Pharmacy Tech Exam Prep 2017

The Pharmacy Technician Certification Exam (PTCE®), created by the Pharmacy Technician Certification Board (PTCB®), assesses knowledge that is critical to pharmacy technicians. The content is organized into nine knowledge areas. The PTCE® is a two-hour, multiple choice, computer-based exam. Candidates have one hour and 50 minutes to answer 90 questions.
Pocket Prep’s pharmacy technician practice test app is a powerful exam simulator that allows you to create customized practice tests with detailed answer explanations for every question. View your results and exam history with just a few taps. Study anywhere, anytime without Internet connectivity.

The app utilizes the “spacing effect” to enhance your learning capability. You’ll space out your studying into shorter, more productive study sessions which allow your brain to retain more information. Simply tell the app how many questions you want to take, enable the timer, and filter exam content to create the perfect study experience.

PTCE® Exam Prep Features:
• Two practice modes: Simulation and Study
• Automatic test saving and retrieval
• Detailed historic results analysis
• Optimized for phones & tablets
• In-app messaging to our experts
• Question of the Day
• Study reminders
• Exam day countdown

PTCE® Test Knowledge Areas:We take each exam and break it down into knowledge areas so that you can filter your study sessions based on your needs.

I purchased the Premium feature, and I love it! Very useful. Detailed explanations of each answer choice. I thought an error occurred because I lost access to Premium after about a week, but I reached out to Pocket Prep, and they were very helpful. You have to create an account and make sure you're signed in, in order to use all the Premium features. Four stars because there was a typo or two. Other than that, the app is very helpful.

It has too many flaws. I was using the desktop version, but it was repeating ?s. I chatted the co, but the resp I recieved wasn't a solution. I was told that this was a known issue for the site, but the app didn't have the same glitch, so I should use it. This product costs $15 - I don't think is acceptable. I also had a problem w the app. It is only giving me 100 ?s instead of 400. I chatted the co again, but rec a mess saying someone would prob res w/in 4 hrs. This turnaround time is too long.

Great app. Worth all of the money. I passed my exam on the first try. It categorizes each part of the exam, and a person could study test questions from parts they struggle. It also allows you to flag questions. There are so many questions on this app that I couldn't get through all of them. Great supplement to the right book that gets straight to the point, and leaves out the fluff.

Was working well and then all the sudden it stopped loading the practice exams. An error message kept popping up saying there was a problem loading the practice exams and to try restarting and reinstalling the app. I did that and it still wont work.

I like the 10 question quizzes and question of the day feature. it is super helpful that the answers provide explanations. I wish there were more tools within the app such as flash cards, longer quizzes, etc. Haven't experienced any dumb ads yet, so that is great.

Bought the full version and finished all 800 questions provided, and studied the topics it said I lacked knowledge on. LOVE the option to make custom exams and add a timer. Everything about this app was perfect. Allowed studying to be so much easier. And it gave explanations for the answers. Passed the PTCE on my first try! Highly recommend for anyone studying for the PTCE! Good luck!

Didn't find this helpful at all. I reached out to customer service but was told i can't get a refund because i paid for the app in my app store and not online. This was a day after i bought it and realized it wasn't what i thought it was. So a heads up, if you already are educated and want to just stay fresh with information this would be for you. Otherwise it's hard to study when you don't have any study activities besides quizzes .

Passed my exam 12/31/2020. This was the main app I used and it was extremely helpful. Other than the minor glitches from not being able to log in at times, this app provided some of my success....I would definitely recommend this app......The right way to start the New Year......😅😅😅

This app literally saved me. I kept putting my studying time off for the ptcb and ended up realizing I had 4 days to study. I bought the premium version of this app and just took tests over and over again and took notes based off the answer explanations. I just passed the exam today, and I know for sure I wouldnt have without this app.

Only study prep I used was this app and now I'm a certified tech! I highly recommend getting the $26 unlimited access package. It pays off in the end, and it's cheaper than other study routes.

I paid full money for this app only to have it barely helping me, i did all 800 questions more than 2 times, only to do the exam and i can count on ONE HAND the amount of similar questions that came from the app, for the other 85 questions i had to use my experience and my general knowledge as a science student to pass the exam!!! Wish I could get my money back from this trash app!!

This app is a very good studying tool. I passed my PTCB tonight with the help of this app, although it's not the only tool you should use, you need to study every area, especially math but still very helpful for prep questions!! Thank you to the people who made this app. 😁

Tif. T. Nov 21, 2019     

App was a waste studied all questions more than once also went to the Walgreens classes and used only material Walgreens provided and the app and just failed my test... Very disappointed will take the test again but will NOT use this app and definitely will use material referred by the pctb. Com site or person vue

Thank you so much! Just passed my PTCE today. This app upgraded to Ultimaye and the PTCB calculations app go great hand in hand. They really help you get familiar with the types of questions on the exam.

very good helper. it's easy and on the go while I'm on the bus getting to and from my externship. it's quick to learn and I don't have to carry any books!

I got jip'd😒🙄🙄. I paid $24.99 for FULL Access, and still can't take the full quiz. 🤨 Now I have to pay the $14.99 fee to get Premium... that I already paid for. 😡😡😡 Not happy. Can't believe they advertised this on the PTC Board website..🕳🕳🕳

A good study guide I took the PTCB years ago and it has changed since then. This app is helping me understand the types of questions that are on it now.

Bri. Z. May 5, 2019

Rau. S. Apr 21, 2019     

The Free version has a good first view of how helpful this app is after trying it free I had to get the paid version to start my journey to passing my exam

ton. s. Oct 13, 2019     

This app totally help me pass... 800 questions I think the test is 110 or 90 questions I don't remember... If I didn't know the answer I knew enough of what the other options were so I passed 😁😁

making me remember the formulation, I work retail and we rarely compound, it's hard but my math skills are kicking back in

Ren. S. Feb 1, 2019     

Great app! really in depth and helps me to study even with the limited free version!

Pen. Feb 15, 2022     

I just downloaded and it's telling "Your version of the app is scheduled to lose support on April 01, 2021"

the 6th edition would be better for the 2019 ptce not the the 4th edition. But the app is really helpful

Nel. B. Oct 24, 2018     

Very helpful and it's easy to study and have where ever you go.
