Pharmcas opens up mid July (15th. I believe)!

What's your choices of school??

When will you be applying (month)?

When will you take the PCAT?

Let's get to know this upcoming cycle applicants! Good luck!

 

[NCPanthers8]

ETSU, South Carolina, Wingate, Campbell, Presbyterian, and High Point (fall back option).

I take the PCAT July 22nd and will apply as soon as my official scored is received and my transcript is received, so hopefully no later than the end of August.

Whoa! Talk about fast!
That sounds good! Have you previously taken the Pcat or is this your first time?

How have you studied, materials?

 

[NCPanthers8]

Well I'm not sure if this is true or not, but I've heard the earlier you apply the better your chances, plus I'll update my grades after the Fall semester when Pharmcas has their update window.

This will be my first time taking the PCAT and I'm nervous, with work and 2 classes this Summer, I definitely haven't had the time I'd like to study for it. Plus no one really knows how the new changes will truly be, you know? I mean I've read on their website what the changes are, but I'd like to see a few practice problems of what they exactly mean.

I have the 2017 Kaplan book and an older Dr. Collins (which I'm not too sure how helpful it will be since it is older and the 2016 PCAT is different.)

What about you? What schools are you applying to and when? What are you studying?

Well, I'm not 100% sure of the schools I'll be applying. I have a few in mind, but don't want to mention any until I do some further research.
I have heard that the earlier you apply, higher the chances. And I think it fairly true. Hopefully I'll be submitting my pharmcas no later than December 1. Hopefully.
I still have 2 courses I'll be taking this upcoming semester and I'll be studying for the Pcat. Planning on taking it early October.

I ordered last week from Amazon the 2016-2017 Kaplan book. That's all I'll be using considering I'm on a budget and am paying my way through these 2 courses from my pocket.

I found on YouTube a lottttttt of great free videos that show you PCAT questions and how to break them down and not be tricked by certain type of questions. I can't remember exactly what I searched, just search PCAT Chemistry, PCAT Math, etc.

PCATAcademy? I think that's one.

 

[NCPanthers8]

Yes, I believe that's it!
