Your complete CPTC study plan
Cover all four exam areas in a natural order.
Begin with the mock exam, study one area at a time, practice it, and finish by revisiting your weakest results.
Take the 150-question mock exam.
Use it as your baseline. Mark the areas where you miss the most questions, but still work through all four categories below.
Donation Process Support
Referral flow, hospital collaboration, documentation, communication, and case coordination.
- Learn with the focused study guide
- Practice with the question set
- Review every rationale you miss
Donor Identification
Donor evaluation, authorization, brain death and DCD concepts, referrals, and early suitability decisions.
- Review identification and referral concepts
- Practice the core category
- Add authorization and brain death practice
Donor Management
Assessment, testing, suitability, physiology, laboratory trends, and optimization of organ function.
- Start with testing and suitability
- Continue with optimization
- Build speed with focused review
Allocation & Recovery
Allocation, recovery, preservation, packaging, labeling, and transport handoffs.
- Review the recovery sequence
- Practice preservation and packaging decisions
- Finish with your weakest mock-exam topics
When you finish all four areas
Return to your missed questions—not the entire syllabus.
Use the rationales and sources to close the remaining gaps, then repeat targeted practice where your confidence is still lowest.
