pharmcas

On the PharmCAS website, it indicates a series of standardized survey questions for general evaluation of a candidate. Does anyone know if a section for a written composition is also in the evaluation portal? I want to know whether or not I need to inform my references about this so they don't...

So I have been here since it became 07/18/2017 as the official for PharmCas to open up,,, but all am getting is a 404 error page. Anyone have any insights in an actual time for this thing to get underway? Thanks.

what does it mean exactly by "Do NOT personalize your essay for a particular pharmacy degree program" in the PharmCAS personal statement? Im wondering because in my personal essay I wanted to talk about how I wanted to be a Research Pharmacist but Im not sure if that is something I should not...

Hello! I recently submitted my PharmCAS application and I wonder how long it usually take for schools to receive it. I'm also waiting for the supplemental application, but it says I won't receive it until the school that I'm applying to has my PharmCAS application. Thanks!

Hi guys, Is there an way you can send the schools of interested the PCAT you took for an second time instead of the first one? I am a little confused, I am new to the pharmcas website.

I am still not done with my PharmCAS application. The reason is because I have been dragging on my PCAT. I did terrible on the one in September and I missed the test on November. -Bachelor's of Science (chemistry) -A year of hospital volunteer experience -Cumulative 3.2 gpa -LOR: from a...

I am in the process of applying to pharmacy school now. My biggest concerns are the amount of W's I have on my transcript. I'm the first person in my family to go to college so I didn't have a lot of guidance from my family. Freshmen year I registered for classes that were under the same...

Guys I need some advice, I took the PCAT in July2016 and these were my scores: Essay: 2.5 BIOL: 82 CHEM: 96 QR:29 CR:16 COMP: 64 I haven't registered for the OCT/NOV PCAT because im unsure if I can retake it and be ready (PCAT results in pharmcas) for the Dec 1 2016 pharmcas deadline. What do...

Hi ya'll had a question. So in the section on pharmcas, if I took the pcat and don't want to report the score, can I choose not to include it in pharmcas application?! Currently, I put "planned", but if after 5 weeks I find out my percentile is low, can I choose not to send the score and also...

Couldn't find a thread yet for the application this year for UT Austin! I submitted for early decision and wanted to see if anyone else is on here who did the same!

So i submitted my application on 8/15 it was just verified this morning 8/25!!! I have a couple quedtions. When does PharmCAS actually mail out the applications? And do they send the schools copies of my transcript or so they just get my GPAs or do they just get like a copy of all tje courses I...

Hello everyone! I was wondering if someone would be so kind to look over my statement. It has been reviewed by a couple Pharmacists already, but I want more opinions on it. Message me if you're interested. Thank you!

I submitted mine on 8/15. It still hasnt been verified. I figured it was still early and they would only take a few days to verify. It has only been 1 week though. Has anyone sumbitted their apications in the month of august and been verified yet? Or does anybody know how behind they are on...

For this section, the instructions say "Enter any special academic, service, or activity awards you have received in order of importance to you. List each honor or award only once. For instance, if you were on the “dean’s list” for more than one term, list that distinction only once. You may...

Hello, The details to my question are a bit more explanatory than the vagueness of my title. I have thoroughly done my research and am very aware of deadlines/procedures, etc. The only part I am unclear of, is when exactly my designated program (early decision) will receive my application and...

Has anyone submitted their application and been verified yet? How long did that take? I submitted mine last night and I figured it's still early right? So it shouldn't take too long. Also has anyone who took the july PCAT had them post to PharmCAS yet? I took it juky 21st but i didnt wanna wait...

Hey guys, I was just wondering how long it took your transcripts to be posted to PharmCAS. I sent three of mine back in the middle of July, and two were received, but one was not so I resent it on the 3rd. It is still marked as not received, so I was wondering if I should give it a little more...

Hey guys, I was just wondering if your all's PCAT scores from July had been posted on PharmCas yet? I made the mistake of just sending my scores to the school(s) I'm applying to, but it said they sent to PharmCAS anyways. Wasn't sure if I need to redirect them to PharmCAS or if nobody's is...

