This is patently wrong. Here is a great summary of admission requirements and curricula of various pharmacy schools. </p>

<p>I think you can see that a student will get a pretty average college experience during freshman and sophomore years as a “prepharmacy” major, even if it is followed by three or four years of pharmacy school. Lots of students who are NOT pharmacy students will be taking math, chem, bio, english, econ, etc.</p>
<p>By all means, get a bachelors degree before pharmacy school if you want to, but it is not necessary. Furthermore, I believe that there will be plenty of time over the first two years of general classes to decide if pharmacy is really what you want to do. If not, you can go in another direction with no loss of time. But more importantly, if you DO want to do pharmacy, you will have all of the requirements in and you will have two extra years of income rather than two extra years of tuition.</p>
