A. You need a minimum of 3.0 to probably at least even be considered. I would say even a 3.3 to even stand a good shot at it. Even for the non accredited schools now a days they need at least in the low 3s to even really be looked at.

How difficult and competitive are these pharmacy schools in the US?
Q. I'm mostly concerned with the schools in California in particular, since I'm planning to enroll in one of them, and I'm a student in a state university. But I would also like to know other schools in other states.

A. It is very difficult and competitive to get into U.S. Pharmacy schools. California is the most competitive state. Most of their schools want to see a bachelors. To be competitive you'll need a GPA of 3.4 and a PCAT score of 75. www.pharmcas.org has acceptance statistics for all the pharmcas schools. Good luck

A. Well because of it's competitiveness a bachelors degree is essentially a requirement when applying to medical schools, dental schools, or pharmacy schools so you should consider attending a four year university. Grades do not mean everything but you want to maintain a high GPA. You will also need a decent MCAT (medical school), DAT score (dental school) or PCAT (pharmacy school). You should get to know your professors so they will be able to write you strong letters of recommendation. Volunteer and get research experience to enhance your application. Just do as well as you can in the courses and good luck!
