I know I can do the PCAT infinite times but how many times can I do it before the schools looks down upon it ?( if they look down upon it)

Does the school care how many times I do it?( I'm talking about university of Toronto in particular)

Thanks.

It depends on the school. If it isn't explicitly stated on their website I'd call their office and inquire. Most are ~5 or so times. Your secondary question also depends on the school. Most do not like to see multiple goes at the exam especially if you score lower on your subsequent retakes. I'm sure someone will pop in here soon enough with "but i gotz in on me firthteenth tri!" so I'm sure you can take it 10000 times and get in somewhere. As far as UofT I would pop over to their website and spend some time scouring it. Best to not rely on SDN forums for important information like that.
 
so i emailed them on how many times to take the pcat and this is what they said
"Applicants may write the PCAT up to 5 times. When an applicant writes the PCAT more than once then only their single best overall test result is used for their application. There is no disadvantage to writing the PCAT more than once."

what do you guys think?
