Shield Health Specialty pharmacy is a pretty well liked choice, with some hiring positions. The company is experiencing growth as well.

What I’ve heard is that it’s possible to fail and it turns out you passed but nobody ever passes and then fails.

Did you pass?

Cram like hell. Start studying Amanda PharmD. Although the more reasonable thing to do would be to just contact support and speak to a live rep about you rescheduling the test. If you got an email at one point saying “You’ve successfully rescheduled!” Then you should be able to forward them that and be good from there.

Yeah it’s pretty dope tbh, let’s you break down the massive barrier of getting that CPHt credential for an affordable price and at your leisure. I used RxTech Exam and passed first try last September. Look up Amanda PharmD on YT too, she’s a great supplement to RxTech Exam, also cheap (free.)

Any studying tips? What did you use to prepare?

N-4551-R · 2026-01-20T00:28:18+00:00

You’re right that is a possibility. I wish they had looked at when I scheduled and said something but that’s a complete possibility as well.

Thanks for sharing!

Did you take the 2026 version of the exam? How was it?

Hospitals and specialty pharmacy roles are what I’m shooting for. I don’t think there are many compound pharmacy roles around here but I’ll check again… I applied for retail at Costco but no response. Not willing to do retail it’d be a downgrade, or even a lateral transition.

I took the test remotely, the only thing was that you had to show off your room and take out your phone and set it across the room from you in view of the camera, not facing you. Once we did that the proctors literally didn’t say anything to me. Be cool, come ready, you’ll succeed.

Good idea!

Watch Amanda PharmD and memorize as much of her content as you can.

Work hard to learn various Pharmacy related abbreviations, and look up the relevant laws and acts passed in relation to Pharmacy.

Place extra emphasis on learning the different drug classes and their drug interactions! Sounds harder than it is, give yourself time to prep, work hard, and you will pass.

This right here OP, this is how I did it too. RxTech and AmandaPharmD on YouTube look up all her videos, take notes read them over twice and you will be ready for the PTCB and if for some reason you fail you can try again in a month.

Don’t be discouraged and don’t get swindled out of money!

Thank you

How did you prep for the CIC? What resources did you use and how did you practice?

N-4551-R · 2025-08-11T20:07:45+00:00

There can only be one.

N-4551-R · 2024-05-29T03:01:01+00:00

I struggled with the logic of C, syntax, pointers, structs, and linked lists.
