Hi, neilzep,

I just got my score today, and I passed with an 82. I never thought I'd pass! Seriously. I was depressed for the last 7 days! This is surprising.

The Schroff CDs were ok, but I felt that the questions were too straightforward and did not apply the questions to practice settings. I haven't practiced in 10 years (been in the drug industry); so I think I would have benefitted from more practice-related questions on the CD.

Have you taken the exam yet? If not, I would suggest the Pharmacy Law Digest from Facts and Comparisons. Looking back, it had lot of the answers to the questions, like OTC stuff. It has a good explanation on reverse distributors and how the DEA form 222 works for reverse distributors.

Also, the Pharmacist's Guide to CSA found on the DEA website is helpful:

I found this site from a Wash U professor webpage. It is a general guide that applies to all states. I found it very helpful.

If you're taking the CT exam, pay attention to the little things like the minimum number of hours a pharmacy has to stay open. The response time for change in name and address of pharmacist or intern or etc. They even asked about how long the temporary pharmacist permit was good for.
They asked what the required equipment is for topical compounding...

Anyway, good luck on the test!
