This course was an excellent, thorough preparation for the PTCE. I appreciated how the information was chunked into smaller, more digestible sections, making it easy to gradually learn the material. The supplemental readings from books in the APhA library (included as part of the course) were incredibly helpful and informative, adding additional depth and information to the already comprehensive lectures. By the end of the course, I felt very prepared to take and pass the PTCE. I would highly recommend anyone preparing for the PTCE to take this course. You will be very pleased in your investment.

Organized, Efficient, Great Value!…
Great course for multiple types of learners. Audio modules, reading and quizzes help students to gauge their learning. Helpful study tips are provided; virtual class videos are now being uploaded to resource section so students can view anytime. Information is well organized and thorough. The final exam for course completion can be taken over and over pulling from 1000s of practice bank questions to prepare students for the PCTE. Highly recommend this course; especially if you are new to healthcare!

Simple and Informative
While I haven't taken the PTCE yet as I'm just finishing the course, these lessons were very informative while still being very easy to digest. I prefer learning from visual mediums, so having the bulk of the course be in slideshows that often showed categories separated by colored text boxes was perfect for me. I do wish that some of the required readings were as "user-friendly" as, despite a few exceptions, they were often big blocks of text. I do recognize however, that this is due to the required readings being created by different authors who formatted it more as a textbook. Though it would be a larger task, having an expanded section to help break down these required readings could be beneficial. I also wish there was a way to view old test scores after the fact, since once I navigated away from the page, I would have to retake the test all over with no history to previous scores. I do very much appreciate the sections given on missed questions that explain the correct answer, however. One last thing that I would've loved to have was a way to save the slideshows from the lessons to have offline. I'm in an area with very spotty internet, and it was often disheartening to have times where I was unable to access the material, as the Google Drive files were set to be unable to save offline. I would've liked to be able to save the slideshows and refer back to them for notes more freely.
That all being said, everything else was well organized and easy to learn from. I appreciate Dr. Emmel consistently taking the time to send a message as I completed modules, asking if there was anything I needed and offering to help with any questions and study preparations. Thank you for helping provide this opportunity.

Kris, thank you so much for taking the time to leave this detailed review! These are the types of reviews that help us deliver a better experience for our students. We appreciate your feedback about the required readings. In our new platform that we recently launched, the readings are now embedded in the learning page, starting at the actual section matching the reading for the module. Hopefully this will improve the experience somewhat. We also have an improved exam interface, and users can now revisit prior exam attempts, see their scores, and read the feedback about their answer choices. We also no longer use Google Drive for our resources as everything is embedded in the Learning Management System. We will keep improving! Thanks again for the 5-stars and for your help.
Sincerely,
Aaron Emmel
