An Evaluation of the Pharmacy College Admissions Test as a Tool for Pharmacy College Admissions Committees.
Kelley, Katherine A.; Secnik, Kristina; Boye, Mark E.
American Journal of Pharmaceutical Education, v65 n3 p225-30 Fall 2001
Investigated the capacity of the Pharmacy College Admissions Test (PCAT) to predict success in pharmacy school. Found demographic differences in PCAT scores, and that the PCAT used in combination with pre-pharmacy grade point average is meaningful in assessing applicants to pharmacy school; applicants with PCAT composite percentile scores below 40 should be given particularly careful attention.
