They are the same. The PMQ used to be called the Premedical Student Questionnaire. The name was changed in 2008 to acknowledge the fact that people take the MCAT exam for various reasons—not just to get into medical school but also into programs for public health, dentistry, nursing, and others. The PMQ is interested in the responses of all MCAT exam registrants. If you are considering medicine, you are likely to see more questions pertaining to medicine.
