how many questions could you miss in each section of the PCAT to still have a competitive score? i'm still a little confused on how they score the PCAT. I want to be above the 80th percentile. Thanks!!

http://www.pcatweb.info/downloads/Faculty/PCATScoreInterpretationQuickReference.pdf should shed some light on how scoring is. Basically you won't know how many questions you can afford to get wrong. If you want a 80th percentile or higher you have to do better than 79% of the test takers.

AFAIK, you have no idea what gets you into a certain percentile because the test proctors do not release the raw scores out to you.
