Is anyone planning on taking the MPJE first? It seems like most people take the Naplex first but I have talked to a lot of pharmacists that say if they could do it over again they would take the MPJE first. Just curious to see what everyone's opinion is.........thanks
 
I'm taking the MPJE first after getting that advice from new practitioners. I was told that most people study harder for the NAPLEX when their focus should be the MPJE, but since most people take the NAPLEX first, they burn out on studying and blow off the law exam.

I'm taking the NAPLEX first because there is more material. I'm giving myself one week to study for the MPJE. I bought a book from the Kaplan lecturers. They have MPJE style questions and it's an easy read. I also took a Kaplan Florida review course and have the notes from that.
 
I took MPJE last week and will take NAPLEX next month. Before I got my MPJE score back I couldn't focus on studying anything since I thought I failed (but I passed). From what I heard NAPLEX seemed to be easier and didn't leave the candidate feeling "really depressed" after the exam. It may be good just to get the harder exam over with first.