I took the PCAT today for the first time. My preliminary report showed that I am in the 74th percentile. My current GPA is 3.511. I will be doing the University of Kentucky's early decision process this fall. I have 2.5 years of Pharmacy technician experience, in addition to some shadowing...

Hi guys, I'm in a very bad predicament. I have been working as a pharmacy technician for 2 years. I will graduate with a biology degree this summer. However my college years have not been so great. I had many obstacles my way being the eldest child I had to work full time as well as be a full...

Hi I'm currently a sophomore in college. I was planning on seeking pharmacy school admission for the Fall 2017 class. Is it true that we have to take the PCAT exam before October 2016 to be considered a part of the 2017 application cycle? I was planning on taking it in July 2016 but I realized I...

This is my first time applying for pharmacy school and I've pretty much applied to the schools I want to go to, but I got an email that PharmCAS listed a bunch of schools that were currently willing to "extend" their deadlines. My question is that since I've already submitted the PharmCAS...

Im filling out pharmcas, and currently in the coursework section. When "adding a new session" it asks for the 'academic status' (Select your student registration status during this term). I've been in school for 5 years (4 years at community college). I am unsure when to start adding the...

Hi, I was just curious if I could still apply to some schools with upcoming deadlines even though my letters of recommendation aren't finished. Two of my three references are still working on the multiple, but I don't want to rush them. Is it possible to submit a complete (aside from LOR)...

Ok, so I have submitted my PharmCas application and was waiting on my coursework to be put in. I have just verified that my coursework was correct. How long before my GPA is finished? Will my pharmacy school not receive my application until that is completed? Also, I am having trouble getting my...

Hi everyone, I'm trying to write out my personal essay and I'm not sure what to write in it... I have a lower gpa (2.7 something), so I know I should incorporate that somehow, but I don't know where to begin or how to even address it? Can anyone give me advice on how to approach the personal...

So I am a bit frantic. I have typed my personal statement on Microsoft Word and have attempted to paste it within the personal statement section on PharmCas. However, I lose some ( but not all) of the tabs that are within my paper to separate my paragraphs. When I try to edit my statement on...

[I am new to posting on forums.] I finished my final draft of my PharmCAS personal essay and would like some peer review. How this work? :)

Okay so here is my situation. I have basically everything submitted to pharmcas. Transcripts, LORS, and Personal statement. I just recently took my pcat last week and I am still waiting for the official scores to post up. Should i send my pharmcas without my pcat scores first? It gets a little...

So I just e-submitted my application yesterday and I just realized I might have made a huge mistake! I accidentally answered "yes" in the background section pertaining to academic dishonesty/professional misconduct. I failed Calculus 1, which I later retook for a B, and provided a complete...

Hello, I'm hoping to receiver some advice/ get some questions answered regarding the reference section of PharmCAS. My entire application is complete except for the reference section. I am not sure what is taking my references long... Anyway I know I can submit my application now and send out...

Hello, I'm beginning my personal essay to submit to PharmCAS and was wondering if I would be able to get someone to peer review my work before submission. Any help or advice on this subject would be greatly appreciated!

So I'm extremely new to SDN (this is my first post) so be merciful pls :) I just wanted to know if Pharmacy schools take into account your new GPA if you have retaken a class or two. Doing so has really helped my GPA so I was wondering if Pharmacy schools would consider it. Also, do any other...

Hello everyone! I forgot to submit a transcript for the community college class I took and am *panicking*! It was one class--a pre-req for my Biology major. I'm going to run out tomorrow and turn in a transcript request form for my CC, but am worried the processing time of my app will be...

Hi everyone. I am looking to submit my pharmcas application by the end of the week. I would greatly appreciate it if my personal statement can be reviewed by some of you. I don't have much experience writing them and I want to make sure my essay is solid. Thank You All!!!
