Hi guys, I have a quick question concerning PCAT success translating into success in PHARm school...hopefully i'll get in this app. cycle, although nothing is guaranteed I know. I got a 99 composite on the PCAT however, (and I am not trying to start anything) I thought it was very easy. Ill add the caveat that I had studied my a$$ off and used several test preps. I was so prepared that I didnt even have to work out many of the Quant questions b/c I had already done the questions will studying. Anyway my question is...does this success translate into succes in school since being a standardized exam it can be possible to do very well w/out actually grasping the concepts being tested. (im not suggesting thats my problem but I want to know from Pharm students who may not have gotten really high PCAT scores but kickin' a$$ in Pharm schools or 90+ PCAT scorers struggling...)Case in point: many people simply take the PCAT for "practice", knowing that many of these questions are repeated year after year.
I hope my question is clear, and thanks for any feed back
