Frist of all.. you need to CALM down dear. I guarantee you that if you truely want to be a pharmacist you will be able to become one. Your scores and GPA are just fine...
Have you checked out the St. Louis College of Pharmcy? It's in St. Louis, Missouri, which is farther away than most schools you are applying to, but still, it may be worth a shot.
Also, if you insist that your scores are so low (they aren't), maybe you should consider taking the ACT. I have a friend who didn't break 1000 on the SAT but got a 32 on the ACT. Maybe the different format (no guessing penalty) among other factors will help you achieve a higher score...

RELAX! You'll make it I promise .
