Bit confused with decisions! Heard you can take any course subject for 5 credits ? So does that mean i could take a bit of pharmaceutical?

Well after you pick your main subjects (e.g. 3 majors each worth 20 credits, or 2 majors and 2 minors 40 + 10 + 10 credits etc...) you can then choose electives, usually you choose 10 credits of electives (i.e. 2 modules) now you can pick anything you want, but some of them will be restricted for obvious reasons, it would be pretty bad to pick a 3rd year medicine elective! The main thing to remember is once you pick one major and take either another major or two minor you can do whatever you want within a certain parameter and if you have a head for something then you can do it, all will be made clear on registration day. Hope that helps!
