You can post your questions in the PCAT forum for more advice...

It depends on the individuals really... But I see most people who score high (80-90s) on the PCAT do the following:

-buy and practice with Dr. Collins for 1-3 months

-buy and test yourself with Pearson sample exams

-if it is difficult for you to score high in VA and vocab/analogy sections, try to score absurdly high in bio/chem/math to compensate

Regarding the minimum PCAT for you to get accepted, it depends on the schools you are applying and the rest of your app. 50-70s is generally considered good and competitive these days. Heck, People even got accepted with 10-20s into good/established schools. The later you apply, the lower the bar is likely going to be as more and more schools are opening.... I also recommend you to learn as much as you can about pharmacy, student debts for pharmacy schools, and job prospect before committing yourself into this field... 😉
