Hey guys,
I'm a third year science student and I did my PCAT 3 days ago, I studied for the entire summer and after doing my PCAT I came out with mixed emotions. I completely bombed the English section, even though English is my first language and I'm always told by teachers that I'm quite profound in the English language. So I know I can prove myself through interview or any other method that I'm capable of communicating well in English. I'm guessing I bombed it maybe because I was tired during those sections or I may have underestimated them as I didn't study much for them. However I did somewhat descent in the Chem, Bio and maybe even quant section. I'm somewhat content because these section are the most important, no? Anyways sorry for rambling on but here are my scores.

Verbal-46
Bio-89
Chem-89
Reading-54
Quant-72
Composite-80

Should I really do this PCAT again? I'm really not feeling it, but am I wrong for not considering a second try? Thanks for your opinions in advance!!
 
your PCAT score is pretty good. You should be proud to get a composite score of 80. But call up your #1 pharmacy school and ask them that same question.
 
In all seriousness, an 80 composite is a great score. You're in the competitive range for a lot of schools. As long as your GPA is around the average, you'll be fine.
