Ouch. Not a good way to start off asking for help.

Most pharmacy schools like grades above a 3.0 and the higher you can get the better. You will find it's very similar to what most graduate schools are looking for. If you don't have the GPA then make up for it with a great PCAT (preferably above 80%) and some great experience in the pharmacy profession.

I'd suggest really looking at your reasons for wanting to go to pharmacy school because if the only reason you're doing it is because you couldn't hack it in pre-med, you may want to reconsider.
