Hey everybody.
I just failed the NAPLEX for the second time. My first attempt I went through the Rx Prep book but didn't go through it aggressively and the results showed it.
The 2nd time I went through every chapter twice and did all the calculations in 1 month and felt very confident. However, the exam hit me with a lot more math and I realized the math questions on the NAPLEX were a lot more difficult then the questions I practiced in Rx Prep. Including TPN and the alligation method (which I honestly thought I had down pat). I just downloaded the SDN 120 and will be doing all these questions thoroughly. Also, I was asked a lot of questions in regards to compounding terms (levigation, sifting, etc.) along with clinical trial testing and specific names of tests and when they are supposed to be used. Both of my exams focused on two completely different topics, but in the end I know it came down to the math. I only missed by 25 points (so I know the math got me) and I already passed my MPJE!! I am just dying to finish the final step and I have yet to do successfully twice now.
Please if anybody can give me any advice or helpful tips, please do. I am very down on myself right now and have a great job I do not want to lose. I'll be taking the exam again in March, so until then any suggestions on how to approach this next attempt will be much appreciated.
