<p>you know how grad skool states that u have to have a B.S. or B.A. ... would a pharmD and mba be able to substitute that?</p>
<p>Yeah, I'm pretty sure that on the way to getting a PharmD you earn a BS/BA in something (chemistry?, Biology?). I know that some schools have a 5 year MAcc (Masters of Accountancy) program that goes straight through, but along the way they earn a BS in Accounting, essentially, also.</p>
<p>actually, there are programs that gurantees you a seat in the school of pharmacy straight from HS in which you will finish he pre-pharm reqs. before you begin your pharamcy studies.but not necessarily a BS/BA. The two schools that come to mind is the University of the Pacific and Rutgers.Traditionally, you would get a BS/BA... but with the innovation of accelerated programs, that kinda have been taking out of the picture. The question is, how would that affect graduate school?</p>
<p>Well, if you have a PharmD (Doctorate of Pharmacy, I assume), then what type of graduate school/degree would you be wanting to pursue? Seems to me that a PharmD is pretty much a graduate degree. I'm sure graduate schools will see it this way as well, and simply have you submit your GPA, graduate test scores, work experience, and satisfy any prerequisite requirements, if you haven't already satisfied them, in order to pursue "enter desired grad program here" degree at their institution.</p>
<p>Yea, I was thinking the same. Most programs list a BA/BS or equivalent/graduate level.
I think for example, USC's prerequsite for the MS in Regulatory Science implies that you don't necessarily need a bac. as long as you have something along the line that is on par or higher level than a BS/BA (i.e the doctor of pharmacy).</p>
