PCAT is the Pharmacy College Admission Test. Because this test measures your scientific knowledge and general aptitude, you must be well prepared. Talk to the interviewer about the ways that you prepared for the PCAT. Perhaps you set a study schedule for yourself or hired a tutor. Whichever methods you chose, show the interviewers your dedication and willingness to put in the effort required to succeed in this pharmacy program.
