Hello guys and gals,
I'm applying ED for VCU and I'm currently signed up for the July PCAT, but at this point I don't know how well I am going to do on the test. If I start studying today, I won't have that much time to study because I'm volunteering at two places and working lots of hours on top of taking a summer class. I've already taken the PCAT twice and if I don't get a good score on this one, then I feel like it will hurt my chances because they will say, "This guy's just messing around." IN reality, the first time I took the PCAT I didn't study, I just did it to get a feel for it before I actually studied for it. Btw, my gpa is about a 3.5. Here are my scores:
July 2011
Verbal 32
Biology 40
Reading Comp. 48
Quant 16
Chemistry 68
Comp 37
Obviously tragically horrible
But I studied a fair amount before the next one and my scores improved
September 2011
Verbal 77
Biology 54
Reading Comp 38
Quant 54
Chemistry 53
Comp 56
This grade is too low, obviously, but I know that there have been people who get in with low PCATs and I'm doing ED, so the competition isn't as much. I just want to know if it is worth taking the risk to take the PCAT again or not.
