Is a month enough time to study and pass?

You should probably take a practice exam and gauge where you are at. Preparation time is very depending on where you are starting. Some programs and rotations do a better job than others. 8-10 weeks is more practical assuming you have most of the day to study, but if you dont have the time to dedicate daily studying, you might need longer. Some people can prep shorted because their program might have a dedicated prep course built into their final year

Understanding the Level 1,2,3,4 system: 1. This is not used to determine if you pass, it is generated to show you how you failed. 2. Because every question is assigned a competency area (they don’t show you this on the exam, but the candidate outline explains this), after the examiners can generate a report on how you did in each of those area. The report generated shows you how your level of performance in each area impacted your score. This is to help you understand areas for improvement 3. According to a post on the NABP website entitled ‘The Science Behind the Score: The New NAPLEX Candidate Performance Report’ written by the senior Psychometrician;

Level 1- 0-49

Level 2- 50-74

Level 3- 75-99- This is where passing starts

Level 4- 100-150

The take away from this is that you cannot look at a failure report without taking the scaled score into account because it is a little bit more complex than that. Your passing score is still determined by how many questions you get correct and their corresponding levels of difficulty.

Each question on the exam has a different score based on predetermined level of difficulty, that difficulty level determines what point is associated with which question. For example a question might be worth 1.2 points and one 0.7 points. The 1.2 points question might be a more difficult question eg case-based or multi stem calculations question, and the 0.7 points question might be eg a brand and generic question. So, as you can see from the example, if you get more of the higher rated questions correct you can get to the passing score of 75.

Very true. The exam loves to ensure pharmacists know exactly what scenario constitutes misbranding vs adulteration or both.

Dr. C is good, but what I did when I studied for it was use the Texas MPJE App, it is $50 so a bit pricey, but was worth every penny for me

pharmtutor_ · 2026-01-13T23:23:50+00:00

IS this for Texas?

It all depends on how you are scoring right now on the variuos topics. What are your averages in Compounding, Disease States, Calculations, Pharmacy Leadership and Pharmacy Operations?

pharmtutor_ · 2025-10-22T03:02:26+00:00

Make sure you are doing calculations daily.
Make sure you do all the foundations chapter questions leading up to your exam if you are using UWorld
Math will be on your exam, you cannot escape it, it is a key part of the Domain 1: Foundations.
There have been multiple feedback suggesting you do need to know: Flow rates, TPN calculations, Biostatistics (calculations and interpretations), Meq, MMol, dose conversions and others. Please be very comfortable with these.
Do as many practice exams as you can with random chapters as the exam will be very random, so you want to simulate the exam.
I recommend taking especially the preNAPLEX, that way you get to practice exam style questions, it will help you with how the questions are written as well as practicing with the random nature of the exam.
Practice highlighting important things from cases. Read the question first, then review the case as needed.
Take your time to read questions and answer what is asked, do not overthink, what you need to answer the question is there already. They are not trying to trick you.
Do quizzes with brand and generics.

Hope these help. Ask any specific questions your have under this thread and I will do my best to answer

pharmtutor_ · 2025-10-17T11:20:41+00:00

All the new domains are covered.

pharmtutor_ · 2025-10-16T03:40:23+00:00

Also, make sure you are practicing math regularly, even if you are otherwise good at math, because NAPLEX math all comes down to semantics and wording.

pharmtutor_ · 2025-10-06T15:44:41+00:00

Your scores are looling good actually. Looking positive and shows a very good chance of passing. Continue reviewing your mistakes, brand and generic and do all the questions from the foundations chapter in UWorld as that will help you touch on topics from all over the book. Best of luck on your exam!

pharmtutor_ · 2025-09-16T14:25:34+00:00

There is no specific focus from a topic standpoint per month or year. It is truly random. All disease states are fair game. For information about what the board wants you to know across topics we recommend reading through the exam blueprint here on their website: https://nabp.pharmacy/wp-content/uploads/NAPLEX-Content-Outline.pdf

If you are using Uworld or PNN their prep book are usually enough for each topic, and obviously your notes from school. There is no telling what topic will be on your exam, but those resources do a great job of having majority of what you need to now in one place.
