Pre-Pharmacy Course Plan

Step One: Knowing where you place in Mathematics and Chemistry.

• Your Math placement is determined by your ACT, ALEKS Math PPL and/or AP scores. Concurrent Enrollment coursework in Math can also determine where you place in Math. Find more information on our Math & English Placement website.

• Students start with CHEM 1200. Students may place out of CHEM 1200, the required prerequisite for CHEM 1210/1215, if one of the below has been met. Contact the Department of Chemistry for an override of CHEM 1200 if you meet any of the following:

  • AP Chemistry score of 4 or better. Students recieve credit for CHEM 1210, however the lab course, CHEM 1215, is still required.

  • AP Chemistry score of 3 or better. 

  • Completed chemistry in high school, CHEM 1010, or CHEM 1110 and placed at MATH 1050 or better.
