Pharmacy College Admission Test

The Pharmacy College Admission Test (PCAT) is a computer-based standardized test administered to prospective pharmacy school students by Pearson Education, Inc offered in January, July, September and October/November. The test is divided into six sections to be taken in approximately four and a half hours. These sections include Verbal Ability, Quantitative Ability, Biology, Chemistry, Reading Comprehension and Writing sections. The composite score is based on the multiple-choice sections, and can range from 200 – 600. There is no passing score; pharmacy schools set their own standards for acceptable scores. As with the MCAT, calculators are not allowed during the testing period and no penalty is given for incorrect answers.
