The syllabus for this class is now available in print. The title is "Understanding Pharmacy Calculations" and it is available for purchase through either APhA, Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com, and other web sites. I strongly urge you to consider buying the book as the explanations are more complete, there are more problems, and the information is more up-to-date, and there are fewer typos, than the information on this web page (most of which was assembled in 1998 and 1999). It will work well to keep around for study prior to your licensure examination. My students have told me that the calculations questions in the book are very similar to those on the licensing examination.

These are all Adobe Acrobat files.
