excellent The book is thorough, logical in sequence, and provides a good range of things one might get tested on, in more than one way. Excellent for those with no prior knowledge of the subject, and still interesting for those who do. | ||
The Book!!! I studied from this book alone for two weeks and passed the exam on my first try. | ||
Calling all wanna-be Pharm Techs. I really dig this book. Lots of great information and told in a way that doesn't make me want to take a nap every time I open it up. I'm using this to study for the national test and I'm feeling a lot more confident about certification than I would be without it. | ||
Great! I have really enjoyed this book, and it has helped me learned a lot. Verying interesting which helps you learn and has a lot of useful information! Highly recommend. | ||
Good Foundation The time had come for a mid-life career change, and I have settled upon pursuing a PharmD from scratch. Part of the plan was to get a part-time job in a pharmacy, while I complete my pre-requisites. Passing the PTCB's certification exam made perfect sense. Since I have never worked in a pharmacy, I chose "The Pharmact Technician" and its workbook (sold separately)as my basis for study. After a solid two weeks of studying three or four hours a day, I took the exam and passed on the first try. I got an 840 out of 900, and the only weakness that I had was with some of the drugs. There were four questions I had to absolutely guess on. The book is logically layed out, making it easy to build upon the knowledge aquired in previous chapters. It includes a section on the "Top 200" drugs, and this is the hardest section because it is almost 100% memorization, unless you work in a pharmacy. I used all of the practice quizzes to make sure I had a solid understanding of the material. The workbook (sold separately) was invaluable by adding more quizzes and a couple of practice exams. I would highly recommend both books. | ||
