PharmCAS PCAT scores question

Hi, I have a couple of questions regarding how PharmCAS receives and sends PCAT scores.

First, I took the PCAT twice, the first time in June, the second time in August, but when I registered for the PCAT in June, I didn't select PharmCAS as one of the places to send the scores. I did select PharmCAS the second time however, and I just got my scores in the mail. However, I'm don't think it shows up on my PharmCAS application page. In the section under Test scores, it just asks for a date, and so I selected the August as a date. How do I know if my PharmCAS application has the test scores or not?

Secondly, I think I may actually want to send my first test score instead of my second, so I know I have to ask for the PCAT scores to be sent to PharmCAS again for the June one. However, when I go to the payment page, it says I'm sending both scores to PharmCAS. Is there a way to just have them send only the June one, since I already selected for the August PCAT score to be sent to PharmCAS when I initially registered? Also, if I want PharmCAS to send only the June score and not the August score, should I just select June as the test date in the PharmCAS Test scores section?

I'm just a little unsure of the whole PharmCAS system, so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I don't remember how you tell if PharmCAS got your PCAT scores, but I think it is on there somewhere. You can always give PharmCAS a call or e-mail.

When your PCAT scores are sent from Pearson's to PharmCAS all your scores will be sent. PharmCAS sends all your PCAT scores to the schools you apply to.

All pcat scores within the past five years will appear on your pcat score record. Therefore, if you had requested for the most recent score to be sent to pharmcas, your previous score would be included also.
