      Having been a PTCB, I believe makes you an even better nurse. There are life lessons you learn doing PTCB work. (Angelina ciccoco)Congratulations on passing your exam!!

    Hey Rosa! I am trying to memorize my Top 200 drugs, but the memorization is not the issue, it’s more of the information. As I’m looking through different sources, there seems to be listed different brand names for some and sometimes even different generic names. I don’t want to study the wrong information, so what would you recommend as a reliable source? I hope to hear from you soon! Thanks!

    This is a really random question , but I start training at a CVS for pharmacy tech , as well as front store. I was wondering at what point do I get to wear scrubs ? Lol until after I pass everything or will I wear it for training?

    • @RosaPerez

      I think it depends on the person and how you would feel most comfortable taking it. I would feel a little weird if someone was watching me the whole time I was taking the exam at home. I did not mind the testing center because it was close to my house and it was in a smaller room with few people.
