this is my 2nd year applying. Last year my PCAT was really low (63), so I studied and took it in June and got 85...much better. I also applied to more schools, so far I've interviewed at 1 school and got accepted. I have another interview next week and haven't gotten rejected from any, yet. I didn't have any pharmacy experience last year, so I got a job at a pharmacy last summer and have been working there. And b/c of my job I have great LOR's from my pharmacists..so it goes hand in hand. I applied kinda early...in early October.
