Are these alright A-levels to become a pharmacists?

so im currently in year 11 and were picking our A-levels soon i want to become a pharmacists when im older but i was wondering are these A-levels alright (biology,chem and psychology) my teacher actually told me to do A-Level maths but no way thats way to hard for me but anyways are these decent A-Levels to do a degree in pharmacy?
Im also wondering how long do you have to stay in uni to do a degree in pharmacy?? and is the course actually hard??

- Any advice would be very much appreciated

As long as you have Chem you are fine.
So those a levels are good.
I think that those A Level subjects are really amazing, I am currently in my first year of A Levels doing the same subjects. Pharmacy is very competitive and lots of people across the UK apply for it so to make your application, you should consider doing Maths or Physics A Levels. If u do 4 A Levels, you would be able to quit one if you don't want to do it anymore. You also need strong GCSE's, at least 8 at 9-4.

you have to do chemistry for sure and some unis ask for two sciences out of maths/bio/chem/phys so you should be fine
