I'm pretty sure its a doctorate program....which means around 6-7 years? Being an MD is 8 years.

You should do a search for Pharmacology programs in BC. That's how I've gotten info on the med schools I'm looking at. There are always rankings and going to their websites will give you a feel for that particular school.

I'm pretty sure you'll need a lot of anatomy and chemistry classes because you'll be focused on what meds do to/for the body...and any possible interactions.

Good luck!
