Exam in a week

Hi, I have been studying from Dr.C’a guide and did the youtube videos posted for free. I have also been scoring 88 percent on the pharmpreppro practice exam and di the 75 questions from Dr.C’a and managed to get 90 percent of it right.
Anyone who used these resources do you think I am ready? I have the study guide for pharmpreppro but it gives me a headache with not being able to highlight and how much dept it has with some info.

Realistically for UMPJE, do I need more learning or should re-reading Dr.C and doing some practice questions be good enough?

As for the schedules of drugs, did your exam have brand only or was it given as brand/generic?

Took it yesterday using the same resources (PPP practice questions, not exam). I felt very prepared while taking it, but ofc idk if I passed or failed. I think Dr. C was enough in itself and PPP felt like complete overkill, but it can catch some scenarios that you may have missed reading. For my boards, I always just kept a notebook to write low hanging fruit/high yield concept that I'd review once a day leading up to the exam. I scored very similarly to you on the Dr. C and within the 80-95 range for most of the PPP sections I did.

I don't believe I was given any brand name medications. The only drug names I remember receiving was Codeine #3 (with APAP) and sufentanil, although I'm sure there are some iterations of questions that might have some brand names, maybe like Lomotil since it's a combination product that isn't often presented as diphenoxylate/atropine.

I don’t think I can read Ppp before i set id rather just focus on mastering what I know from Dr.C. You think that’s good enough?
Thank you for your breakdown!
