rutgers pharmacy

<p>hello. i am currently a junior in tenafly (nj).
i really want to get into rutgers pharmacy program, which i heard, is hard to get into.</p>

<p>I took sat this jan. and scores were lower than i expected... especially writing. I got 620 Verbal, 780 math, 590 writing.</p>

<p>I know i will be able to raise my verbal by at least 30 points and writing by at least 100 over the summer. I am planning to take classes + study VERY hard since it's my last chance to raise my score.</p>

<p>I took sat 2c in june of my sophomore year. i got 770, and i am planning to retake it to get 800.
I also took sat chem. and got 780.
i am planning to retake 2c and take bio, i should do well on both of them since i am taking ap bio right now. </p>

<p>i don't know my gpa in 4.0 scale, but i have 3.95 gpa for last 5 semesters in my school scale. U subtract .3 if it's -, and add .3 if it's plus. So, 4.3 would be A+ and 4 would be A, 3.7 would be a-, 3.3 would be b+ and so on. u get .5 more if the class is an honor or ap. my class is highly competitive, and with my gpa, i should land about top 15%. </p>

<p>My gpa never dropped each semester. It constantly went up. I am volunteering in pharmacy in englewood hospital, and hoping to work as pharmacy techinician soon. </p>

<p>I honestly has no idea what my chances are applying to rutgers pharmacy.</p>

<p>Rutgers admission's office doesn't seem to have mean scores and ot her data jus for pharmacy. They only have the combined ones. </p>

<p>I would like to know more about rutgers pharmacy.
IT would be great if u guys could tell me more about rutgers pharmacy.
and also things that i could do to improve my chances of getting in.
Thank you.</p>

<p>They rank all the students in admissions by GPA and SAT, so work on your SAT. Generally, I would say a 1400+ would be great if you are trying to get into the pharmacy school. Possibly have some volunteering or Ec's concentrated around pharmacy and have good recs. The pharm tech will look great. Keep up the good work, I say you have a good chance.</p>
