I think if you have a passion, you should follow it! I haven't seen Calculus since my last exam in college, lol.
I have friends in all types of jobs. They are all stressful. Unfortunately that is the way life is. As far as being liable, that is true. I can't go to work with an attitude like that. I am a Pharmacist because I want to help people. The last thing I want to do is harm someone. We are prepared in school and take continuing education to do the best job on a daily basis.

Calculus is a "weeder" class for pharmacy. It does involve math, but usually basic algebra. Pharmacy is a lot of chemistry, but it does involve some biology too. Have you tried job shadowing a pharmacist? Pharmacy isn't only working at a CVS or Rite Aid. It also involves hospitals, nursing home consultants, insurance companies, drug companies, direct contact with patients in a a clinic or a hospital floor (clinical pharmacy).
