FPGEE

​

The Foreign Pharmacy Graduate Equivalency Examination®, or FPGEE®, is one of the examinations required as part of the FPGEC Certification Program. (You must also take and pass the TOEFL iBT, the English-language exam administered by Educational Testing Service.)

​

The FPGEE is offered twice each year, and it is administered at Pearson VUE test sites throughout the continental United States. Only individuals made eligible during the FPGEC application process can take the FPGEE.

​

Once you successfully complete the FPGEC evaluation process, you will receive a letter of acceptance to sit for the FPGEE as well as detailed information on the registration and scheduling process. An FPGEE Identification Card, which will contain instructions for beginning the exam registration process, will also be included.

​

When you are accepted to take the FPGEE, you will have the opportunity to take the examination on one of two consecutive testing opportunities. For example, if you are accepted for the October 10, 2017 FPGEE, but decide not to take the exam, you can still take the next exam. The April 18, 2018 FPGEE will be your second, and final, opportunity to take the FPGEE. However, if you provide documentation showing that a work, health, personal, or visa-related circumstance is preventing you from taking the examination, the FPGEC will review the documentation and decide if an additional opportunity to test will be granted.

Important Test Day Information

​

On your test day, you’ll need to do the following before your exam at a Pearson VUE testing center:

​

1. Bring two forms of ID: One of these IDs must be a:

   • US/Canadian passport

   • US/Canadian driver’s license

   • US state/Canadian province ID

   • US/Canadian temporary driver’s license

   • US learner’s permit

   • US military ID

   • Canadian military ID

   • US passport card

   • Valid debit/credit/ATM cards

 

The printed name on both your primary and secondary forms of ID must match the name that appears on your ATT letter. If you do not have the correct IDs with you on the day of your test, you will not be able to test. Your name will be printed on your ATT exactly as it appears in your NABP e-Profile. See the NAPLEX/MPJE Registration Bulletin for more information.

​

1. Arrive 30 minutes early: This will give you time to complete check-in procedures. You may be required to forfeit your appointment if you do not allow enough time.

2. Read the NAPLEX/MPJE Registration Bulletin for more information about procedures and restrictions.

You are allowed a maximum of 5 attempts per jurisdiction or state to pass the MPJE. After a failed attempt, you must wait 30 days per jurisdiction or state to next attempt the MPJE. Some exceptions may apply, as NABP member boards retain the authority to determine the number of attempts per candidate in their jurisdiction.
