Copy of Letter send to NABP

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hey guys ,
Posting the copy of letter I send to NABP.

TO NABP Board members,
I am a foreign pharmacy graduate (July 2003). I would like to put forward my problem in front of you. Due to the change of FPGEE after Jan 2003, I’m not eligible to take FPGEE. I understand that you have made the changes to meet the US pharmacy school program. But there are few questions I would like NABP to address...

1) What is the Difference between 2002 graduated and 2003 Graduated Bahelor of Pharmcy students.

2) Senior students from (pharmacy college where I graduated, INDIA), who graduated in 2002 with the same course work (classes) that I took are eligible, so my question is how in the world they are eligible to take FPGEE am I we are not?

3) I have contacted NABP few times, only answer I got from operator was to call my State board, after calling states (I have called all the states board of pharmacy in US) The states board’s answer was to contact NABP, It is very hard for me because Its feel like I’m in third world country (where no one want to answer poor student’s question) not in US.

4) There are foreign students who pass FPGEE in first try and others who take more than 5 tries. So why not give a chance to the students like me to take FPGEE may be one time?

5) Foreign students (graduated before Jan 2003) would become pharmacists by passing FPGEE and NAPLEX, So, my question is why NABP prefer them to do better job then foreign students who graduated after JAN 2003?

6) I have contacted 90+ pharmacy college and most of them want me to study 4+ year, which mean they do not recognized my Pharmacy study, and want me to repeat four year again.

I would appreciate if NABP’s board member would take their valuable time and talk on this issue and give us an alterative. Like
1) Transfer my credits from India and study reaming course here in US and then take FPGEE instead of repeating the same subjects again.
2) May be take some kind of Exam that would test our knowledge and make us eligible to take FPGEE.

Thank you
Sincerely,

hi,

u did master of pharmacy in india or U.S? if it is in U.S ,dont u have jobs in pharmaceutical industries because i am planning to do masters in U.S thinking that atleast we can work in industries as there is no option of working in pharmacies other than doing pharmD which is so expensive with time and money, if u know anything related information about industrial jobs, please pass to everyone.

u have the option of doing pharmD IN 2.5 YEARS in florida unversity which i have read in these forums only, u just get through all the questions u will find the website info of florida university.

thanks,
krishn
