To be a pharmacist, you need to either apply directly to a 6-year BS/PharmD program, or instead earn a bachelors degree in something (chemistry is good) with pre-pharm classes, and then apply to a pharmacy school after college. Nursing isn’t going to help you here. If you can’t take chemistry at your school, transfer to a school where you can.

Question by Jrt: I want to be either a Pharmacist or Nurse?
I know you guys can’t pick my job and I know that I have to decide alone, but I need information on both pharmacist and nurse. Do you think these jobs are great or boring? I also need to know what I should do in order to pursue both of these jobs? How many years will it take me to complete either careers?
Thank You! I’m just really looking forward to my future!

Answer by —JULI—
RN= 4 years (you need a BSN to be competitive with other applicants for positions in today’s acute care setting) and an ASN takes about 3-3.5 years these days with a wait list.
You are looking at around 6-7 years (minimum) to become a Pharmacist.
There is a vast difference between the two careers, not just in terms of length of education and content you will have to learn (of course Pharmacy has a ton more science and higher math), but in nursing, you are providing direct patient care (for the most part) and as a Pharmacist, even in a retail pharmacy capacity, you are more of a “medical care advisor” to your clients/patients rather than a care giver.
