Guest guest Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 I am so confused too all this!! I'm studying too take the exam soon but I have no idea where too get a good starting point, I don't even know what to start with! Is it a big importance too learn the top 200 drugs and there generics? What's all this about learning drug classifications? And also the math? Where should I start with that? Any help with this would be very much appreciated!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 Dear , As you can see you are not the only one to ask where to I begin and do I really need to know the T/g's? Giving yourself enough time to study will help ensure that you pass the exam. Time is one thing, positive belief in your self is another and the right tools is another. The right books! Get your self at least two different books from two different authors and use this site tutorials. This site! After studying a particular subject in both the books and on this site, IF you still have questions post them! Begin in the same place that most books begin, with abbreviations, reading and interpreting prescriptions, Trade and generics, LAW and Math. So FIRST get yourself two good books. IF you need help with that check out the Files section specifically File #2 Books and Study Guides. Hope this helps! I Am hoping others who have survived the test will give their advice too. I am sure most of you can recall feeling just like in the beginning. Respectfully, Jeanetta Mastron CPHT BS Founder/Owner > > I am so confused too all this!!
