Okay...so the PCAT has more calc on it now...but I still don't know how much I need to know. Would reviewing the first semester of calc be good enough or do we have to start doing areas of 3-D graphs??? Thanks guys.

Reviewing first semester is good. You want to be comfortable with derivatives and integrals. I think some limit problems pop-up sometimes too. There were maybe one or two weird calc questions that I had no idea what to do with/never seen. I've taken two semesters of calc. Those were either experimentals or finding the super smart people type questions.

Estimate the area under a curve using rectangles. More than once.

Triple intergrals needed to find the volume of the 3-d graph aren't on the PCAT. The focus of the PCAT calculus revolves around first semester calc with a little second semester for good background. Any other math class beyond that is excessive.
