FAQs about the BCPP Review Course Package:

Is it best to purchase the premium package or subscribe to each service separately?
It is cheaper and best to purchase the premium package.

I am an international subscriber, can I purchase the BCPP Review Course with the Course Notebook?
Unfortunately, no. We greatly value our many international subscribers and thoroughly researched options for mailing the course notebook. We have found however, that the mailing options are many times unreliable and we cannot guarantee that you will receive the notebook. In addition, the mailing and customs costs were expensive making this option prohibitive to our customers. Therefore, we do not mail outside of the United States. When purchasing please choose the option without the course notebook. We do not provide electronic copies of our material as we desire to protect the integrity of our information so that we may keep the cost of the review course affordable for all. 

How long will I have access to the BCPP Review Course?
You will have access for the amount of time purchased starting from the time you activate your account. If more time is needed, we do typically offer active customers a discount for adding or purchasing more time. Additionally, you can earn extra time on your account through our referral program. For more information about the benefits of our referral program, please click here.

If I want to purchase or add more time to my BCPP Review Course accounts, can I do that at a discount?
Yes. As long as your account is active, you may log into your account and then click to add more time to your Q-Bank and/or purchase additional viewings of any lectures within the BCPP Online Lecture Center that you desire to view again at a discounted rate.  Since the online review course is already significantly discounted, we do not offer any additional discounts for the review course package.    

In what order should I utilize the Q-Bank and Online Lectures?
We designed the review course and each component to allow you to customize your learning experience based on your personal needs. While this may vary for each person, most prefer to watch some of the lectures and then work on the questions, coming back to watch the lectures again prior to the exam.  Some will watch a lecture on a specific category (such as Psychotic illnesses) and then complete all of the practice test questions associated with the Pyschiatric illness section within their Q-Bank account.  

How are the lectures released or made available to me once I register?
All of the lectures for the entire review course are immediately available to you for your viewing.  You may also view them in any order that you would like.

 

Approximately how long does it take to complete all of the material?    
It depends on how in depth you take your preparation for the exam. The minimum amount of time it would take to complete all of the BCPP practice test questions and flashcards in a back-to-back fashion would be about 24 hours. There are approximately 20 hours of online lectures. Some people will be able to complete the questions and lectures quicker than this, but most will take at least this much time.  

Do you guarantee that I will pass the BCPP Exam if I do this review course?
No, we do not guarantee that you will pass as everyone's knowledge base, level of training, and experience is different. However, we do feel confident that you will find the information to help prepare you for the concepts being tested on the BCPP Exam if you do everything provided by the Online Review Course; and we stand behind the review course content to the extent that if you do fail the BCPP Exam and have met all of the criteria as outlined in the money back guarantee policy, we will be happy to give you a portion of your investment back or provide you with extended access to the review course.

If I make a referral using the referral code provided in my account, will I gain longer access to both the BCPP Q-Bank and the BCPP Online Lecture Center?
Yes. We greatly value and appreciate your referrals. For every referral that results in the purchase of any item from High-Yield MED Reviews using your personal referral code, you will be rewarded with the addition of a 1-month extension to your active accounts. This means that you will gain an additional month of access to both the BCPP Q-Bank and the BCPP Online Lecture Center page for each successful use of your referral code.

Are there lectures covering biostatistics available in the BCPP Online Lecture Center?
Yes - absolutely. We fully realize that biostatistics is a critical component to your success on the BCPP Exam. The faculty for this series of online lectures has been teaching biostatistics and clinical literature evaluation for over 10 years and he will make sense of it for you.

Can I watch the online lectures available in the BCPP Online Lecture Center as many times as I want during my subscription?
When you purchase the BCPP Review Course, you gain access to the BCPP Online Lecture Center, which provides you with links for each available lecture. You will receive 3 redemption periods for viewing each lecture. To view a lecture, simply click "redeem" next to the desired lecture at the Online Lecture Center and you will be given 24 hours during which you may watch the lecture as many times as you would like. Similar to a movie rental from iTunes, during that 24-hour period of time, you may pause, stop, rewind or forward through the video as much as you would like. After that initial 24-hour period is up, you will still be able to redeem your 2nd 24-hour viewing period during which you may watch the lecture again, as long as your account is still active (i.e., 6-months or 1 year from the date of purchase). Most people watch each lecture once and then work on practice test questions in their Q-Bank before coming back to re-watch any desired lectures or content.

