I am a little confused about sending the transcript to three schools when you register.....

================
Includes Official Transcripts sent to three recipients that you specify at registration
If you do not designate all three recipients at the time you register or you wish
to change your recipients after you submit your registration, you must pay the
Additional Transcript Fee for each transcript requested .
Note: If you are designating a PharmCAS school, please choose code 0104 . Please
confirm with your selected school recipients to see if they are a PharmCAS member
============


When you do this do you choose 2 non pharmcas and just 1 pharmcas? I obviously want my score to go to pharmcas....

(Also, where do you get your PCAT CID? Is this when you register for the PCAT?)

Hi, You are correct. You should choose PharmCAS for one of them. If you do that, you do not need to add schools that use PharmCAS, because PharmCAS will send your PCAT scores to the schools, so you can then add 2 schools that do not use PharmCAS. As for your CID, I remember I had to go to the PCAT website to find it after I registered. I just found the following info on the PCAT website: Should you need to obtain your Candidate Identification number (CID), please login to the PCAT site with your user id. Your CID will be displayed on your “My Profile” page near your name in the Account Information section. Please note that there is always a chance that a candidate has just created a login and there is not test data associated which will then be displayed as “Unassigned”.

Thank you! For some reason I thought they were saying you needed to enter a SPECIFIC PharmCas school 😀
