I'm taking pre-cal now and I'm dying lol. I'm not really good at math well at pre-cal but I'm pretty good with science tho. So do I have to take calculus in college in order to get into pharmacy school and become a pharmacist?? Help

Okay if I have to take it do I need a really good grade at it?

Yes, it is a required course. Its purpose is to be a weed out course. You'll never use it once you are in pharmacy school.

Yep, at least at University of Maryland you do...oh, I go there. Here's a site where you can look at some of the pre-requisites needed to get into the Pharmacy program.
