Summary: Helpful study guide!
Comment: I have no pharmacy experience and want to obtain a part-time position as a technician to gain experience prior to applying for pharmacy school next year. In TX, certification is required, so I took the exam on Nov. 15, 03. This is the only book that I studied, and I passed w/ a scaled score of 837 (scale is from 300-900; 650 is passing score). As another reviewer stated, this is a great prep for the math questions. I felt confident in each math question I answered on the exam b/c of this book. I highly recommend it!

Summary: Easy read and best math prep for PTCB Certification
Comment: I'm med student (looking for summer job to help me learn my meds for next year) & had no knowledge of the profession. I studied Noah's book as part of a pharm tech class and got it in 1st week of February 2003 and easily scored a 790 (out of 300-900 scale) on March 30th 2003, without knowing ANY of the meds on the PTCB because I was able to know each and every math question through his book. His formulas are excellent and he teaches alligations which only pharmacists are familiar with but make calculations an absolute breeze. He has several practice exams which simulate the PTCB test better then the PTCB's own practice test on their website, (PTCB's practice test was harder) and some of the exact questions I swear showed up on the board test with a slight change of word or number inserted. If you do all of his practice exams their is no way you can fail. You need to know all of your class I-V schedule drugs, not inside and out, just to be able to identify them in their category. Medical terminology/abreviations for reading prescriptions is excellent don't worry about any abbreviations not in his text. Also, if you are familiar with dimensional analysis used in high school chemistry you can easily do conversions a whole lot easier. (e.g. 5ml=1teaspoon). Know your conversions! I think Noah even sits on the board to make up the questions for the PTCB so if you don't buy this book you'll be taking that exam again. I met professional pharmacy students at the test site who were their to sit for it again. You don't want to be one of them, the exam cost [$$$] each time you sit for it. The only good things about the exam is that they give you plenty of time and you can bring a calculater. Just have a study schedule, discipline and this book and don't waste money on a pharm tech course.
