<p>Hi all.</p>
<p>I am in major need of advice due to my circumstances. </p>
<p>I use to be a student at UC Berkeley but due to my lack of focus, I was dismissed from the University with a GPA of 1.3. I was taking classes in the hopes of being a Computer Engineer, but I was hopelessly unprepared for those classes and thus was kicked from the University after 2 semesters and 2 summer sessions. Being kicked from the University began a long period of depression and anxiety however, due to family concerns, I enrolled in a city college. I spent two years taking classes to increase my GPA, however due to my depression and anxiety, I did not raise my GPA to the point where it needed to be. At this point in time, it is a 2.99 (I passed every single class I took with a C or above but with more Cs than I would have liked to have received). </p>
<p>The blame for my actions rests with me and I understand this but I am at a complete loss as to how I am to approach my current predicament. Due to family problems, I moved back to SoCal, closer to my parents and am enrolling in a city college here. After my incident at UC Berkeley, I decided that Computer engineering was not the path for me. I spent time thinking and contemplating my strengths and weaknesses and have decided to major in (B.S) chemistry and then hopefully apply to a pharmacy school. So the few questions I have, pertaining to my problems are:</p>
<ol>
<li>What are my chances for transfer to a Cal State?</li>
<li>Does it matter if I am attempting to transfer to a Cal State with transcripts from multiple city colleges/ will the classes I took at the colleges be transferable? </li>
<li>I have too many units (counting the ones that I received from UC Berkeley (33.5) and the city college. In terms of transfer, only a certain amount of units are allowed. (If I calculated correctly, I have over 100 units taken) What do I do in my situation, will all of my units.</li>
</ol>
<p>Other concerns I have but the first three are most pressing at the current time. </p>
<ol>
<li>What should I do to prepare for pharmacy school?</li>
<li>If I do not get into pharmacy school, what are other options for a chemistry major?</li>
<li>Would it be a good idea to double major in something else, along with chemistry?</li>
</ol>
<p>I understand that I have ruined many opportunities for myself but I am attempting to work past that and keep moving forward, despite my losses. At this point, my family has lost all hope in me and calls me an embarrassment (they have said it to my face) to the family. I want to prove to them that I am still the same, hard-working family member they raised me to be and show them that I can still be the successful person they want me to be but I just need a little push in the right direction. </p>
<p>Any advice is appreciated. If any clarification is needed, please ask and I will do my best to provide the answer. I'm just a very confused individual right now and I need advice. Thank you for your time.</p>
