like you are over preparing for the PCAT. I really don't know what to study and what not to? I am reading all my chemistry text books.... I also read Kaplan for biology. I have to review calculus and statistics. This preparation is making me very nervous. Anyways Good Luck 👍with all your preparation.

I don't know if I am over prepared or underprepared, but I can't wait till the stress is over! I tell myself everyday I can't wait till August 25th.

Are you kidding me!? I keep thinking I should sign up for the October PCAT because I started late and I'm so not prepared. I could study 24/7 till the exam and I would still have material left to read or practice on.
 
Overpreparation would be like laboring over the stuff you learned in advanced physical chemistry in lieu of general chemistry studying. The more practice you have with the core concepts (and even slightly more advanced versions of the same concepts found in later courses), the better off you'll be. You can't really overprepare from that standpoint.
 
Do any of you ever feel up and down about how you're gonna do on the test? Feel super-confident one day, feel completely helpless the next? Yesterday, I felt I was super-ready, but today, I feel like i'm going to score a 50. Maybe it's chemical.
 
I've been feeling that way, too! At the moment, I'm in the slump - especially after reading the recent, bumped post with the June PCAT-ers comments on the redesigned test. 🙁

Maybe if I apply the "secret" concept of visualizing myself getting through the test with ease, I'll go back to feeling good again.

I'll be glad when it's over. But then comes the slow and agonizing wait for the scores :scared:
