Preparing for the North American Pharmacist Licensure Examination™ (NAPLEX®) is much easier when students use the Preparing for the North American Pharmacist Licensure Examination™ (NAPLEX®) is much easier when students use the Pre-NAPLEX™. The only NAPLEX practice exam written and developed by the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy® (NABP®),   the Pre-NAPLEX will familiarize students with the NAPLEX testing experience.

Because the Pre-NAPLEX is similar to the actual NAPLEX in many ways, students who take the Pre-NAPLEX will have a chance to “preview” the NAPLEX experience before exam day. In fact, the questions on the Pre-NAPLEX are actual questions that have previously appeared on the NAPLEX exam.

Students who complete the Pre-NAPLEX will not only be able to practice for the NAPLEX, but will also be given an estimated, scaled score based on their answers to the Pre-NAPLEX questions. Pre-NAPLEX scores are interpreted in a similar fashion as the NAPLEX. Please note that, like other practice exams, students’ scores on the Pre-NAPLEX will be similar to what they can expect to receive on the NAPLEX, but may not be the actual score attained, nor is it a guarantee of passing the NAPLEX examination.

For added convenience, Pre-NAPLEX is Internet based so it can be accessed at home, the library, school, or work. Students can register for and take one or more of the exams online at www.pharmacist.com or www.nabp.net. The Pre-NAPLEX consists of three different exam forms, each with 50 questions. The cost for each Pre-NAPLEX attempt is $50. Students can sit for the Pre-NAPLEX at any time on any day.
