What are pharmacy schools?

Are pharmacy schools different than medical schools? Where can I find a pharmacy school? Can I become a pharmacist online?

'pharmacy schools' are probably institutions (or schools) that offer courses in pharmacy and related subjects.
Usually, medical schools do offer pharmacy courses. But, there are institutions that only offer pharmacy courses and other courses, but no medicine.
Pharmacy deals mainly with drugs (the chemistry, the dosage, how it works and so on), while medicine deals with the human body, diseases and treatments. So, a medical school that offers only courses medicine will differ from anotrher school that offers pharmacy only, as the setup is different.
Use a search engine like Google or Yahoo and search for institutions (Or universities or schools) that offer pharmacy courses like BSc in Pharmacy, BPharma, Mpharma and so on.
You can't take online courses for pharmacy.

Actually, the best degree to have to practice pharmacy now is called a PharmD (modified PhD). There are many schools that offer it, some that are schools that only offer it, and sometimes you can start out with a basic biology degree then move on the grad school to get this degree. It is usually broken into two parts: two years of pre-pharmacy or biology, then grad school for four years.
I am currently in this program.