What does it mean that I can watch each online lecture for two - 24 hour periods of time?
Each lecture comes with (3) 24-hour viewing periods, which you may redeem at any time. For example, when you redeem 1 of the 3 viewing periods you have for each lecture, you will be given 24 hours to watch that online lecture. Similar to a movie rental from iTunes, during that 24-hour period of time, you may pause, stop, rewind or forward through the video as much as you would like. After that initial 24-hour period is up, you will still be able to watch the lecture again over whenever you redeem your additional viewings, as long as your account is still active (i.e., 6-months or 1 year from the date of purchase). Most people will watch each lecture once and then work on practice test questions in their Q-Bank before coming back to re-watch any desired lectures or content.


Will I have the ability to re-purchase individual lectures within the review course for extra viewing once I have already taken advantage of my 2 redemptions?
Yes and at a discount! Once you have redeemed each of your 24 hour access periods for a specific lecture within the BCPP Online Lecture Center, you will be given the opportunity to purchase access to that specific lecture at a discounted price so that you can watch it a third time for another period of 24 hours.


Are all of the online review course lectures available immediately?
All of the lectures for the entire review course are immediately available to you for your viewing.  You may also view them in any order that you would like.


Are there any discounts for renewing access to items within my account? 
Yes. We offer discounts for renewing Q-Bank subscriptions as well as re-purchasing individual online lectures found within your BCPP Online Lecture Center, as long as your account is still active (i.e., not expired). You can choose to renew or purchase a time extension for your BCPP Q-Bank account, or you can choose to add more viewing periods to one of the specific online lectures within the BCPP Online Lecture Center. Or you can do both - all at discounts.  Since the online review course is already significantly discounted, we do not offer any additional discounts for the entire review course package. 


Can I share my personal account and access to BCPP Review Course with other people?
No. Doing so is a violation of the terms and conditions of use that you will have to agree to at the time of purchase. In addition, you would be subject to legal action taken against you. We do monitor the number and locations of the IP addresses that access your account, as well as the time of day. If we determine that your account is being shared or compromised, we reserve the right to shut down your account without notification or a refund to you ahead of time. Furthermore, sharing your account will take away the number of viewings you have access to for the online lectures and will also mess up your statistics in Q-Bank, as it determines the questions that you have used and not used to help you stay on track with your personal planner. Therefore, you will not be able to determine what you answered or how you answered the questions, since other people will have answered them as well.  For more information please read User Agreement and the Terms and Conditions.

What other features does Q-Bank offer to aid in my studying?
Our advanced practice testing system offers a variety of unique features that make us stand out from other services. Such features include a dashboard that allows you to customize your session to meet your specific needs, a personal planner, a performance report card, the ability to flag questions to come back to later, a visual strike through feature to help in narrowing down the answer choices, the ability to set a timer for your session, the ability to see statistics on how others like you answered that same question and a rational section with supporting medical references to help you understand the concept being addressed in the question.      

What is the personal planner in my Q-Bank?
When you begin using your Q-Bank account, you will be asked a few questions that will allow the system to generate a personalized plan so you know what to do on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis in order to finish everything.  Don't worry if you get off track or get ahead - the personal planner will adjust the plan accordingly.  This is one of many unique features we offer to enhance your learning experience and aid in your success. 

What type of performance statistics will I be able to see in my BCPP Q-Bank that will help me to monitor my progress?
Access to your performance statistics is another unique feature that we offer with your Q-Bank subscription. As you answer the practice test questions, the system will keep track of how many questions you have completed, still need to complete and have flagged to view at a later time. In addition, it provides you with a performance report card on your progress. The system will show how many questions you are getting right and wrong and will identify domains or categories where you are strong and weak so that you can re-adjust your studying to aid in your success.
