PCAT scores

So what is considered a ridiculously high score? What is the highest composite possible, and what is the highest that anyone knows of anyone getting? Always curious...

I got a 97 composite score. I've heard of people scoring 99, which I would assume is the highest score possible.

I had a 98 composite score. So far, it hasn't done me much good. I have a 3.8 GPA, too. The down side is that I have no pharmacy experience. I had an interview and they couldn't see why I wanted to go into pharmacy when I haven't had any real exposure to it.

I figured that 99 percent was the highest, but I meant the raw score ... can people score 300? Is that unheard of?

I suppose it is possible. The percentile to the scaled score is based on how people did on specific sections. For instance, I have a 270 on verbal which translates to 98%, a 262 on biology which is 98%, but my composite is only 244 which is also 98%.

I got a 94%. I hope thats good but alot of people hear do alot better. I assume there are people that are getting the lower scores.

94% is definitely good. At one of the schools I applied to the average score for accepted applicants is in the 70-75% range.

I got a 99, composite was 249. I scored 306 on Biology which was a 99 also. Is anyone applying to Florida?
