Took my exam 5/9 and I think I failed. I realize I got quite a few wrong after I took it. Anyway last batch was 5/4 so this one might take a while to get the scores.

Sorry to hear that. I've heard it's overall a difficult exam from lots of people, but just wait for your result. Did you have any calculations on your exam?

How many did you think you missed to consider “quite a few”?

Only a couple such as calculating CrCl and one Enoxoparin dosing.

For those that don't know, they send you a "CPJE bulletin" packet of sample CPJE questions in the mail. I had several of the questions in the packet match my test questions word for word. It was a nice little surprise.

Does anyone know when the next set of test batch go out, or the next predate? I'm taking my exam May 25, and I hope I don't have to wait terribly too long for the results.

I’m taking this in June. Is there anything out of the ordinary I should focus on? Also, BP guidelines which one does this exam go by? The JNC guidelines? I know there other guidelines and they have different goals. Was the enoxaparin question like mg per kg or ppx dosing question?

The last batch's predate was 5/04 and the trend has been 5-6 weeks for each batch. Someone correct me if I am wrong since I'm not 100% sure

I just took mine today 5/16...can someone explain what all this “batch” and “pre-date” stuff is?

The questions are actually very straight forward. I think what makes it difficult is that it’s just random. You literally have to cover all your bases just for the chance that they might ask 1 question about the 1 inhaler you couldnt remember. Level of difficulty varies with tests though..which they say they do adjust for when grading. Law and pharmacy operations honestly threw me off more because it’s hard to find good resources to study. I had Weissman, but it’s not updated so I kept second guessing the book which confused me more overall. I hear rxprep law gets updated frequently, buut didnt want to shell out the money. If I were to re-study, I’d try to cover more topics and not overstudy any 1 topic. Hoping for the best...and for speedy results!!!

So it would be around mid June before they release the results of the new batch?

Yeah, between beginning and mid-June I'm assuming is probably when the next batch will start. And once it shows you the pre-date on psi, others have said it takes another 1-2 weeks to get your result. If you took your exam after 05/04, probably won't see the pre-date for awhile.

I think people who took their exam in April still don't have their results yet.

From my understanding, the batch just means our results will come in a group. For example, the last batch was around the end of March to the beginning of May so anyone who took their exam during that time frame will get their results around the same time. The "pre-date" I think is the cut off date for the batch and tells you your results will come soon.

Thanks for responding! I feel like I drilled brand/generic and still came across some random one I had zero clue what it was...but otherwise it served me well. They incorporated brand/generic in almost every other q.

Took my exam on April 30 and the pre-date I got was May 4 and I received my result May 21. If you took your exam on May 1 and you haven't received your result then the cut off date was April 30. I guess yours will be part of the next batch

Hey guys,
I have a simple question for you, how is the market demand for pharmacist in California now a days?
I’m pharmacist in Florida and the openings here is so limited and there are no good offers
