I just took the CPJE today. Like everyone has mentioned, the questions are way more detail oriented than NAPLEX.

Make sure you know the brand/generic. Some of the questions are really easy. If you work in a pharmacy, you will know the brand/generic. Some are for sure not on the top 300 list. I could't even remember the name so I can check after exam to see if I guessed it right.

I had maybe 5-6 pure law questions. Only of one of them I was not quite sure is related to vet prescriptions. Otherwise, I think the weissman book prepared me well for the exam.

I only had 1 oncology question and no HIV. I guess I am lucky!

3-4 really easy maths questions.

Let's hope I pass! I've been sitting at home for 3 months for all these license transferring process! I can't do more!

Finally got my score. 89!! yay, I passed!

CPJE is the most grueling test experience for me. The only thing worse was the wait to see whether I passed or not. I literally lost 15 pounds in the time I started preparing for the exam to when I found out I passed. Sadly, by passing the exam, the 15 pounds came right back

See the funny thing is that the study guide that the board releases did not mention anything about calculations. I had calculations in which i had to know certain equations.

Oh man... I really didn't expect calculations on the CPJE 'cuz it's definitely not on the blueprint! Do you mind telling us what type of problems you got?

took my first attempt for CPJE today, not feeling too good because I checked the answer later after test, out of 5-6 questions that I could remember, I only got 2 right :( don't know how they grade the exam, how many points for each question, curved? my only hope is the one I didn't get are the ones don't count....
Like everyone else said, the question itself is pretty straight forward. only a couple I think the language is confusing. Got a few calculations but easy. A lot of questions asked you the generic name and you have know what's for and the dosage or side effect. Overall I felt it's easier than NAPLEX but will see what score I get....
