Episode notes

Worried about the assessment Calculations paper? Then this month's Pre-Reg podcast is for you!

We've got expert tips to help you prepare for the paper and resources to help you practice answering those tricky calculations questions.

Helen Chang, RPS lead for Pre-Registration support, is joined on our podcast this month by Simon, an experienced Pre-Reg tutor, and Lulu, a recently qualified pharmacist.

Shownotes

The GPhC's list of approved calculators can be found in section 5.3 of their Pre-Registration Manual.

The GPhC publishes sample questions from the assessment on their website - here are the 2019 Calculation questions.

Pre-Reg members of the RPS get 30 days of free access to their online revision tool, ONtrack, as part of their membership.

The ProPharmance calculation videos mentioned by Lulu can be found here.

RPS members can talk to our Support Team (at rpharms.com/support) about any aspect of their Pre-Reg year - including assessments!
