With studying for the past month or so for the July 12, 2019 PCAT, I haven't done anything for PharmCAS or started my personal statement. I emailed a professor about a LOR but she hasn't gotten back to me, and I figured I'd tell my pharmacist at work about doing it after the exam as well. My...

How long did it took for your PHARMCAS app to get verified? I submitted mine on December 27, 2017 and it finally reached COMPLETE status on monday after one of my transcripts finally arrived. Will taking so long hurt my chances at getting into pharmacy school??
So, in the personal statement, I'm wondering whether admission committees would want me to include the identifying details of my experiences.

I submitted my PharmCAS application on 12/8, it has verified as of 12/22, and was downloaded by the school last week. I was overlooking the application and realized that I made a mistake. I was a student teacher during the Fall 2017 semester, so I put that under experience. However, I forgot to...

My mother brought my siblings, and I to America to have access to some of the best education in the world. Not only was I expected to go to college, I was expected to be a doctor of some sort one day. Fast forward 24 years later, the youngest of four, I am the first person in my immediate family...

Hi everyone,
Is anyone having trouble with their PCAT scores appearing in PharmCAS? I took the test in July. My official scores only show when I download the PDF version of the application. However, the written section is blank. Also, when I go to the 'check status' tab of the application, it...

Hey everyone! I submitted my application on Monday and today my transcripts have been listed as "verified" but my application is still listed as "complete". Does anyone know how long it'll take for my entire application to be listed as "verified" and for it to be sent to the programs?
Thanks!
My official Jan 17 PCAT scores have been posted to pharmCAS, however, my writing score has not. Am I supposed to somehow send my writing score separately or will the unofficial score suffice??
This summer I took classes in both of my school's sessions. The grades have been posted for the first session and are seen on my official transcript, but the grades for the second session haven't been posted yet. My school didn't divide these on my transcript as "session 1" and "session 2"...
Last week I went to my university and requested my official transcript be sent to PharmCAS via their instructions. It's been about 6 business days and PharmCAS still says they haven't been received them. About how long should it take for them to arrive?

I've seen a few threads about this but can't seem to find a clear answer.
Where should you list your honors society memberships on pharmcas?
Part of me thinks that because they require a certain GPA and you don't do much once you're in them that they should go in the Honors section. The other...
