Anatomy vs. Physiology for the PCAT?

[eevee]

The school that I'm currently attending only offers Anatomy (with lab) and physiology separately.
I want to take the PCAT during my junior year, and due to schedule complications, will not be able to take both before the exam.

For those who have taken the PCAT; would you recommend anatomy over physiology, or vice versa? Why?

Thank you

Why physiology and not anatomy?

Why physiology and not anatomy?

why ? I guess you have not seen a sample of the PCAT test yet.

the answer is that the PCAT is just not heavy on anatomy. It is best to have both but if you have to make choice, I would go with physiology.

Agreed with above.

When i took it last year there was virtually no Anatomy and any physiology was learned from General Bio or Micro

Physiology. I only had 1 Anatomy question on my PCAT exam

Everyone has got it right. Take physiology first if you need it for the PCAT.
