Feb Recalls 3

This document summarizes the February 2020 KAPS pharmacy licensing exam in Pakistan. It outlines that most questions were about pharmacology, drug metabolism and kinetics. There were also 15-20 questions on medicinal and pharmaceutical chemistry. It recommends studying Lippincott thoroughly, including the kinetics section, as drug metabolism is important. The paper 2 exam repeated questions from 2019 and included 10 easy and 5 complex drug calculations. The best references for study are the Lippincott textbook, Marco notes, the notes on pharmaceutics and pharmaceutical chemistry available in the KAPS group files, and prior exam recalls. CPR chapters 1-13 on pharmacology and medicinal chemistry are also useful to review.

Most of paper 1 questions were about pharmacology , metabolism and kinetics of drugs .

Lots of A.B spectrum

3 or 4 questions physiology .

15-20 questions medicinal and pharmaceutical chemistry .

I advise to study Lippincott well , don’t neglect kinetics part , metabolism is very important too ( 7- 10
questions )

Paper 2 questions were repeated from 2019 recalls plus 10 easy calculations and 5 kinetics
calculations app.

Best references for study :

Lippincott as hard as u can

Marco notes V.imp. ------ in Kaps group files

All about pharmaceutics note ----- in Kaps group files

All about pharmaceutical chemistry ----- in Kaps group files

Recalls are very very important

Cpr take a look on first 13 chapters especially pharmacology and medicinal parts , ceutics part is
briefed in the ceutics note , read it also .

u can also take a look on physiology part in misbah , its easy .
