i wonder why some cannot pass? 🙄

I've noticed that some pharmacy school applications ask, "have you ever failed the PTCB exam?" I wonder if they hold that against you more than taking the PCAT seven times.

the ptcb test is supposedly easier than pcat i would assume.

do we call it the ptcb test or the ptce? which one is more correct?

On the other hand, as long as you are accepted into Pharmacy School you don't need your PTCE license since you automatically become a Pharmacy Intern, and in the time it takes for you to receive the actual license, which usually takes a couple of months, you can ask the dean to write a letter for you ... and you start making a few more dollars/hour in the summer previous to Rx School 🙂

Not always true. Depends on the state you go to school in; in terms of when you can get your intern license.

PTCB calls it PTCE, I'd go with that.

What are your guys' wages as 1st year interns?? I went to some schools' open house and got the impression that they're paid a bit less than what I'm making as a tech!
