I think right now trying to narrow down between the two future careers is a little premature. To become both a radiologist and a pharmacist you will need at least 2 semester of gen chem + lab, 2 semesters of ochem + lab, 2 semesters of biology + lab, physics, biochemistry, calculus, stats, anatomy + physiology, among other classes. I would suggest taking these classes and see how you do in them before worrying about whether you want to be a radiologist or a pharmacist.

As for where to go to school, if your ultimate goal is to become a pharmacist or a radiologist, you are probably going to have to spend a considerable amount of money on schooling. The pursuit of either an M.D. or a PharmD is very costly. Consequently, I would recommend going to whichever school will cost you less for undergrad. Both Rutgers and Boston college are great schools, and I don’t personally view one as being significantly better than the other.
