Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Outstanding study guide... everything you need to know is in it!
This book includes everything you need to know for the PTCB exam and keeps it straight to the point. They don't bury you in a bunch of irrelevant crap like some other books I checked out first. I studied the book for a max of two hours before the exam and passed with flying colors. I'm glad I did my research before deciding to go with this book- I was quite pleased with the results!



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Horrible book with lack of information
This book is the worse book ever. It only has 50 pages to prepare you for the pharmacy technician and the rest are just exams. For those who have pharmacy experience, this book would be okay for you but for those like me who doesn't have any and would like to self-study, then it isn't for you. Honestly, the book is just a complete waste of money. It is only 170 pages or around there while the other books are over 400 pages. The book is also useless in preparing for the exam because I didn't pass ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Pharmacy Technician Certification Exam Review PTCB Book
This is a great book for someone who is planning on taking the PTCB. It does a wonderful job of preparing you. It makes things very simple and has correct information in the book. I would recommend also purchasing the book from this author that includes the pharmacy calculations. It makes passing the test easy and takes you through step by step. A++++ Books. I firmly believe anyone can pass the PTCB just by studying these books.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Helpful, but with errors.
This book offered many helpful pointers to a technician who hasn't done hospital work and needs some refreshing on mathematical procedures. But if you're turning to this book for Chapter 7's Top 200 Drugs, be prepared to learn incorrect information. There were strengths that weren't listed, incorrect strengths listed, and the use of the drugs was vague to questionable. The practice tests also differ from the actual certification test. I spent hours stressing and trying to memorize facts and dates ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - NOT the best out there!
As a pharmacy-tech instructor, I've used this series and am not impressed--neither were most of my students. A new book (PTCE prep book) by Mosby is available and is excellent. Good luck to all taking the new computerized PTCE!
