HELLO EVERYONE!!
My PCAT is in a week, and the math is killing me...
Can anyone give me a realistic view on how difficult the math is..

Calculus isn't my thing 🙁

ThankS!
 
I think they restructured the test so that it contains more basic math/algebra and less calculus/pre calculus. You also get a calculator now which should make things go faster as well. If you are strong in basic math, algebra, and statistics, that will compensate for lower scores in the calculus areas.

Math is mostly algebra word problems now you can find that information in the blueprint. I heard calculator isn't accessible to all the problems and most likely only there for the harder arithmetic.
