I am a pre-optometry student, but I have always had an interest in pharmacy because my father is a pharmacist. I just had a question about which pharmacy schools do not require a PCAT score for admission. thanks

From what I have read, schools in California do not require the PCAT.

Here's a great way to see the schools that don't require the PCAT. Go to the following site and leave everything blank except the option that says 'PCAT Required for admission' Select No for that option and press the search option and you'll get a list of 32 schools that don't require the PCAT and links to each of the schools:

Edit: O, and this is the site that the above person was talking about:

For those who were accepted without having to take the PCAT, what was your overall grade point average? I am looking at a few schools. Some require the PCAT and others do not.

The PharmCAS site will only list schools that use PharmCAS...not that that is a bad thing...
