Notice that none of the California pharmacy schools currently require the PCAT. Since these pharmacy schools do not require the PCAT, there are usually more applicants (thus more competition). Without a PCAT score to weigh in on application, your grade point average is usually weighed more heavily than the pharmacy schools that require the PCAT.
