PTCB and ExCPT exams. What're the differences? I plan on taking the PTCE asap and apply for a license. I have no prior exp as a pharm tech/clerk.

For most practical purposes, none. I think PTCE is more widely recognized though.

do you also need to take any specific classes to take the ptcb?

You could if you feel that is the best way for you to prepare. You can also study from a PTCE book, which is the way a lot of people choose to do it. After you feel like you know the material, you can sign up for the certification exam.

A great book I used was Mosby's.
