Dear quique911 (),

This has to be one of the BEST thank you letters I have ever had. You are going

to make a GREAT pharmacist because you see the variance that background and

education makes in addition to passing this PTCB exam. Because of this your

expectations of the technicians that you will hire or work with or possibly

train will be REAL and you will reflect this in your training and treatment of

them.

I am so jazzed to learn that someone found EVERYTHING on this site that they

needed to pass the exam. I am sure there is something missing, but it does hit

about 90% of what I know is on the exam. However I have always recommended a

study book as well sot hat there would be something tangilble in front whenone

is studying and itis for tactile learners , of which many technicians are.

Your insight and acknowledgement the tact that passing this one exam does not

a technician make, speaks volumes once again that classroom education along with

mock labs and real life on the job training is the KEY and that we need to

implement it NOW.

THANK YOU for your acknowledgement of the technicians WITH experience and

knowledge above and beyond what this exam can test for and possess.

Your respectful attitude towards other technicians speaks well of your

character.

PLEASE stay in touch and keep us posted. Should you NOT get accepted at this

time in pharm school, please contact me. I am interested in a project with you.

Thank you,

Everyone!

This site is so awesome! Thanks to the many tutorials and wealth of

information found here I successfully passed my September PTCB test. I

passed the PTCB test without any study aids except for THIS website!

And best of all it was all free!

A little bit of a background. I am actually applying to pharmacy

school this year and I thought that getting certified would look great

on my application. I am currently working as a clerk at CVS pharmacy

and volunteering at the inpatient pharmacy at a VA hospital. I first

started working and volunteering at the pharmacies about 3 months ago.

Even though I passed the exam, I am by no means currently up to the

caliber of many other highly skilled and properly trained pharmacy

techs that I know. My esteemed colleagues have a great breadth of

knowledge of pharmacy and I have the utmost respect for them. If I do

no get into school this year I plan to gain more experience as a tech

and apply again next year.

Regarding the exam, I seriously thought I failed when I walked out of

the room. I believe my brief pharmacy experience and science

background helped out a bit. But the thing that truly helped me the

most was this website. Thank you Jeanetta and all the many

contributors for providing such an excellent resource! Keep up the

great work!

Many thanks,

Hi Everyone,

I have passed the PTCB exam as well and - just like - I am very grateful

for the excellent resource that this group has provided me with. Thank you so

much to Jeanetta and all the skilled Techs out there! Although I studied for

over 3 months from 3 different study books, I feel like I couldn't have made it

without you.

Oh ... I have also found a job already. This is my 2nd week that I've been

working part-time at the CVS right a few blocks from my house. I have been hired

as Pharmacy Clerk and will be promoted to Pharm Tech as soon as I become

licensed. This works out great because I am assisting the techs in my downtime,

trying to 'steal' all their knowledge. I have to admit that it's not easy (this

is a total change of career for me - I've been a Software Engineer for more than

10 years), but I do love the challenge and working under pressure.

I guess I have been lucky to have found a job so quickly. I wish you all the

same good luck!

Best wishes & regards,

Luigia F.

I passed!!!

Dear Luigia,

Thank you for the note of appreciation. The TEXPERTS and Della, resident

have questions as you go along. Feel free to post them here too.

So glad to know that you liked, used and benefited from this site.

Congrats!! Which online study books did you purchase?

> Thank you so much for all of the information on the site. I

actually purchased one of the online study books but found the

information on this site easier to understand and much more concise.

I would recommend this site to anyone who was preparing to take the

test, especially on a limited budget. I have spent the last 15 years

as a pharmacy technician but lacked experience in a hospital setting

and I was able to find and study the information I needed. I have not

gotten my specific score yet but the word passed was all I needed.

I purchased Secrets of the PTCB Study Guide but actually found Janetta's site

and Joe's site much more informative, not to mention interesting. Again I am

very grateful.

Dear Colella,

You gave me goosebumps!! Thank you so very much for such a HIGH rating of

this site material. I devleoped (95%) of the material myself with distance

learnign and self study in mind with posting tutorials. I appreciate your

displayed gratitude and discussion of the site. You are one of a few who admit

to using this site mainly. May I place your comments in the Testimonial

section?

What a great complement, thank you so very much!

Congratulations! I just signed on to this board and that is very encouraging to

me. I can't find online affordable learning sites and this is a great

testimonial for those of us who have to find a way.

Can you share what was your routine or method using this group and what texts

you used.

I'll have to get back to you on the text I used....I'v egot it laying around

here somewhere but the name slips my mind.

And as far as this group just ask any questions that you have and I'm sure

someone will help you or guide you to where you can get the answers. The files

section of the group has a lot of good info on things you need to study and all

that. Her files are very useful, especially how to study the top drugs.

I also had help from a guy I work with. He is a Pharmacist and wanted to see me

pass and tutored me off and on.

Thanks !

And Congrats again!

This site is pretty much self-contained. Go to Files then Folder #5 for all of

the Tutorials. The same in the Links section Folder #5

Study a study guide or review book. Study my tutorials. Then post your questions

of material you studied that you do not understand.

Lot's of how to's.
