So im about to start my first semester majoring in Pre-pharmacy and im thinking I should get a head start on the PCAT. The only problem is I havent done any biology or chemistry in a long time. So should I wait till I take bio 101 and chem 101 before I even worry about it, or should I go ahead and start preparing for the PCAT?

If you find PCAT a piece of cake, why not give it a short?

If I were you, I would just focus on your classes. If this is going to be your first semester doing the pre-pharmacy curriculum I would devote all that extra time in ensuring that you get as many A's as you can in your classes. I wouldn't start studying the PCAT materials until you actually learned it in school. You have two years+ until pharmacy school. You have plenty of time 🙂

The way you study for the PCAT is by doing well in your classes. By that I don't mean getting an A; I mean that you understand the material backwards and forward and commit it to your long term memory.
