I know how you feel, just try to go over as much as you can, and try your best. It's impossible to know EVERYTHING about bio, math..well, then again... i dunno..wish u the best!

How did you do in your Pre-Req classes? Honestly if you have taken them recently and retained at least the important stuff then you really don't need to study much at all. I've taken my pre-reqs spread over the last 8 years and didn't even have Bio II or ANY Organic Chem before I took it in August. Not too mention I'm like the worst studier in history so maybe put like a TOTAL of 8-10 hours going back and refreshing my memory, and still somehow managed a 72 composite. So if you have had your pre-reqs recently and with all of that studying you should be perfectly fine. So definitely just try to relax because if you're too stressed out then that might be the thing that kills you. One big thing about the PCAT is that it tests your ability to work under pressure.

i am in the same situation studying for about 2 months for 5 hours a day..only sections i am confident about is bio and chem... i am worried about reading and math(i know that my verbal score is going to be 50 no matter what )....so the next two days i will do two reading practice test a day and go over the math...hopefully it will help me to get a respectable score on those sections

I would say don't get stressed out about it (I know, hard to do if you suffer from test anxiety). People perform a lot worse under stress. Try not to study on Friday or Saturday morning(what are all those people with their giant books learning in the half hour before the test anyways??). Just relax. No matter what happens during the test, don't let the anxiety get to you.
