PTCB Technician Exam Practice

No release notes.

Is the Pharmacy Technician Certification Exam (PTCE) required? The answer to this question will vary from state to state. But even if your state does not require the exam, that doesn’t mean passing the exam is a waste of time. According to a survey conducted for the PTCB, the public overwhelmingly wants pharmacy technicians to be certified.* In fact, 85 percent said certification is “very important” in the study. Additionally, certification is an excellent way to stand out to employers and show that you’re serious about your work. What to expect when taking the PTCB exam？ The format of the PTCB exam consists of 90 multiple choice questions. But there’s a small catch to keep in mind—only 80 of the multiple-choice questions are scored, while 10 are not. Of course, as the test taker, you won’t know which ones count and which ones don’t, as they’re spread randomly throughout the test. Test takers are given one hour and 50 minutes to complete, so, with 90 questions to answer, that gives you a minute and 22 seconds per question on average. To be on top of your game, you need to know your material. So what can you expect from the exam? Let’s take a look. Topics covered in the PTCB exam The PTCB exam tests students in nine categories, which are referred to as “knowledge domains” by the board. Within each of the knowledge domains are more specific subdomains.
