test.

Thanks for the link @Madison85‌. It helps me get a good idea of things. I don’t see USciences on there though. Am I not looking in the right spot?

EDIT: Never mind it was under Philadelphia College of Pharmacy. Thank you again!

I’m a sophomore in high school in NJ and was wondering what my chances are for Rutgers and university of the sciences 0-6 programs.

I was also curious if senior year counts with what classes I’m taking because I will take a good amount of AP classes that year as well as physics reg, which Rutgers recommends to take. I want to make sure they look at senior year too since I’ll take many science AP classes that year.

Also, I’ll be taking the new 1600 pt SAT, and was wondering about what score will be needed for admission to rutgers and USP. I have very smart kids in HS so is class rank very important?
