After doing a search and finding out that guy in Florida who teaches a killer PCAT test prep course, I was curious if there was anyone like that in the SF bay area.


Although I am aiming for CA schools next year, there are still a few out of state schools I would love a shot at. PCAT was never my thing (I scored a 50 something my first and only time). I am looking for a full day/weekend prep course. Let me know if anyone knows one. Thanks!

Hi Eddie

There are PCAT prep courses available- look into Kaplan b/c I know they have one for sure. You don't hear of many people taking them because you really don't need to take them. I know you said you scored a 50- my advice would be to take about a month to fully review the Kaplan PCAT book- go over all the materials. And after you've reviewed- spend about a week working on your test taking skills. I definitely think your score will improve drastically from taking those two steps-AND you'll save yourself $800.

As a sidenote- If you're planning to apply out of state, apply EARLY. You are already at a disadvantage by being out of state and you'll dig yourself into a bigger hole if you don't do so hot on your PCATs. Actually, you should apply early to the CA schools as well- especially UOP and USC. I don't know about the others.

Goodluck.
