California

Based on reading about it, there are both legal and clinical (med safety) pieces. Beware that the clinical portion is much more in depth than on the Naplex, but start by focusing on  most common disease states first. And as always, you should be able to recognize the Top 300 + OTC. For more in-depth details, TLDR does a great job. The CPJE package from PNN (in particular) and RxPrep have high ratings to prepare you for the clinical portion.

Lastly, as always, do not eat or drink within 2 hours of the exam. Also, use the restroom right before your exam. Security is extremely intense for these board exams, and even more so for the CPJE. Time does not stop if you go to the bathroom and the regulatory entity will notified if you take more than 5 minutes, regardless of the reasons. You may be accused of cheating and forced to forfeit the exam.

• PNN (question bank + course) + Top 400 and/or RxPrep + Pharmacy Charts→ Lots of brand and generic on this exam. Also ONE OF THE FEW EXCEPTIONS where the major board exam prep companies (besides pharmacyexam.com) may be worth it for the jurisprudence exam. Question bank (especially PNN) are said to help people with the clinical portion significantly based on previous exam takers.
