OK! I have been through all the threads about foreign Pharmacy graduates and here are my questions-
1) I am a US Citizen and I did my Bachelors in Pharmacy(4 year degree) in India and Graduated in 2013. I enrolled in a 2 year Masters in Pharmacy degree( specialised in Pharmacology) in India, which i will be graduating from in 2015. I want to give my FPGEE but i am alittle worried since every thread i have read said that a foreign pharmacy graduate needed a 5 year bachelors course to give the FPGEE. Does it help that i have a masters degree? Do the 2 years add onto the 4 year course and make me eligible to give the FPGEE?

2)If not, what are my options?? (I do not want my 6 years of hard work to go to waste. It definitely was not easy getting these two degrees)

3) I am a registered Pharmacist in India. Can i use my Registered Pharmacist certificate to validate my education and obtain a license in the US?

Pretty sure you will have to go back to pharmacy school. Sorry.
 
Carboxide is right, you have to go back to pharmacy school here. No exception..
Now if I were you, I would just quit masters in India, move to States and do Masters and PhD here
