Hi I'm a junior in high school planning to become a pharmacist and I was wondering what grades I would need in high school in order to make this possible. Does the fact that I take all honors mean anything? Also, I would like to know how extracurriculars would help for college. I currently am in speech league, community service group, and play varsity baseball. Do they have any significance to college or even getting a job?
As for my grades, I am in the A-, B+ area in physics and trig, but my english, spanish III, and history grades are C's. Is this inefficient and does it really matter? Luckily I'm not taking history or spanish my senior year but I'm taking AP chem and AP calc. My parents keep saying that I need to get my low grades up to be pharmacist but my low grades seem irrelevant to the profession. Can anyone help?

Suppose I get A's in calc and chem, do the other subjects I mentioned matter? My GPA will obviously be affected so will that effect the way colleges see me? That's my real problem at this point. I don't think I'll have a problem in the subjects you mentioned. It's the irrelevant subjects like spanish that worry me.

Hi, i'm a GCSE student, and i am not doing bad in my math and english because i think i can get A's and B's but for science i'm not sure whether i can get above a C, i desperately need and want to become a pharmacist, would i be able to get away with a C or not?
And do i only need an A and a B for Chemistry or for biology and physics too?
And what is calculus because i've never heard of it, do i need to study that for GCSE's in order to become a pharmacist?

You need all A's and you need to have faith in yourself. Bribing teachers is good too.
