Chancing without a PCAT is pointless.

Chancing without a PCAT is pointless.

Hi! I completely understand that, I just wanted to see if my other stats are okay. Any advice regarding how I can make myself a better applicant (besides PCAT scores) is helpful also 🙂

Hi. I think you're golden. Just keep doing what you've been doing and aim for that 80 percentile or higher on PCAT and you're good.

Hi! I just got into UNC. I think you are good so far. Maybe try to get some research experience because UNC recommends that on their website. Study hard and do the best you can on PCAT-UNC is pretty competitive. I cannot speak for other schools but with a competitive PCAT score and good interview performance, you should be good.
