So, for the biology section of the PCAT... I've taken human physiology, but not anatomy. Assuming I don't want to shell out $20+ for an anatomy prep book, could I just try to find free anatomy material on the web, or would this not be 'in depth' enough? Thanks.

You won't need to know the nitty gritty details of anatomy... just know positioning like proximal, supra, distal, etc. and know epigastric, umbilical, inguinal... stuff like that. They might ask things about major bones like the radius vs ulna. They might ask stuff about the cranial nerves and their MAIN functions. I wouldn't go TOO heavily into detail on anatomy. Just know the basics. A quick read through the anatomy chapters in any A&P book will do.
