Well, I'm 15, but I'm still trying to decide what I want my career to be. If I want go become a Pharmasist, which courses should I take. From my understanding, don't you need 4 years of college and then a graduate program? What would those 4 years of college consist of? I'm so confused, HELP!

There are several kind of pharmacy programs. There are 0+6 programs which accept you right out of high school. There are 2+4 programs which accept you after you complete approximately 2 years of prePharm work at college. Finally, there are 4+4 programs, and they require a bachelors degree.
Since you're in high school, taking the standard college prep course load will be good. If your school offers an elective in biochemistry, organic chemistry, anatomy, physiology, medical technology, that'll be good.
When in college, take a lot of chemistry. Look at the schools you're interested in, and they will tell you what you need.

No you need with many programs now six years of undergraduate courses. I would suggest you check out the program at URI as an example http://www.uri.edu/pharmacy/ and you could contact them with your questions.
Good Luck!!!
