Applying question

Hey guys

I'm planning to take the PCAT this august and I'm currently working on my Pharmcas app as well. Is it better to send out my application before taking the PCAT or wait until I have my scores, then send out the app. Thanks

Take the PCAT first. If you are supremely confident, you can submit after you finish your PCAT. If not, wait until you receive your scores before submitting your PharmCAS. Either way, you should take your PCAT first because this allows you to cancel your scores.

You don't want to submit your PharmCAS without your PCAT score or a low score, because some schools may begin the screening process before all your materials are complete. You always want to have your best foot forward 😉.

Hi there, what does it mean? Either way, you should take your PCAT first because this allows you to cancel your scores.?? what cancelation are you talking about?

I also was interesting in what if I got bad score and want to retake pcat in october, then how can i choose best grade ( out of two) ? How does it work ? Do i request my scores to be sent to me or some other schools that not in my list and then to see if it is good then to request scores to schools? it works, please help me .
thanks
