A handy guide for students preparing for the External Pharmacists Examination conducted by the Ceylon Medical College Council has been produced by the Pharmaceutical Society of Sri Lanka (PSSL) under an educational grant provided by pharmaceuticals firm GlaxoSmithKline (GSK).
The first publication of its kind in Sri Lanka, the 176-page book contains past question papers from examinations conducted between March 2000 and July 2008, and a section containing 39 practical calculations and directions for preparations that are done at pharmacies.
The book is to be distributed by GSK free of charge to students registered for the External Pharmacists Examination, in an initiative that responds to an acknowledged need to raise the standard of pharmacy education in Sri Lanka and promote professionalism among pharmacists, the company said. |
