What people who've used it say
Only people who have answered 50+ questions or finished an OSCE station can leave a review. We publish every genuine one, good or bad.
Questions people ask
Are these real PEBC exam questions?
No. Every question is original, written to PEBC's public blueprint and sample-question style. We never use recalled exam content.
Why not study recall lists?
They're often wrong, out of date after the 2026 changes, and PEBC tests each topic in new ways. Understanding the reasoning carries over. Memorized answers don't.
Is RxReady affiliated with PEBC?
No. It's an independent study tool, not endorsed by or connected to the Pharmacy Examining Board of Canada.
Is it up to date for 2027?
Yes. It follows the May 2026 blueprint, the January 2027 pathway, and the October 2026 Controlled Substances Regulations.
Who checks the questions?
Each one is checked against Canadian guidelines and Health Canada product information and audited by a second independent pass. Licensed pharmacists with many years in practice review the bank, and any question you report gets checked first.
How does the AI OSCE work?
You talk to a lifelike person through your microphone or by typing, and they answer out loud. Practice stations are unlimited with a natural voice; members also get 12 live video stations a month in the 3 months before their OSCE, enough for a full 11-station mock OSCE, and can add 10 more for $25. When video runs out, you keep practising with the AI voice patient: the station, conversation and scoring are exactly the same, just without the video. They play a patient, caregiver or prescriber with a hidden history and only reveal details when you ask the right questions. At the end you get a checklist score with your own words quoted as evidence.
Is the AI OSCE the same as the real exam?
No simulation is the real thing. Stations follow PEBC's published OSCE format and competencies, and they're built to train the habits examiners look for: gathering information first, safe recommendations, clear counselling and checking understanding.
How long does my access last?
Until a week after the PEBC sitting you're writing, and never less than 3 months. You can lock in a sitting within the next 7 months (an OSCE sitting within 12 months on MCQ + OSCE, for the MCQ-first pathway). After you buy, you pick your sitting in the app and it locks in. If PEBC moves your exam, or you don't pass and qualify for a free extension, email us your PEBC confirmation and we'll update it.
Can I cancel?
Every plan is a single payment that doesn't renew, so there's nothing to cancel.
How accurate is the readiness score?
It's a practice guide weighted to PEBC's blueprint. PEBC doesn't publish a pass mark, so we never promise a result.
