Good GPA, bad PCAT

[DoctorSaab]

Someone was telling me that if you have a pretty good GPA ~3.4+, and you do poorly on the PCAT's, you can still get in Pharmacy school pretty easily....

How true is this?

I think it is the other way around.

I sure wouldn't say easily by any means. But if you are good in one and didnt do so well on the other, they will usually look at you. (meaning did well on the PCAT with average grades and poor on the PCAT with awesome grades) Lately, some schools quit taking the PCAT into account because some feal that it doesn't give an accurate assesment of the student. I however do not feel that way, but thats my own personal conviction.
