The exam is state-specific, testing both federal law and the specific state's pharmacy regulations.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the MPJE pass rate?
The MPJE first-time pass rate is approximately 83-85% for US pharmacy graduates. Pass rates vary by state due to differences in state law complexity. Repeat pass rates are significantly lower. Most states require both NAPLEX and MPJE passage within a specific timeframe of each other.
How many questions are on the MPJE?
The MPJE contains 120 scored questions. You have 2 hours and 30 minutes to complete the exam. The exam is computer-based and administered at Pearson VUE testing centers. Questions cover federal pharmacy law and the specific state's pharmacy regulations.
What is the MPJE passing score?
The MPJE passing score is 75 on a scaled score. Unlike some other exams, there is no partial credit - you must achieve the full passing score in one attempt. Each state sets its own passing requirement, though most use 75.
Is the MPJE the same in every state?
No, each state has its own MPJE version that tests both federal pharmacy law and that state's specific pharmacy regulations. You must take the MPJE for each state where you seek licensure. However, starting January 2026, NABP is introducing the Uniform MPJE (UMPJE) which will eventually replace individual state MPJEs.
How should I prepare for the MPJE?
Focus on three areas: (1) Federal pharmacy law (Controlled Substances Act, DEA regulations, OBRA '90, HIPAA, Medicare/Medicaid), (2) Your specific state's pharmacy laws (practice act, regulations, board rules), and (3) Legal reasoning - many questions present scenarios requiring application of law. Review your state's pharmacy practice act and regulations thoroughly.
What is the difference between MPJE and UMPJE?
The current MPJE is state-specific, requiring separate exams for each state. The Uniform MPJE (UMPJE), launching in 2026, will be a single exam testing core pharmacy law knowledge applicable across all participating states. The UMPJE aims to reduce redundancy and facilitate licensure portability through NABP's Passport program.
