I use the Apha, Shargel, A& L, Manon shroff as my notes. as each covered what the other did not. I am now selling them at a very cheap price..just send me a private e-mail for prices.

good luck to all

Hey there,

The majority of the exam was patient profiles. I did not get that many k-type questions ..thansk goodness!!!. But the options were not straight forward..you really ahd the think which was the best answer..they would have 2-3 right answers but the wording was weird so you just had to the choose the best one..that was the mian difference from the 1st time arround..which was straight forward 1+1=2. but not this one. I suppose thats why they call it psychometric testing..it reallymade you think.

hope this helps

I only used the APhA book and found that sufficient review. A lot of it is common sense and a solid education from pharmacy school. Having worked as a pharm tech is also good prep. The calculations were very straightforward. I had a variety of topics, but nothing too in-depth. Some crazy things I hadn't heard of. Know your brand/generic, MOA, and ADR.
 
vytorin when did you take the naplex?
i want to know the approximate number of days to wait after taking the exam before they post my license number if i pass the exam...
