choosing a pharmS should be of the least priority now...

for transferring if you complete all your pre-reqs, and you have a 3.0+ GPA you can usually get in everywhere except UCLA and UCB. UCI is probably not going to happen for you though, they want B's in Gen Chem. It is kind of weird that UCSD and UCSB only require C's though.

Just curious though, why did you get C's in gen chem? I mean if you want to get into Pharmacy isn't Chem one of those subjects you need to actually be really good in?

Pharmacy schools do emphasize on Chemistry and Organic Chemistry, advanced medical organic chemistry, Biochemistry and some Chemical Physics. Those C's don't look good. Plus, you can't renew any grade above a C-.
Don't withdraw from classes, because it will bite you in the butt later.
