Check out the profiles of the schools you intend to apply to on the PharmCas website. I've seen some schools with no limit, and some schools with up to 5 years or less.

I think I've seen 5 years before, I'd contact the school you're applying to and ask them specifically.

I had a hard time with this issue. I scored in the 91st percentile on the PCAT in 2003. I had a hard time finding schools that would accept scores that old and from before the test changed. I did retake them in Jan but I had most of my interview invites before the new scores came out. Some schools do have a 5 year rule. For the other schools, it seemed like just a formality.

Hello, those of who preparing PCAT, I have some questions to ask.

Is it test by computer like GRE ? or is it like paper test?

and Can I cancel my score after exam if I want to?

Because I know GRE and DAT, I can cancel my score at the end of the test.

Thank you in advance. Good luck with your studying.

The maximum I've seen is five years unless the school doesn't care at all. However, many would like scores that are more recent like two years ago. It varies per school so it's best to keep track of the differences between schools.
