Primary ciliary dyskinesia is a disorder characterized by chronic respiratory tract infections, abnormally positioned internal organs, and the inability to have children (infertility). The signs and symptoms of this condition are caused by abnormal cilia and flagella.
Apart from the writing sections, all the five sections contain a total of 48 questions. Out of these 48 questions, 40 contribute towards the score in PCAT, while the remaining 8 questions are experimental questions that are not scored. Out of the two writing sections, one section is for experimentation.
Because of the importance and difficulty of the PCAT, itâs strongly advised to get a good study guide and spend some serious time preparing for the exam. StudyGuideZone.com offers an exclusive free, downloadable PCAT study guide to the Internet community for the PCAT test. The guide is in PDF format, so youâll need Adobeâs free Reader (already installed on most computers) to view it.
