I just started studying for the October PCAT about a week ago, and I have been using MCAT books for the science material and I wanted to know what kind of orgo will be on the PCAT. I bought the Kaplan PCAT review and it has only one chapter on orgo and it deals with nomenclature and other basic stuff but no reactions. Do we have to know ANY reactions at all for organic on the PCAT???

Yes you do need to know reactions. The test focuses more on semester 1, but semester 2 stuff does pop up.

really? I thought it was more ochem 2 material with all the functional group reactions and aromatic rather than say alkene, alkyne reactions. At least i thought so in January.

I took it last August and then I would say it was maybe 40/60. Just from what I've read on here people have said it's more of 1 than 2. Tricky PCAT changing it up!
