Pharmacy School have specific pre-requisites that are needed to get in. The best thing I think you should do is go through PharmCas pages and see what is needed for each school. www.pharmcas.org/collegesschools/schoolpages.htm.

Considering you have a degree in Biochemistry, you may have already met all the pre-requisites. It's just a matter of looking at what is required for your particular schools of interest AND taking the PCAT. The majority of schools require this.

Most US Pharmacy schools take 4 years of professional work. Some offer an expedited program with 3 years of work.

Good luck
