Hey yall! So I've been studying for the July 10th PCAT since May. I have been taking the Kaplan PCAT course and using Dr.Collins (2011-2012) for extra practice problems. I've taken two Pearson Practice tests (first one untimed with a Comp: 45-65% & 2nd test timed Comp: 65-85%). I feel very confident, but I keep doubting myself because this will be my 3rd time taking the PCAT (due to horrible test anxiety). I've read some old "Pearson Practice Test vs. Actual PCAT" posts, but I've noticed that there are very mixed opinions on how similar the two are. I plan on taking the third practice test this Friday. How similar, in difficulty, were the Pearson Practice tests in comparison to the actual PCAT this past year? Also, I was told to know how birth control, blood pressure, and cholesterol medicine works. Are the Biology questions on the actual PCAT more specific than those asked on the Pearson Practice test? Are there any more common diseases,etc. I should know that maybe Dr.Collins or Kaplan didn't cover or am I overthinking? lol
