Hey Everyone.
I am an M.Pharm. Graduate. (Masters in Pharmacy) (Pharmacology) from India. I wanted to know if I am eligible to give the FPGEE Exam for the USA? I checked the NABP website and bulletin for this but I didn't feel that it's clearly mentioned for my case so I couldn't understand. Clear answers would be a good help and I'd really appreciate. Thank You!

Hi, I know masters in clinical pharmacy and pharmacotherapeutics does count for FPGEE. I am not sure if pharmacology would, but worth a try. I think they will consider it. Just apply in next cycle. If they deny you, you will only have to pay for evaluation and you will get rest of the money back. I know a few who got eligibility based on masters degree. Just submit a nice detailed transcript of your curriculum of M. Pharm.

Want my advice. Use your mpharm to get into a pharmaceutical company. Why bother being a pharmacist? Even native pharmacists hate it.

I would say try atleast. You need to eval your degrees from ECE first and then apply for NABP. If you do not qualify for FPGEE, then I think NABP refunds some of your money back.

NAPA does NOT consider master's level degree in pharmacy. They only look for a bachelor of pharmacy degree if you are educated outside Canada or US.

What was the FPGEC outcome with the Master of Clinical pharmacy degree?
