About the PEBC Part I (MCQ) Exam
The PEBC Pharmacist Qualifying Examination - Part I (MCQ) is the multiple-choice component of the national licensing examination required to register as a pharmacist in Canada (except Quebec, which has its own process). It is a single-day, computer-based exam of 200 questions taken at a Prometric test centre or by remote proctoring in English or French, and it is the written counterpart to Part II, the Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE). The exam is built to a blueprint based on the 2024 NAPRA Professional Competencies for Canadian Pharmacists at Entry to Practice, covering six competency areas, with Providing Care: Clinical Care carrying the highest weight, followed by Product Distribution. Questions blend standalone items with case-based clusters and emphasize applying knowledge to make safe clinical and dispensing decisions rather than recalling isolated facts. The exam is criterion-referenced with no fixed pass percentage. International pharmacy graduates now go from PEBC Document Evaluation directly to Part I; the separate Pharmacist Evaluating Examination was last held in October 2026.
Exam sponsor: Pharmacy Examining Board of Canada (PEBC), delivered by Prometric at test centres or by remote proctoring. The requirements and fees below concern the certification or admission exam, separate from our free practice resources.
Assessment
A single-day, computer-based multiple-choice examination of 200 single-best-answer questions (150 scored, 50 pretest) in one section with no scheduled break. Items are a mix of standalone and case-based questions, each assessing one specific NAPRA entry-to-practice competency.
Time Limit
About 4 hours 30 minutes in total: one 260-minute section plus a post-exam survey, at a Prometric test centre or by remote proctoring.
Passing Score
No fixed pass percentage is published. Each question is worth one mark; practitioner experts set the pass/fail standard in June 2016, and equating sets how many correct answers each new exam needs to meet that same standard.
Exam / Certification Fees
CAD $870 (2027 fee) for the Pharmacist Qualifying Examination - Part I (MCQ), paid to PEBC. Prometric rescheduling or cancellation is about $60 plus HST (no fee 30 or more days ahead), and re-scoring (hand scoring) is $100.
