Hi i know that USC doesn't require the PCAT but they take it in consideration. Does anybody know if I have to send a PCAT transcript to the school in order for them to acknowledge that i took the test or just send it to pharmcas. And i was wondering if it is a smart thing to send my PCAT score of 78% composite. Any feedback will be helpful thanks.

I don't understand so they just want to see that you took the test?

USC doesn't require the score, but if you did well, they will give you some favourable consideration.

This is directly copy and pasted from http://www.usc.edu/dept/publications/cat2005/schools/pharmacy/professional.html:
Entrance Examination
The PCAT is not required but applicants who submit scores will be given favorable consideration in the application process. An interview is required for admission.

Sorry if this has been answered already, but I plan on submitting my USC application sometime in Mid september.... so they will see my PCAT score even after I have submitted my application. So I mean.. they will re-review my application and take my PCAT score into consideration if I take it in October?
