Did the Next steps diagnostic free test (75 Composite Yay!!!) and bought the kaplan book for content review and planning to buy the Pearson practice test before the test date. My biggest worry is the chemistry and bio section which I am 50/51 percentile so we'll see.

I would have to say the next step diagnostic free tests were very accurate. I took 3 different tests, got nearly the same score on all of them, and I basically got the same score on the actual PCAT as I did on those free tests.

Ok any tips for raising the chemistry and/or biology part?

Its a test prep company that has a free diagnostic pcat test for you to take. Its probably the second most accurate practice test next to the official Pearson tests. I just did it to get an idea of where you I am preparation for the PCAT. They have different packages you can purchase but I don't know enough about them to determine if they are good or not.

Study more. There isn't any secret tips out there to increase your score other than to study more.

Well good luck to everyone taking it. I just finished a practice pearson test and seems a little bit better than the next steps diagnostics test. Hope everyone does great!!!!
