I would agree with the first answer of talking to a guidance counselor. I’m not sure if you will have to have a high school diploma if the tests you are taking is the equivalent of it. Also you might want to check around at some local community colleges and take some core classes (math, science, english, history, foreign language) that will transfer to a major university. You will need to declare a pre med or a pre pharmacy major at a four year university after completion of community college. (Community college is optional. You can get everything at a four year school and not have to transfer.) After you graduate with a degree in pre med or pre pharmacy you will apply to a pharmacy school. This is where you will receive your formal training as a pharmacist. Total time in college will be around 6-8 years. Good luck and I hope this helped.
