Thanks for your answer. I forgot to add that the B.Pharm programs in Australia are 4yr schooling + 1 year pre-registration training right after graduation. I m not too sure if that makes up the five year program that America is requiring?

Lea's right. You're not going to be able to practice in the US with just a bachelors degree. If you want to work in the states as a pharmacist, you'd have to get a Pharm.D.

If you graduated internationally with a B.Pharm degree after 2003, you cannot be a pharmacist in the U.S. You'll not be allowed to take the registration exam.
Add: It might since it's a 5 year program. If you are truly interested, you should contact the applicable board of Pharmacy.
