My program required a course in QM and recommended a second.
I will say I found Griffiths incredibly difficult (it was the official text for the first course). Admittedly this is in part because my maths background was not as strong as it should have been (the quality of my school's advising was poor, and indicated that I didn't need linear algebra - among other faults). I found myself regularly consulting Eisberg and Resnick's Quantum Physics which had a nice logical structure and fully worked paradigm cases. I thought Zettili was an excellent reference as well.
I'd like to revisit all this at some point. If anyone has a link to a recommended course of study for refreshing physics majors, I'd love to have a look.
