It's decent, but not very helpful.
The sample questions in this software are basically the same type of questions you will encounter in the real test, but they are just a little bit harder. Therefore, it does give you the practice you need before the real PCAT test. If you could do all or most of the problems correctly in the software, you should be able to do fine in the real test. However, this software does not come with answer explanations at all, which I think is an essential part of a good test preparation. Remember, in the real PCAT test, you only have 35 seconds in average to answer each biology and chemistry question. If you do all the calculations in chemistry part, you will never be able to finish it within such a short time. Therefore, you need to know the shortcuts to find the correct answers very quickly. A good PCAT preparation book or software is supposed to serve this purpose by teaching you all these smarter ways to do the problems; this software, however, obviously fails to do so. I would recommend Kaplan PCAT Prep instead of this one.





AWESOME!
Loved this review! only down fall was that it was on the computer when the original was on paper and it doesn't contain explainations at all. However, it WILL prepare you for the PCAT. I studied off and on for it and scored in top 10%. However, I did attend an MCAT review course a few months prior. These questions were harder than the real pcat but definietly felt prepared. Uesd this in conjunction with Peterson's Pcat success which gives explainations but easier questions. honestly use this, petersons, and try to get a really hard review course (such as an MCAT), and you'll do fine. Also you only get three tests and same questions on each test or section you do until you change the test.
new format and essays are there!
This is a great study deal for the $. I just received my cd for Christmas and have been using it this past week. I love it. It has the sentence completion, organic chemistry, calculus and essays. They even gave me a list of 75+ essay topics that were interesting to look through. Thank you, thank you. I use the study guide to help me with my text books. Not sure why someone would not recommend this other than they don't want you to get it. I'll still do good on the real test in January. This study cd helped.
Good, It helped me
I liked the CD ROM and sample tests. There were a ton of questions organized just like the real test. I could go through each section independently and review every question I missed. I used the topic that was given and studyied from my text book when I missed a question. I thought this was the best way. I had no problem finding the answers and I studyied the topic when I missed the topscore question. I guess that's why I did so well on the pcat. It timed me and had a neat feature that helped pace me through the test. The qestions were a little harder I thought, but that helped me find my weaknesses. I used it and my text books together and I did well on the real PCAT. Hope to see you in pharmacy school! Go wildcats!
Big Waste of Money
I just received my copy about an hour ago. Installed and tried out a couple of exams. There is no explanation for answers, no learning mode, etc. Little user control over exam administration. Has not been updated for new version of the PCAT. If you don't care about why an answer is correct or not, go to the official PCAT website and use their practice exam. At least the questions on the PCAT website are more complex.
