Hello all,
I took the Pcat this june. Did good in chem and math, but not in reading comprehension, verbal and biology.
I was soo tired, reading the passages, that by the time I reached the bio section, i did not have the stamina to finish it.

Got a 26 and a 33 percentile in verbal and reading respectively.
Any suggestions as to how to improve the reading and verbal.

thanks.
 
glitterstar,
Sorry but the only way to get better at reading and copmprehension is to do it. So here is the advice. Read pharmacy articles and then discuss them with another prepharm. This will help you with reading and understanding it, but it has a built in bonus. Yiou get to learn about the profession and the current trends. Guess what this will help you with interviews latter. As far as verbal---work some flash cards and look up words that you don't understand when reading those articles.
