PCAT Score Recipients

Hello.
I am registering to take my PCAT for the first time in January as a Junior. While registering, I am asked for schools I want to be recipients of my PCAT scores. Not only is this my first time taking it so I'm sure my grade will be low, I'm also not sure what schools I want to apply to.
So should I just try and pick some schools I may apply to and send to them, send them to PharmCAS, or send to no one?
I'm also not registered for PharmCAS yet, so should I set up a account now ?
Thank you!

Don't make a pharmcas account until next cycle opens june 1st. Have them sent to pharmcas and pick two schools. Do some research and see if there are any schools you want to apply to that don't use pharmcas

Thank you! But now with PharmCAS, it will send my scores to all my schools at once? My school deadlines range from November - March, what if I want to take the PCAT again in January? Is there a way to have my January scores sent to only my schools whose deadlines haven't passed by then?

No. All pcat scores are added to your application. Schools you are applying to have access as soon as they are added

What if I take it after my school's deadline and I've already sent in my applications?

You need to ask schools if they will consider January pcat scores. A lot won't
