Guys, this was my second attempt as well and I passed: Score 84, test date 2/28/17, letter dated 3/17/17. I am in Seattle, got the result yesterday.
I found this thread towards the end of my exam prep. I have a lot of respect for everybody on this thread who worked so hard for the exam while showing the support for others. With CPJE, you could be a good pharmacy student and still not pass it. Or you could be a good pharmacist and not do well on this exam. I feel CPJE measures the test taking skills and/or exam prep methods. If you find the right approach to study, you can pass this $*&@#! exam.
My study sources were: Weissman Law Book and PharmCharts 2017. I only used RxPrep for its non-clinical sections such as healthcare safety/quality measures, sterile compounding (USP797 etc)... I purposely did NOT look at the clinical portion of RxPrep, I found that a bit overwhelming for just CPJE. If one could only memorize so much, I'd rather focus on what I can organize in my head and easily recall during the exam. The day before my exam, I did the sample CPJE questions, which was very helpful. You really don't need a bunch of study materials, focus on one for clinical and one for law. Law book I read once and did practice questions once, that was sufficient.
Also: If you feel more confident in the community arena, dig into the hospital side in your review a bit more, such as IV antibiotics. Or practice reading some hospital therapeutic dosing protocols. If your situation is vice versa, pay more attention to OTCs or whatever. You probably know both already, but this gives you more confidence and you will feel calmer when faced with unfamiliar territory during the exam. There were 4 questions I knew the answer to (so basic too!) but answered incorrectly during the exam. I suspect many here knew the answers and had the clinical/practical knowledge, but succumbed to exam nerves. CPJE is broad, the expanse of it made it difficult for many to study. Truth: people who passed the BCPS said CPJE was harder to study for!
So how do you study for an exam that could test you on everything under the sun? The only way for me to cope was identify the pharmacy practice hot topics in addition to knowing the usual heavy hitters. Hot topics: USP797/800, HIV, immunization, non-opioid pain meds, geri-psych, OTC...Usual heavy hitters: cards (HTN, LIPIDS), DM, anticoag, ID. Focus your efforts, you will be ok.
