Your question caught my eye as I went to Pharmacy School for 2 years, then transferred over to Medical School. I also scored a 27 on the ACT the first time I took it in college (and a 29 after repeating). Pharmacy School was just as hard as Medical School. Residency programs have gotten easier over the years (80 hour work week and a lot of specialties don’t even come close to that). I worked in both retail and hospital pharmacy and found it terribly boring. You are young and I wouldn’t close any doors on applying to medical school - it’s a very rewarding career!
