I'm writing the PCAT in August for the 3rd time. This time around, I find that my studying progress is fluctuating. I'm using Kaplan and DR. collins and I find, if i do dr collins excercises, I do well. I score in the 80s. If i use Kaplan, I do poorly (especially verbal and reading). I'm studying approximately 3-4 hours a day and I'm constantly trying to improve my vocab for the verbal ability. Yet, /I still feel like I'm not doing good enough nad I dont feel like I'm studying the right way. Can someone please give me some tips or suggestions on how to study for this exam? If you've taken the exam and scored high, can you please tell me how you studied?? any methods? tricks? did you do lots of practice or did you try to memorize everything? did u use kaplan or dr collins? etc.. any help will be appreciated. THANK YOU.
