Congrat and good luck!I just received an interview invite for October 10th!!!!
I took most of my pre-reqs at Amarillo College. I'm a very active volunteer for Hospice, CASA, and Alzheimer's Association. I have approximately 325 volunteer hours.
This is my second PCAT and I'm not super thrilled with the results
VA: 437/94
Bio: 414/69
RC: 405/60
QA: 393/33 (I'm very good at math so not sure what I was doing here)
Chem: 412/68
Comp: 412/72
Yes, i meant Pharmcas.8/12 I think. I'm assuming you mean verified by pharmcas.
I didn't really study much for the verbal, but Kaplan gave me some good strategies. Kaplan was the only book I used and it was a mistake especially for the math portion.wow ..good job on the verbal...how did u prepare for the verbal ? did u guys have to show proof that you volunteered for those hours ? am just curious because i have volunteered in general but sometimes i did not sign in thats why I am asking ... am retake my pcat in october ...if u dont mind what was ur first pcat composite .thanks

My first one was 52, but that was before I had Bio, Ochem, micro, and stats.
I'm scheduled to take it a third time in October.
I don't know if I'll have to prove those hours. I hope not, because that would take a lot of gathering of paperwork.
I wish I felt the same. Until I get that acceptance letter, I don't think I'll be satisfied with that score. UHCOP is truly the only school I want to consider and if they defer me to regular decision, I want to have a better score.Honestly if u have already been called for interview then i dont think u should retake the pcat ....

UH for ED, but if they defer me, I'll probably apply to tech and tsu. What about you? Which schools are you applying to?ur right... so u are only applying to uh ? what about texas tech and tsu ?
goodluck..an sure u can make a better score if u retake 🙂

Printed out the supplemental app and personally turned it in at the SR2 building.I have a question for the people who have turned in their supplemental app. What did you do when you filled it out, did you do it online? Or did you print it out, fill it out and email it to them? Because I was going to do the first, but whenever I clicked submit, it wouldn't go through...
Also, did you guys send AP scores to UH, because I'm not sure if I need to do that

Is anyone else having trouble saving the pre-interview questions as a PDF file?

Also, for interview day, can anyone recommend public transportation from Kingwood to TMC? I know that Houston has a rail system, but I'm not sure how far out it goes. I'm trying to avoid renting a car and I'm staying with a friend in Kingwood.
Thank you very much! I may just rent a car if it takes that long.
My questionnaire is due tomorrow by 3:00 pm.
I bought a very nice business pant suit to wear.
That's weird! I wonder why ours were due on different days. I received mine on Monday the 22nd.
Thank you so much for your help! I really appreciate it. I can't wait to meet everyone!
I hope I can get accepted to University of Houston next Fall....my stats aren't too good but I'm still hoping to get lucky. I know they are big on in state applicants as well. I'm applying from Florida.
PCAT=78% Writing 4
GPA Overall 3.11
Science and Math GPA 2.6
Four letters of recommendation (3 from pharmacists)
Work experience and volunteering
You guys think I could get an interview???
Did you get a confirmation email that they received your pre-interview documents? I'm panicking that they won't be able to open it and read it.
No I never got a confirmation email from them and I turned mine in on Wednesday the 24th.Did you get a confirmation email that they received your pre-interview documents? I'm panicking that they won't be able to open it and read it.
They sent me a confirmation email on the 26th ( I sent mine on the 24th, it was due 25th). I was also afraid they wouldn't be able to read it so I also sent it to my brother who has a PC and said he could open and read it.
It basically said thank you for sending it and they'll give it to the interviewers. Earlier that day I got the email with the arrival time.
I'm going to be honest here: your math and science GPA is pretty low for UH. Everything else is pretty much on target. If you could bring that up by retaking classes you didn't do well in, then you would have a good shot at an interview! If you are applying next fall for entrance in 2016, you still have a whole year and half to bring that up. UH averages any repeated classes so if let's say you got a C in orgo 2, then retook and got an A, it averages out to a B which would improve that GPA a lot!!! Keep up the volunteering and pharmacy work experience because UH heavily looks at that on top of PCAT and GPA. Your PCAT is pretty good so no worries there. And your overall GPA is good too.
Good Luck!
Another question I have is, say you get accepted to UH or any other Pharmacy school....how long do you have to accept their offer and make a payment before they move on to another candidate?
