Hi, I was wondering if anybody knows what happens if I could not appear for Naplex and my ATT expires? My ATT expires in September and have been unable to appear for Naplex....please let me know if I can extend my validity to appear for the Naplex. Please let me know what procedure will have to be followed. Thanks in advance.....

Hi Jojotu, I am a licensed intern pharmacist in CA, studying for NAPLEX and planning to appear for it in early April. What about you? Where you located? Are you already licensed as an intern?

Hi, APhA is the book which is highly recommended by most people. I personally am also studying from it and it seems to be good enough for most part of the exam. Someone recommended ProntoPass for math portion of the exam. I also have the RxPrep, but that would be more like a quick review for the exam. I hope this info helps. Good luck. -Ankash

Hi, Can anyone please advise which books to refer for statistics part of the NAPLEX? Your advice will be highly appreciated. Thanks, Ankash

Hi, Can someone please tell me which books to refer for statistics questions appearing in NAPLEX? Also, is Mannan Shroff calculations book enough for maths questions? Your help would be highly appreciated. Thanks, Ankash.

Nice way of advertising.....an excellent and a very useful website.....

Thank you both you guys for your prompt reply!

Hi All, I am a foreign graduate who has completed my intern hours in CA. Can someone please advise me on how to proceed further registering for Naplex. Do I have to send my intern hours affidavit to NABP as well as CA Board of Pharmacy? Which other documents do I have to send to NABP or CABOP? :hmm: I would really appreciate if someone could guide me through the process. Thanks, Ankash

Hi All, Can you please tell me which documents do we need to submit to the CA Board of pharmacy after completing intern hours? Is it just the Intern hours affidavit signed by your preceptor? Do we need to send the original or xerox? Also do we need to send anything to NABP? If someone could go over the procedure on how to proceed with NAPLEX application process, I would really appreciate it. Thanks, Ankash.

Hi Ninah, Can you tell me where did you complete your internship from? Do they have any current opening for pharmacy interns? If so, I am interested as I have received my intern license from CSBP. If you could find out from your employer, it would be very nice of you. Please let me know asap. Thanks in advance.....Please PM me.... - Ankash

Hey Kitos, You go their website NABP National Association of Boards of Pharmacy and go to the tab "Publications". Click on PPAD. Then click on FPGEC and check for your name by putting in your last name or your EE number. Hope you got it.....

Hey bkk1377, That's cool! One more hurdle down.....Now for the license and the internship.....lets see how much time that takes.... All The Best to You! BTW, which state are you in?

Hey Guys, I have just received my FPGEC certificate! :):):):):) I did see my name online on the website on Friday also I am very happy to see it..... Did you guys receive your certificates? Hope you receive it soon too......:tup:

Hey Durgae, Right now, i am doing nothing but waiting for my certificate. You cannot work in a pharmacy till you have an intern or a technician license. If you have a technician license, you can definitely work as a pharmacy technician. If not, just appear for TOEFL, give it your best shot and then once done, wait for your FPGEC certificate, apply for your license and then start working as a pharmacy intern. Hey, I just called NABP to find out about my FPGEC certificate status and they told me that it has been mailed out to me yesterday.....I am feeling ecstatic now.....just can't wait to see it in my hands now.....

Hi Guys, I too am sailing in the same boat. NABP has received my TOEFL scores on Feb 17th. It has been more than 5 weeks now but no sign of my FPGEC by mail or on the NABP site. I wonder what takes NABP so long to issue our certificates. They are such lazy people who only know to procrastinate things for us potential pharmacists. They are just getting onto our nerves now..... Anyways, we can't do anything but wait as the power is in wrong hands.... Let me know when you guys hear from them and I will keep you informed of mine. Hope our certificates reach us soon.....

Hi Cocopharm, It would be nice if you could forward to me too, one of the resume formats you receive for pharmacy interns. You can PM me or email me on johnried@hotmail.com Thanks in advance.

Hi, Do u guys have any idea of the pay scale of a pharmacy intern in Northern CA? Also, how easy would it be for me to get internship (as a pharmacy intern), if I have my work permit and my FPGEC? Is getting internship fairly easy in my case? Which chains of pharmacy are actively hiring pharmacy interns of late?

Hey Guys, I hope they reduce the requirement of speaking score by atleast 2 points. Lets hope for some positive outcome. By the way, does anyone know when do they usually release the newsletter for a particular month? I mean what date?

Hey Guys, Has anyone received updates from NABP regarding the meeting of NABP and ETS which was going to take place on Oct 28-29 regarding the problems pharmacists are facing in US? If anyone has any knowledge about the same, please let us know the action or decision that NABP has taken.

Yes, Tseprep, I did get my results of 23rd Aug. Why do you ask so?

Thanks Ve boss for the magic template. I will surely try it out.

Hey Gsmir, I think it takes about 2-3 weeks from the date of re-score service requested as per the system.(which is usually 1 week after you have faxed ETS your re-score form) . Well, I think there definitely is a chance for your score to go up by one point each in speaking and writing section. The probabilities are pretty high for you. All The Best!

Hey Houston, May be its worth trying. I would say go for it!

Hey Shhaly, I applied for re-scoring yesterday itself as soon as I got my result in the system. Well, I think it takes about 2-3 weeks from the date of re-score service requested as per the system.(which is usually 1 week after you have faxed ETS your re-score form) Hope you clear it in re-scoring! All the Best!
