I'm a recent graduate thinking about going to pharmacy school in 1 or 2 years. I did one practice PCAT test at Kaplan before and felt that the hardest part for me would be vocab and reading, which most people wouldn't think it that hard. I felt like for the bio or chem part I can study by myself, but for vocab or reading, I just felt I am way behind. I decided to gain some work experiences and prep for the PCAT before going to pharm school. Anyone has any suggestions how to improve on vocab or reading parts?? I didn't see any vocab books for PCAT, only for GRE.

If you can master GRE, you can easily master pcat verbal.

Ehh, I beg the differ. I think if one really wants to do well on the PCAT, I think they should master the SAT vocab. The analogies on the pcat are not that hard, and I think studying for the GRE words would be an over kill.
