You have four-and-a-half hours to complete the test. The scores for each multiple-choice section are added together to calculate your composite score. As such, you should make sure to answer every question. If you get stuck on one question, move onto the next one and return to the difficult question later.  If you’ve done lots of practice tests, you should have an idea of how much time you need to spend on each question. Don’t leave any answers blank. If you plan to come back to a question later, make a note of it so you don’t forget to at least guess on the question when you’re almost out of time. If you don’t know the answer to a PCAT question, you can still get to the right answer by eliminating the wrong ones. .  Start by trying to eliminate the two most obviously wrong answers. This will leave you with two potentially correct answers. Next, re-read the question and see if one of the two possible answers jumps out at you. If not, take a guess. If you successfully eliminated two wrong answers, you’ve at least increased your chances of getting the right answer from one-in-four to one-in-two. Most students will finish the test in less than four-and-a-half-hours. If you need to use the bathroom, do so—and if you simply need to get up to stretch your legs, take a bathroom break. Forcing yourself to stay in your seat for the full test-time will only make you feel stressed and uncomfortable.

For instance, the number 0.4444 has a repeating decimal of 4. It is a basic repeating decimal in the sense that there's no non-repeating portion to the decimal number. Count how many repeating digits there are in the pattern.  Once your equation is written, you will multiply it by 10^y, where y equals the number of repeating digits in the pattern.  In the example of 0.4444, there is one digit that repeats, so you will multiply the equation by 10^1. For a repeating decimal of 0.4545, there are two digits that repeat, and you would, therefore, multiply your equation by 10^2. For three repeating digits, multiply by 10^3, etc. Write it out so that x equals the original number.  In this instance, the equation is x = 0.4444. Since there’s only one digit in the repeating decimal, multiply the equation by 10^1 (which equals 10).  In the example where x = 0.4444, then 10x = 4.4444. With the example x = 0.4545, there are two repeating digits, so you multiply both sides of the equation by 10^2 (which equals 100), giving you 100x = 45.4545. You accomplish this by subtracting x from 10x. Remember that whatever you do to one side of the equation must be done to the other, so:  10x – 1x = 4.4444 – 0.4444 On the left side, you have10x - 1x = 9x. On the right side, you have 4.4444 – 0.4444 = 4 Therefore, 9x = 4 Once you know what 9x equals, you can determine what x equals by dividing both sides of the equation by 9:  On the left side of the equation you have 9x ÷ 9 = x. On the right side of the equation you have 4/9  Therefore, x = 4/9, and the repeating decimal 0.4444 can be written as the fraction 4/9. Put the fraction in its simplest form (if applicable) by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor. In the example of 4/9, that is the simplest form.

When setting up your tent, it's important to put a barrier in between the ground and the bottom of your tent to protect it from gathering moisture. A good-quality plastic or vinyl tarp should accompany any tent. Fold the tarp into the relative shape of the tent, but slightly smaller. You don't want any part of the tarp to hang out beyond the edge of the tent, otherwise it'll collect water underneath in case it rains. Fold up longer edges and tuck them under the tent.
