Basically I've got the PCAT coming up in October and the nervousness and anxiety are already starting to settle in. I found similar posts on what to study, but honestly, the posts I have read are different from the advice given to me from grad students that I have talked to and they are very broad. I work in a pharmacy and we have interns and grad students on their rotations(mainly from Midwestern, Duke, and Creighton), so I can say that I have received input from many people since we have two new students in there every two weeks.
Anyways, what I was told was that if your gpa is high, which I would consider to be over 3.8, there isn't really a need to study. Obviously you should look over some practice exams and maybe skim through a review book. I just want to know what everybody thinks if it is enough to just pick up a Kaplan review book and just study that? My science gpa is a 4.0 and my cumulative is a 3.94 so I'm not too worried and I feel like I know the material on the PCAT well enough already. This is my first post and a very helpful site and any input on the subject would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
