Pass the PTCB Exam — Even If You’re Starting From Zero

Welcome!

If you’re preparing for the PTCB exam and feel overwhelmed by drug names, pharmacy math, or federal law — you’re not alone. I started with no pharmacy experience and passed the PTCB in just 2 months through focused, structured study.

This website is designed to make PTCB preparation simple, clear, and practical. No confusing explanations. No unnecessary information. Just what you truly need to pass.

Easy-to-understand drug classifications

Understanding drug classifications is one of the most important parts of passing the PTCB exam. Instead of memorizing random drug names, learning drug classes helps you recognize patterns.

Step-by-step pharmacy math explanations

Pharmacy math does not have to be scary.

Most PTCB math questions follow patterns. Once you understand the setup, the problems become predictable.
