Just took mine last Wednesday and passed !!!! Don’t be scared you guys!!! It’s not a difficult test to pass! Pro tip: read each question CAREFULLY!! Don’t stress about it!! That only makes it worse and you’ll psyche yourself out!! Right down all of the conversions you can on your paper at the start of the test so you don’t forget during the test! And really try to study brand and generic, high alert meds, drug interactions and side effects and also stability

I took the PTCB exam two weeks ago, I passed with a score of 1584 🥳! It was apart of my 2020 personal development goal for work and a requirement for my new position. I studied proportions, allegations, conversions and the metric for the math portion and used free apps and online quizzes for the basic knowledge. I chose the proctored online version which was a very easy process. Good luck to everyone!!
@RosaPerez 4 жыл бұрын
That’s awesome Nate! I agree with you those are all of the topics I studied as well and I made sure to look at the guide for anything else that I didn’t completely understand such as controls and classes of controls! I didn’t get a chance to take a proctored online exam because I took my exam in February of this year so I would love to hear about your experience taking the online portion as I’m sure that’s way different than taking it at a testing center! Thanks for sharing your experience and I’m so glad that you passed! 🤗

Nastii Nate omg thank you for this comment!! congratulations!! I’m taking it online at home myself in 2 weeks.. what do you feel the new exam was based heavily on what subjects?? Brand/Generic? Drug Interactions? Storage? SIG? Conversions? .. Laws/Regulations? Reimbursement?
@RosaPerez 4 жыл бұрын
Hi there! I feel like the new exam focused a lot on laws and regulations, conversions, insulin dosages, amoxicillin dosages, and some on generic and brand names! I hope this helps!
@nastiinate6287 4 жыл бұрын
The new exam is a representation of the knowledge a seasoned retail technician should have. The metric system, proportions and allegations are important to know. You may get 5 math questions or 10 so don’t skip the math! Study only federal laws, this a national test. Study drug interactions, storage, brand/generic, SIGs, etc. They no longer have sterile compounding questions because there is now a separate exam for that. Also brush up on ISMP sound alike/look alike list. Taking the PeasonVue practice exam was also very helpful, it’s layout is exactly like the proctored exam. I must have had an easier version of the exam because there were only 4 questions out of 90 that I had no knowledge on. Good luck!

QUESTION--- I took my exam today after watching your vid and getting your recommended resources. My preliminary result is PASS! Couldn't be more excited. But ONE QUESTION: How accurate is the preliminary score when you take the PTCB at home?! I mean, I can only imagine it being changed to a not pass if they watch back my webcam footage and see an issue but I absolutely did nothing against policy. Should I celebrate or is it too soon??? Do they ever change a 'pass' to a 'no pass' ???

Make sure to take the exam when you are completely ready and study a lot before hand. Thank you I appreciate it. For the math I recommend tongue go with your style of studying how you think you will remember it best. For me it meant leaving off the math until the last minute so I don’t forget it but if you’re a person who can learn and will retain information and needs to go over it more to understand it I say do as many practice problems until you can do them without any assistance.

@RosaPerez 3 жыл бұрын
Hi there! Make sure to print out the PTCB guide and use that to help you in studying. If you use the book I talk about in the video it makes the process easier as the chapters correlate with the guide. If you are using your own notes make sure they go along with the guide to aid in your studying. Yes that would be a good idea as long as you are reviewing a good amount each day. If you don't feel very confident or you don't have much work experience in the Pharmacy I say that at least a month is necessary in order to pass. If you do, and do not want to rush or be overwhelmed, take at least 2 weeks to study for the exam. :) I wish you the best of luck and let me know if you have any more questions!

The new exam is a representation of the knowledge a seasoned retail technician should have. The metric system, proportions and allegations are important to know. You may get 5 math questions or 10 so don’t skip the math! Study only federal laws, this a national test. Study drug interactions, storage, brand/generic, SIGs, etc. They no longer have sterile compounding questions because there is now a separate exam for that. Also brush up on ISMP sound alike/look alike list. Good luck on your exam!

Hi Rosa i have been BINGE watching all your pharmacy tech videos and i LOVE them!!! As of right now i am a senior in high school and i am taking my pharmacy tech class from there. there is some material that i am really having a hard time and that is remembering the medications and their names. i noticed that you had a list and i was curios as to where you got your list of medications or if you made it yourself. i would really LOVE to know
@RosaPerez 3 жыл бұрын
Thank you so much Stevie! I appreciate the support so much! You can find the list of the top 200 drugs online :) yes it can be confusing and difficult to remember but I would associate the drugs with the types of health issues they are used to treat! That would help me out the most!

Hi there! I say you should take a look at the new and current PTCB Guide online I have it linked in my video as well if you can’t find it online. See if the topics correspond with the outline and if they do I don’t think you should invest your money in a new book. Most of the time new addition of books don’t really have any major changes but if you do feel more comfortable getting another book I know they have it on Amazon for about $40. That’s my advice to you double check the book you have with the current guide and as long as everything looks like it corresponds you should be OK to use it. Please let me know if you have any other questions!

I'm gonna save up the money from my gas station job to pay for certification out of pocket The reason is because I'm having trouble actually getting a job in pharmacy tech is because I'm awkward in job interviews. I always get fired from jobs for impulsivity issues/saying inappropriate things out loud. I have mental health issues, which is why I became interested in pharmacology. I'm also scared about the 9-5 thing because last time I had a 9-5 my sleep schedule wouldn't adjust no matter how hard I tried and I ended up getting 3 hours a night for like 8 months..... So now I work an afternoon shift and it's Greta but it's minimum wage....

I was one for two years when I took my exam so I had a lot of prior knowledge which helped me during my studying too. Most of it was review but I know that’s not the case for most people.
