Great workbook to study for PTCB exam when used in conjunction with textbook

I studied for my PTCB national certification exam using this workbook and the textbook "The Pharmacy Technician, 3rd ed" by Morton Publishing. Although the textbook was helpful, this workbook offered many additional study problems that complemented the textbook. The workbook offers a variety of problems, presented in a slew of different ways so you can verify your understanding of the various subjects. Types of different questions include true/false, fill in the blank, matching problems, mathematical conversion exercises and more. I think if you purchased just the workbook, some of the concepts might be confusing if you'd never been exposed to them before. However, as a supplement to the textbook, it is very effective. These books definitely helped me pass my exam on the first try and I highly recommend this workbook.

Excellent Review

The book is an excellent guide to obtaining a CPhT, it really does review all the pharmacy technician work and is repetitive enough to be informational but not repetitive enough to be annoying. I would recommend this workbook to anyone.

This book is a perfect tool for success !

This book is really helpful for a preparation for the National Examination given by the Pharmacy Technicians Certification Board. It provides over 800 exercises and problems for self testing,and hundreds of key concepts and terms. Answers are included in the back of the book.It also contains a practice exam at the back of the book in the same "choose the best answer" format of the National Examination for certification.I had several of those exactly the same problems on my Exam, and I got a certificate !

Excellent Pharmacy Tech Exam Review Workbook

This is an excellent workbook for the PTCB exam. The examples are clear and they don't expect you to already know medical terminology. The vocabulary is clearly explained. There could have been more practice math problems, though. However, be aware that it is not a comprehensive textbook. You'll also need to purchase the textbook that goes with it, The Pharmacy Technician by Shrewabury, Medina, Cordiale et al. They're both excellent books. Together, they make a complete and understandable review guide to the PTCB exam.
