Okay well, I am one of those people with a high GPA (Cumm - 3.9 Science - 4.0) but I have a low PCAT score (30). Will the schools take into consideration that I haven't taken all the science and bio classes taken needed to do well on the PCAT? I am barely taking Ochem I and I still need Ochem 2, microbiology, and bio chem...

you took some really rigorous classes to prepare for the pcat like gen chem and gen bio

Good one. Some of us are applying after 2 years of school. Sorry I didn't do 6 years of undergrad and finally realize I wanted to do pharmacy. Doucher

someone is getting a little defensive, you just sound really prepared for pharmacy school with such a high pcat score. 30 is up there

I don't know what the hell is going on here. Chill out.

anyways, my answer will be no. They will just look at your PCAT score..not background. I suggest you to retake.. with collins and kaplan review. or just apply non-pcat school

Unfortunately, I don't think that schools will take that into consideration at all.

In fact, they may wonder why you took the PCAT without taking all of the pre-reqs. Students can do well without taking all of the pre-reqs, but I would imagine that the Chemistry and the Biology section would be incredibly tough without OChem, Anatomy, and Microbiology.

What pre-reqs have you taken up to this point?

You really need to retake the PCAT.
