the scores are mailed to you like about two to three weeks later. they also post them up on their website for you to check.
also remember after you pass the test, you have to apply for the license with your state.
just passing the test alone doesn't register you with the state as a pharm tech

if you are licensed then why would u even need to take the exam???
i know some people who just work w/out a license and they are required to take the exam and get a license.
but whatever ur case may be. the test isn't that hard, just knowing the conversions, rules, and drug names and stuff you be fine.
but since u are alreayd working at a pharmacy it should be piece of cake for u

dosnt hurt so yes it helps, its a small percentage of the things u need but it helps buddy. the exam isnt so hard just know how to convert going from 250mg/ 5 to 500mg/5 things like that and most questions seem to be hospital related. i didnt practice or anything and i passed but then again everything i learned in college.
