The competition tested students on general clinical knowledge including: pharmacology, pharmacotherapeutics, current clinical guidelines and the proper use of over-the-counter medications. Teams were asked a series of 15 questions per round and the team answering the most correct then advanced to the next round. Temple University School of Pharmacy advanced to the final versus Rutgers who they defeated. The TUSP team excelled and only missed two questions during the whole competition.
