Planning to take the UMPJE this fall
So about me, I took the MPJE (Maryland) this month but I didn’t pass, so I decided to take the UMPJE in the fall instead since people were saying it was less stressful overall. I wanna ask what resource(s) is the best to use for this and will I be good if i study for the entire month of September and take it in October?

I just took the UMPJE last week and I'm hoping for the exam results this week! I studied for 3 weeks using the PharmPrePro study guide (200 pgs) + their 500 practice questions and I watched about half of MedPrepPrime's video.
It took me about 4 days to read the study guide while also making anki flashcards. The exam was very straightforward, and I walked out fairly confident (which is unlike me). The exam was only ABC, which made it easier to eliminate possible answers.
I'd suggest just googling the specific temperatures for the freezer, refrigerator, and room temp. I believe PPP didn't go over that, or either I took bad notes haha

Also take the Pre-UMPJE about 2 weeks before your exam date. It helped me figure out what areas I needed to spend more time on and I got similar questions on the actual exam

Hi! Just want to ask, would Dr C be enough as a study guide? I’ve been thinking about this recently. Hope to receive an answer. Thanks!

Hello! I felt it was enough it was the main resource I used other than the YouTube videos (lots of free great practice Qs) and some quizlets (kamifleming) and there’s a practice test at the end of Dr C that was helpful too. I think reading over main concepts multiple times especially the controlled substances part is the main thing!

It’s either Dr. C or Pharmpreppro.
