This
was the first book I began to study with. I'm not sure I'd recommend
this to use as your very first study guide but I would definitely
say put in the money to add this to your aresenal.
The
book is in what can be described as an outline form.
Ex:
Drug category
Expliantion/Defenition of category
Drug name Generic Dose/administration Key terms and definitions

I
used this review guide for preparation of PTCE exam. 500 questions
with complete explanation helped me lot in passing PTCB exam.
The questions are carbon copy of what I saw in exams. Its looks
like author knows what students going to face in the exam. 125
questions practice test similar questions which I found in my
exam. I think every student preparing for technician exam must
check out this reference guide. Every penny spends on this review
guide is wise.

The
quality of the content of this book == which I originally bought
for a friend == is superb. The author in simple and clear terms
makes pharmacy tech fundamentals a "bread and butter"
meal which should appeal to all readers especially those pursuing
Pharmacy Tech certification as well as all members of the health
care delivering professions. I strongly recommend the book for
everyone and wish more grease to the editor's elbow.

I studied for about 2 weeks prior to the test. I work part time in
a retail pharmacy as a technician and I've learned about drugs on
the job - no prior schooling.
I did extensive research on all the books available for the Technician
Board Exam and read other people's reviews. The reviews on this book
seemed the most promising. I tried to study in great detail the section
on drugs - even made index cards. All the drugs in this book are the
same used in retail pharmacy, so I had already known some information
on these drugs. And the math I use at work were also in - this book
and on the test.
However, I became overwhelmed trying to memorize all the detailed
information on all these drugs. So I made the decision to not focus
or waste my time on this section in the book. I changed my priority:
about one week and a half before the test - I only focused 100% on
the math portion.
I went through every Single problem in the book. I wrote out specific
formulas and unit conversions I must have memorized, and methods on
solving specific types of questions. Then I re-did each math problem
on my own. It seems like a lot of work. But in reality, it did not
take much time - many problems had the same method on how to be solved.
So after a couple of questions and recognizing how the question is
being asked you could tell right away which method is needed to solve
it. It was easy and effortless and I become TIME EFFICIENT.
When I took the test the majority was focused on hospital drugs and
math. Which was great since I decided not too waste my time studying
from the book's retail pharmacy drugs. And all the math questions
on the exam where all from the math section in the book - which I
had lots of practice on. My score was 734 (you
need a 650 to pass). I would recommend this book.
Remember each exam is different, just because mine was mostly hospital
pharmacy doesn't mean yours won't be retail pharmacy. But one section
is definitely consistent - the MATH. The math section had simple explanations
- of course with a few errors, but not too many. Only need 2 weeks
to study before the test. Remember to use common sense too, and eliminate
bad answer choices. Good Luck!
