What questions are similar to the actual exam?

Hi, if a pharmacy tech sees a pharmacy using a controlled IV substance, who he needs to report it?

a) PIC
b) DEA
c)board of pharmacy

I’m about a fourth of the way through my study guide and this doesn’t seem that bad? Does this mean I should have been a lawyer?

is two weeks enough to study for umpje? I bought dr C’s study material. please let me know what you guys think

Different study sources are telling me different things. A CIII-CIV can have no more than 5 refills and within 6 months from the date issued. Is this the same for a C-V? Or does a C-V have a whole year worth (11 ) of refills?

Very confused. Please help. Thank you!

Which task is generally not appropriate for a pharmacy technician to perform without pharmacist authority or final verification?

A. Entering prescription information into the pharmacy system

B. Counting tablets for a prescription

C. Counseling a patient about how to use a new medication

D. Restocking prescription bottles and supplies

Hello guys! I just did my pre-test and got 29 (which i believe means about 72%) and my exam is this Thursday! Should i reschedule? Or i am at a good spot? (I am only using pharmlaw as the study guide)

Thank you

Hi everyone,
I'm starting to prepare for the UMPJE and could really use some advice from those who have tested recently. I see a lot of mixed opinions on PharmLaw, PharmPrepPro, Dr. C, and other paid resources, so I'm having a hard time deciding where to invest my time and money.

For those who purchased their own study materials:
• What resources did you use?
• Which ones did you feel were worth the money?
• Were there any you regret buying?

I'd really appreciate hearing about your experiences and what worked for you. Thank you in advance for taking the time to help. I know these exams are stressful, and I'm grateful for any guidance.

I live in Ohio. I just paid 100$ to confirm eligibility. I plan on using it for a state I might relocate to. If say, 2 years from now, I choose to go to a different state that accepts UMPJE is the score still valid? Can I transfer the score similar to Naplex etc or do I need to retake the exam?

Hey everyone! I keep seeing that the UMPJE is a little challenging and I take mine in a week. I have been just using Dr. Cs book and was wondering if anyone has any other better resources or advice so that I can pass this exam in first try?? Anyone in here already taken it?

Hey I want to figure out what sources I should use. I currently have DR.Cs book and read the dea manual as well.. should i get the rx prep book , pharm law or pharmprepro?

Can multiple CII prescriptions be written on the same hardcopy? DEA doesn’t specifically mention anything about it - it only mentions that issuing multiple prescriptions for CIIs that “Each separate prescription must be issued for a legitimate medical purpose…”

Since it does not specifically mention issuing multiple controls on the same hardcopy, that means you could legally fill it, correct?

So, I passed the UMPJE through North Carolina. It says I only have 89 days to transfer the score to another state. Doesn’t that defeat the purpose of the UMPJE?

What am I missing?

Is it true that the UMPJE only has multiple choice questions and are only 3 options to choose from? Thanks in advance

I just took the pre-umpje on the nabp website and scored a 36. There were 40 questions in total, so is this exam a scaled score or is it just a percentage of how many you miss or get right? It just gives me a score of 36, so I’m not sure if that is a good score or not.

Which of the following actions best satisfies a pharmacist’s corresponding responsibility when dispensing a controlled substance prescription?

A. Dispense the prescription as written if it was issued by a licensed prescriber

B. Verify that the prescription was transmitted through an approved method, then dispense it without further review

C. Exercise professional judgment to ensure the prescription was issued for a legitimate medical purpose in the usual course of professional practice

D. Contact the prescriber before dispensing every controlled substance prescription

Hello I was wondering if the UMPJE had a lot of SATA or K-type questions (I, II, III, etc). Does it ask about various drugs on CS categories, NIOSH, REMS? I'm using PharmLaw, what sections of the federal and compounding study guide are most benefical? Is it mainly the underlined or highlighted/boxed sections. I'm also using the UMPJE app and going through those questions. If anyone took a state MPJE after the UMPJE is it similar to the UMPJE or did studying for the UMPJE help with other MPJEs (like passing/studying for the UMPJE helped you pass another MPJE)?

A patient declines counseling on a new prescription upon picking up medication. Which of the following best describes the pharmacy’s responsibility?

A. Provide counseling only if the patient later contacts the pharmacy with a question

B. Document the refusal and ensure counseling was offered by qualified pharmacy personnel

C. Require the patient to receive counseling before the medication can be dispensed

D. Refer the patient to the prescriber for all counseling-related questions

I saw some recommending this site and bought it. I feel kinda scammed as the ~500 page document is web-based and super encrypted (no highlighting or notes). It's not a pdf. How am I supposed to study this if I cant even use CTRL+F to find things?

Seriously considering purchasing PharmLaw as the descriptions says it has pdfs

Hi everyone
I took my UMPJE yesterday and I am wondering how long before I should expect the results?
It does say that I can purchase a score transfer but I don’t think that means a pass necessarily?
