Hi everyone,
I am in a really tricky situation right now. I am going to apply to U of Toronto Pharmacy this year and I don't know if I should retake the PCAT.
Verbal: 71
Biology: 79
Reading Comp: 45
Quantitative Ability: 97
Chemistry: 82
Composite: 80
Writing: 2.5 in both categories
-I really do NOT have the time to study thoroughly - at max I have about a week and a half, if I retake I risk lowering all my other sections for writing section. I've completely forgotten all the ochem rxns by now.
My main concerns is
-the 2.5 in writing, I am not sure how much UT emphasizes this or if this even meets the cut offs (which is not on site).
-I am afraid if I retake it my chem grade might go lower since I am quite weak on chem - I've only got low 70s in university chemistry courses
-Will my reading comp be a problem?
-Are my scores competitive?
--My cgp is EST. 3.4-3.5 at time of application
I would really really appreciate any advice
Thanks
