I talked to the pharmacy admissions advisor at my top choice school. I told her my scores and she said i didn't need to retake the pcat but i have a 7 in reading! I had a composite score of 53 percent with a 92 in Chem, 58 in Biology, 57 in Math, and a 7 in reading. She told me i was still competitive since my GPA is 3.86. Is this possible? I guess some pharmacy schools only look at the science scores?

tbh you should be very happy! I'm form Canada and applying to the University of Toronto pharmD program and with those pcat marks I would not even meet the cut off and be rejected
