NAPLEX Advantage
To help assess your readiness for the NAPLEX®, your college of pharmacy may offer the NAPLEX Advantage tool. NAPLEX Advantage features a practice exam experience similar to that of the actual high-stakes exam day as well as comprehensive performance reports. NAPLEX Advantage is only available for purchase by colleges of pharmacy; it is not available for purchase by individual students. The Pre-NAPLEX practice exam continues to be an affordable, helpful resource to help you prepare for taking the NAPLEX.
NAPLEX Advantage Key Features
If your college of pharmacy has purchased the tool, you can look forward to the following benefits.
Exam-day Experience
The practice exam is delivered by your college in a closed, secured testing environment with an ID verification and check-in process for an experience that is closer to sitting for the actual NAPLEX.
Unique Practice Exam
All the questions on the NAPLEX Advantage were previously used on past NAPLEX exams. Items are exclusive to NAPLEX Advantage and are not included on any stand-alone Pre-NAPLEX tests.
Performance Data
You will receive a performance report that includes your overall scaled score as well as a breakdown of your performance across each of the NAPLEX competency areas. The reports are provided for both pass and fail results.

Set Up Your Computer
Your college administrator will provide you with information before the proctored session.

ExamStudio Secure Browser must be pre-installed before the day of the practice exam. Note that the exam software is not compatible with tablets.
Exam Results
You will receive your results approximately 1-2 business days after taking the Advantage practice exam. To access your results, log in to your NABP e-Profile and select the Practice Exams section.
