I live in San Antonio! I feel like my 82 is good but when people start posting their 90+ im going to feel like an idiot! but its ok the schools I am applying for only require 50-60% so I feel good about that. My GPA is a 3.71

 

[Ethyl Methyl]

Congratulations! 82 is a competitive score in Texas.

 

[confettiflyer]

whoo nice...I highly doubt I will get them today (I'm in Southern California), and freakin' a, I'm leaving for a trip today and will be out of town until MONDAY next week! Plus, I want to be the one who opens the envelope, so I won't have my housemates open it and call me up.

Gahhh...darn you Harcourt! But kudos to the early release of scores, hopefully it'll make it to schools in time for some first round interviews.

 

[utsatwirler]

Congratulations! 82 is a competitive score in Texas.

Thank you so much! I was stressing so bad b/c it was the first time I had taken it and I have a panic attack disorder so I had to take a xanax before taking it, so I'm feeling pretty good right now! celebration time!

OMG, I'm so happy for you!!!!!!! I'd like to taste that happiness right now. I'm in Florida. I expect above 90%ile for both Verbal and Biology. English, is not too bad. However, if I can get at least 70+ in math then I will have a very high score. This was my second time taking it (poor timing first time). WOW! CONGRATS. ENJOY TURKEY NOW.

Hosayif, congrats to you!!!!!!!!!

hey congrats, that's a great score. as for california and pharmcas in MA, i *think* pharmcas receives the scores electronically. I'm sure it's cheaper for Harcourt and easier on PharmCAS vs. opening thousands of envelopes and putting in scores. then again, we still have to bubble in scantrons for the pcat. that's soooo 1990's =(

Thanks guys! Ya'll are all so nice (can you tell I'm from Texas). Good luck with your test! You have to post when you get yours!

 

[SoccerCoach10]

Isn't Harcourt in Texas?
Most likely all the Texas folks will get them today and everyone else will get them sometime this weekend.

Good job guys!

 

[steveysmith54]

WOW. congrats guys. The woman who i spoke to at Harcourt didn't give me correct info. hmm...

Hope to get mine soon.

 

[LoKoTe]

well, my scores are here, got a 75 composite, which is ok for a first time I guess. I'm sure I'll do a lot better in january but so far your scores are awesome guys and girls

 

[iwannapushpills]

harcourt is in san antonio, that is why she got hers fast. I live in houston and it did not show up today. congrats!

 

[fenil2005]

well, 75 is good enough to get into pharmacy program, if your gpa is above 3.5 and you have a good overall application...i will not take pcat again if i get a composite of 75..fingers are crossed...

 

[Pharmpills]

OMGGGG god have mercy i made a 95 from 51 first time to 70 second time to a 95 now omg ive never been so shocked in my life

 

[Phlame217]

i got a 3/3 too which is great dude bc ave is below 3.0 even a 2.0 isnt a big deal with that score bc once u made an A in english in college or a B then u know ur stuff. Wowww what a present before thanksgiving maybe they willfully submitted our scores who knows lol

 

[TTprepharm]

Hey, how come PharmCas posted the date of PCAT to be Oct 7 and the actual test date was Oct 20. I cannot see me score on PharmCAS.
If my gpa is 3.17 , will I be competitive for Pharm School?

 

[CYNTO]

i got my scores today

82% im happy with that!

A big congrats to you yr chances of geting in are very high. If i may ask, what materials did you use and how did you study for the test?.

 

[CYNTO]

Hi congrats how did you do it and what materials and strategies did you apply for the test.

 

[CYNTO]

OMGGGG god have mercy i made a 95 from 51 first time to 70 second time to a 95 now omg ive never been so shocked in my life

i pm you before, i just wanted to know the secrets to this dramatic increase in yr. score.

It means you took the test in Oct 2007 not Oct 7th... I'm still waiting for my scores to come by snail mail!

I thought the same thing and then realized it was October 2007 (OCT 07).

[Pharmpills]

i replied son bruahahaha what a day! For others i would say take upper level classes like Microbio, Anatomy, Cell/molec bio, biochem..i mean yeah they are hard but pharmacy is harder. read and study ahead of time n u'll be good to go.

 

[pharmgirl28]

pharm pills-

Congrats!!!

what do u feel helped you improve from the past 2 times that u took the exam??? like any particular study books?

THanks

 

[mikeaparker]

Here are some exerpts from 3 posts with scaled/percentile scores:

Does this make sense????

Quantitative Ability: 393 42%
Quantitative Ability: 415 79%
Quantitative Ability: 418 76%


How is it possible that the person with a 418 got a 76%
and the person with a 415 got a 79%

Am I missing something???? This seems bass ackwards!


Thanks for your help.

I'm really thankful. yeah I'm glad they sent in the scores so soon.

 

[moolman]

It could be because both people took different versions of the test. Each test is curved to the level of difficulty. So you can get a lower raw score and get a higher percentile ranking, if your test was harder.

I don't know if this is true but just a theory.

simply..someone mistyped data or isnt telling the whole story lol but all scores are same once scaled.

thanku, well i studied kaplan alot the past 2 times lol and got 50 and 70 i believe so kaplan helps but dosnt help u to an extreme extent. i would say it falls with the classes u take, microbio, cellbio, anatomy helped me aton with bio portion, im naturally good at math bc i took so many math classes (college algebra, trig, cal1 and 2, stat), i would say try not to depend on kaplan so much but look at other sources that are out their and use them in conjunction with kaplan and take the classes i posted above. goodluck

 

[mikeaparker]

Phlame217 and Utsatwirler,

Could you double check your scores and reply to this message.

It was your two scores that the scaled score versus percentile did not match up/make sense. If the scores are scaled, this is done to set them all equal, so the percentiles should match the scaled scores for all takers on October 20, 2007... (Is anyone posting old stats maybe?)

Does that sound right to everyone?

Thanks,

Mike

 

[Phlame217]

typo on my part 415 - 76. Sorry.
