AI Thread Summary
To graduate as a chemistry major at UCSD, students should focus on core chemistry courses, along with required electives that align with their specific interests and career goals. After transferring, students will typically take advanced chemistry classes, lab work, and possibly interdisciplinary courses that support their major. For pharmacy school, particularly at UCSD, essential classes include advanced biology, chemistry, physics, and math, which build a foundational knowledge crucial for the pharmacy curriculum. It is important for prospective students to assess whether their previous coursework in these subjects will be beneficial or if they need to refresh their knowledge.Additionally, potential pharmacy students should be aware of the current job market in the pharmacy field, as it has changed significantly. It is advisable to research employment trends and seek insights from current pharmacists to make informed decisions about pursuing a pharmacy degree, especially considering the financial investment involved. Resources like assist.org can help outline necessary classes for transfer students, but careful planning and research are essential.

I should really make two different thread for this one but meh

i'm asking what classes I would need to take in order to graduate, not to transfer/get in

1.
I'm going to transfer as a chemistry major hopefully to UCSD, university of california san diego (or UCs in general) and I'd like to know what classes would I most likely end up taking after I transfer in order to graduate? (say UCSD for example) I know it'd be different slightly from school to school, but at least I want to get a general idea.

2.
Also once I get into 4year(?) pharmacy school (let's say UCSD again), what classes would I have to take in order to finish the pharmacy program?

3.
as for Pharmacy school, are biology/chemistry/physics/math classes I took so farm helpful? It's been a while ever since I was out of school, so would I have to review all those areas?(I'm not asking required classes to get in, but required classes to graduate)

Physics news on Phys.org
Most schools list degree requirements on their Web sites.

I'm assuming transfer means from a CC, the site above gives you the required classes by major + the overlap from whichever CC you're transferring from.
 
Please be VERY careful about approaching the field of pharmacy. It isn't what it used to be and you should inform yourself of the employment situation before spending over $100K in student loans to go to pharmacy school. Read through the whole thread from pharmacists in the industry right now to get an idea of where it is headed:

TL;DR Summary: I want to do a PhD in applied math but I hate group theory, is this a big problem? Hello, I am a second-year math and physics double major with a minor in data science. I just finished group theory (today actually), and it was my least favorite class in all of university so far. It doesn't interest me, and I am also very bad at it compared to other math courses I have done. The other courses I have done are calculus I-III, ODEs, Linear Algebra, and Prob/Stats. Is it a...
Yesterday, 9/5/2025, when I was surfing, I found an article The Schwarzschild solution contains three problems, which can be easily solved - Journal of King Saud University - Science ABUNDANCE ESTIMATION IN AN ARID ENVIRONMENT https://jksus.org/the-schwarzschild-solution-contains-three-problems-which-can-be-easily-solved/ that has the derivation of a line element as a corrected version of the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein’s field equation.
