This study aims to analyse what pharmacy students need basic chemical concepts as prerequisite concepts in learning other concepts based on the curriculum. To achieve the expected goals, an analysis of the Semester Learning Plans (RPS). This research method was carried out descriptively, and the data obtained were processed qualitatively. The data obtained shows that 46% or 18 of the 39 courses in the five science units are subjects related to basic chemistry. Based on the analysis of the relationship between concepts in basic chemistry and other subjects, it was found that the concepts in the subject matter have a relationship of 16%, atomic structure 2%, periodic system of elements 6%, chemical bonds 20%, complex compounds 2%, stoichiometry 16%, redox and electrochemistry 12%, reaction rate 10%, nuclear chemistry 10%, and elemental chemistry 4%. Although the percentage value is low, it has an important relationship as one of the prerequisite materials. The real impact of this research is that the process of preparing the RPS has now adjusted to the needs of the concepts needed by students so that students can understand the next concept well. © School of Engineering, Taylor's University
