I took the pcat in june and when i signed up for it i choose 3 schools to have my scores sent to, but when i saw some of the other students addmission tickets they had only selected PHARMCAS.

Any idea of what will happen?

If your three designated schools were PharmCAS schools, what happened was that you wasted three designations when you only needed one, PharmCAS.

You were supposed to designate PharmCAS as a recipient if you were applying to PharmCAS schools. That way, PharmCAS would've gotten the scores and distributed them to all your designated PharmCAS schools.😉

You can just request a score report be sent to PharmCAS even after you get your score report. You'll have to wait a while, but you aren't doomed.

Watch the directions from the schools you are applying to. Some PHARMCAS schools that require the PCAT require your PCAT score be submitted to PHARMCAS and seperately submitted to the school. I think Shenandoah and Minnesota might be 2 of these schools.

So if i dont send the score to pharmcas does that mean the school will not accept them?

Yup, I forget which schools have this policy though. Shenandoah isn't one of them though anymore

Many schools indicated that they accept scores through PharmCAS only. Though rare and odd situations may be exceptions, sending through PharmCAS is the way to go.
