A variety of companies offer PCAT guides, including Kaplan, Barron's, and Mometrix. You can research them to find out which guide sounds best for you and your learning style. Each guide costs money, but many students find them helpful. You will want to make sure you get the latest edition of whatever test prep guide you use. The content of the PCAT changes periodically, so if you use an older edition it might be out of date. Test prep guides usually review the science and math material that you will need to know for the exam, so they can be especially effective if you feel you need to relearn or review material from courses that you may have forgotten. You can take PCAT prep courses on many college campuses. These are usually offered by test-prep companies like Kaplan and available only for a fee. In addition to helping you understand the material on the PCAT, these courses teach test-taking strategies that many find effective. You can find study groups through social networking sites, like Facebook, or relevant forums on sites like studentdoctor.net. Study groups can provide you with some community and structure while you prepare, and your peers may be able to help you understand concepts you're having trouble with. You can talk to someone you know personally or reach out to online communities. These people can tell what strategies worked for them on the day of the test. There are a number of online forums where people discuss the PCAT on sites like studentdoctor.net. On these forums you can pose specific questions to people who have taken the test. If you have taken college courses relevant to the PCAT, your notes from them can be a great way to refresh your understanding of the topics you'll need to know for the test. The biology section of the test focuses on general biology, microbiology, and human anatomy and physiology. If you have taken courses that focus on these, be sure to review those notes carefully. For the chemistry section, you'll want to refresh your knowledge of general chemistry, organic chemistry, and basic biochemistry processes. When you study for the match section, you will want to make sure to review what you know about basic math, algebra, probability and statistics, precalculus, and calculus. You can find a lot of the information you would learn in college classes in other sources. Coursera, for instance, offers a wide variety of free online lecture courses that you can take. As lecture classes cover a broader range of material than the PCAT will, you should focus on watching lectures that address specific topics you need to learn more about, like a specific aspect of organic chemistry. You should not feel like you have to watch all the lectures for any one course. Just choose the ones that seem most useful for your specific needs. You can also find out what textbooks are commonly used to teach the topics covered by the PCAT by looking at course syllabi, which you can often find on university websites. The more tests you take, the more comfortable you will feel on the day of the test. You will also be able to develop strategies that help you manage the time constraints of the test effectively. Make sure you time yourself while taking practice tests. You want to simulate the experience of taking the official test. You should take a practice test roughly once a week throughout studying, but several times a week in the 2-3 weeks leading up to the test.
