Degree with a higher paying salary (UK) than pharmacy ?
Security guards, gardeners, delivery drivers earn more than a majority of community pharmacists and don't need a degree. You want to earn more than most pharmacists - do these!

Also worth reminding that in Community Pharmacy there is no career structure. Extra qualifications and experience count for very little. CP is where 2/3 grads find employment.
Finishing your career more or less where you started is typical. And that also applies to salary.

Lowest entry requirements for pharmacy degree in the uk
foundation degree courses are generally CCC last I checked but have no idea since the pandemic started how it has changed
£46,788 base salary according to Indeed https://uk.indeed.com/career/pharmacist/salaries. However, most pharmacists I know earn between £55,000 - £75,000. I was on £65,000 as an employee before I became a locum due to family reasons. In healthcare, only consultants earn more than pharmacists. Pharmacists earn way more than nurses, foundation doctors etc.

If you don't mind where you study, then somewhere will probably take you through Clearing with CCC.
I think you need to focus on finding out about each profession and what work you would actually be doing all day.
(It's no good earning £40/45k a year as a community pharmacist if you hate the general public, or are extremely shy, etc.)
If I was you I would do plenty of research on jobs/careers that interest you, and then find out what degree you would need and the entry requirements. Your 6th form careers teacher or equivalent should be able to point you to suitable online resources. It may be worth doing a Myers-Briggs personality type quiz too, that helps match your personal qualities to suitable careers.
As Ecolier has noted, you are asking strings of questions, where you could pretty easily find the answers online.
(Regarding the figures quoted by one poster, they work in an area of the UK with a shortage of pharmacists. those salary figures are not typical of the average across the UK.)
