Someone told me that I can take either PCAT or GRE for pharmacy schools? Is it right?

I doubt that schools will accept GRE's but who knows!!!

But official one is PCAT for sure..

Sorry, no new info from my side.

I have never heard of pharmacy schools accepting the GRE. Just like I've never heard of graduate schools accepting the PCAT.

Pharmacology grad programs require a GRE, but PCAT is the standard for pharmacy schools if the school elects to use a test at all (aside from the 0+6 schools that need ACT/SAT).

The GRE is not a substitute for the PCAT, what school are you interested in applying to?

Some schools accept the MCAT and some don't require the PCAT at all. I have never heard of one that accepts the GRE. But I could be wrong!

pharm schools don't accept the MCAT

MCAT is for "Medical" school - why would they accept the PCAT "Pharmacy"?

Well if its good enough for med school it should be more then enough for pharm school, right?? 😀
