I used Kaplan book. I also bought the PCAT Pearson practice test. I’m scared of the Quantitive Reasoning Session. Anyway, let’s try our best. Hope to hear good news!!! Good luck!!!

I used a kaplan practice test and it was like 5 times easier than that lol. A lot of the bio section was pretty straightforward (just know your hormones) and same for the chemistry. you can eliminate usually 2 answers pretty easily sometimes 3
How many passages were there in the biology and chemistry passages? Because the practice exams had 6

Congrat! It’s a super high score. You did such a great job. I just expect I can get 70. Hopefully, It will be easy for me too. Thanks for sharing!
Eh pretty similar to the practice
There were a lot but they were more passages that you could find the answer in, rather than simply having to know certain material
Took mine the 7th
Got a 99 PR!
96 BIO
99 Chem
99 Reading
98 Quant
I thought the Chem section was a ton easier than the Pearson Practice Tests. The other sections felt equal.
Only used Collins of which I used every Chem Practice Test and about ~6 tests for Bio and Math. Reading I realized cannot be improved just through practice tests, so I only took one of their tests to get a feel. Bought all three Pearson Tests, only went through 8 and 9. Was extremely spooked by the Chem sections but actual test toned it down.
