Here are my top 5 recommendations for the PTCB exam:

PTCB Study Materials

                    1.  Mosby’s Review for the Pharmacy Technician Certification Examination, 3e.

Other useful material includes: 700 electronic flashcards, content review, and exam tips. (384 Pages)
                    2.  PTCB Exam Study Guide: Test Prep and Practice Questions for the Pharmacy Technician Certification Board. Another great study guide for the PTCB. It is a much more concise study guide (170 pages) compared to the Mosby’s Review. It also contains practice problems and review content.
