Education:

Students who would like to become a pharmacist should take the most challenging high school courses (including AP or IB) available in science, math, and English. All pharmacists must graduate from a college of pharmacy. Some pharmacy schools require you to have two years of pre-pharmacy education while other colleges admit students right after high school.  It usually takes six years to earn a pharmacy degree and six to earn a doctor of pharmacy degree.

I don't think I would like to become a pharmacist because it really doesn't interest me and it seems too boring for me.
