Many of you weren't kidding when you said many of the questions came out of left field on the MPJE. I have never left an exam, either standardized, computer-adaptive or academic more convinced of a failing grade than I did today. It seemed like a huge series of questions contained answers that were all viable, yet somehow I was supposed to choose the MOST correct answer. The best way to describe this test in one word is arbitrary. I have no idea how the passing rate for this exam is so high when I'm guessing half the time. I bet the test proctors were having a field day watching me on camera in the testing room. I must've put my hands on my head or raised my arms in disbelief every 3rd or 4th question.


I better start studying again...

I took the mpje before naplex and i felt the same way that you are feeling right now while waiting for the results. I can only remember 2 questions that i did not guessed on and all of the questions were really out of this world! BUT upon receiving the results i so happy i passed i don't know how but i did!!! I know you will too!!! Just relax!

I pretty much walked out and started laughing. I mean, there is nothing I could have done to prepare for that type of exam. Now I have to just wait for the verdict. I felt so happy last week passing the NAPLEX and this just brought me down to zero. *UGH* :scared:

Just got my score in the mail today. How the h-e-double hockey stick I got an 81, I have NO idea. I think the general consensus is that if you leave the exam insisting to yourself that you failed, you probably did OK. I was utterly convinced of a failure, but passed by a lot more than I thought.

Good luck to everyone taking exams soon!

I would be more than happy to answer any questions or address any concerns any of you might be having regarding the NAPLEX or MPJE. I found that the advice given to me on these forums saved my life. PM me anytime.

Funny that you ask me that. Moments before I checked these forums, I was on the phone with my state board wondering why my status had not changed even though I received both of my scores in the mail already. Crazy, eh? :laugh:

I felt like I failed. I think we all do in the case of the MPJE. Just relax. When I saw that envelope in the mail, my heart dropped. I knew my status hadn't changed yet. But I peered through the envelope saw the score. If anything, just call your state board and see what the hold up is.

I left thought I did really well on my MPJE, was happy for a week, got my score, barely passed, am still pretty happy. Granted the state i took the mpje was not the state I worked at during pharmacy school. moral: convince urself during the test you did well, and be happy. 🙂
