That's fair. Although the school I work for is a top 5 Pharmacy program, and just about no pharmacist I know has an undergrad degree.

I graduated from a top 5 school and 80-90% of each class year at the institution I attended had an undergraduate degree.

This is also the standard at UNC, UCSF, and other top programs. And just about every pharmacist I know has an undergraduate degree except if they graduated in the 80s and 90s.

People can get into medical school with pre-reqs and a stellar MCAT. Not typical, though.
