Hey Strutter:

REA's PCAT review book for the PCAT is pretty good, but then I noticed they took the 1000 most commonly used SAT words!

Here's the link:

I studied this religiously and I got a 90% with the verbal section.

Hope this helps.

I recommend SAT I verbal by Kaplan
They don't have analogy section, but they have sentence completion and reading passages.

I studied them thoroughly and my sentence analysis skills improved.

Remember, you are trying to develop criticial thinking skill, so always reason your answer (don't say "this answer feels right"), and compare your reasoning to the book's

You can look up vocabs as well...

hey, I wrote about it before in some other threat, but MAT (miller analody test)book was extremely helpful for me. Think about it, MAt and pcat is given by the same company, so there is a chance that they use the same queations. Also I memorized a lot of words from mat list before the test and was extremely happy on the test, b/c I at list 10 words were from this list.
sat words did not helped at all as well as GRE

Your other posts show that you are planning to take the MCAT. Study materials for that should cover you for the PCAT.
