PCAT Information
PCAT Sample Test
PCAT Application Submission Deadlines
Geriatric Pharmacy
University of Georgia College of Pharmacy
Mercer University School of Pharmacy

Mercer requires all applicants to take the PCAT. For a GPA of less than 3.5 the composite PCAT percentile score must be above 70. They make use of the percentile scores rather than the raw scores.

The University of Georgia is more strict. Every student must take the PCAT and their composite score must not be below 80 percentile. If any of the 5 test section scores falls below 20 percentile, the student will not be considered for admission.
