REPORTING A CHANGE OF ADDRESS

It is your responsibility to ensure that NABNE has your current mailing address. Without your current mailing address, NABNE cannot be responsible for ensuring that you receive your exam results in a timely manner. If you have had a change of address since the time you submitted your application to take the February 2023 NPLEX Examinations, you must notify NABNE via the Address Change form.

REPORTING OF FEBRUARY 2023 NPLEX EXAM RESULTS

Approximately six (6) weeks after the exam administration, your unofficial exam results (Pass/Fail only) will be posted to your online Profile. You will be notified by email when your results can be viewed online.

NABNE will make every attempt to ensure that the exam results posted online are correct. Given the inherent hazards of electronic distribution, and because implementation of this feature will require manual transfer of data (which introduces the possibility of human error), NABNE cannot guarantee that the information posted online is accurate.

The official hard copy of your NPLEX exam results will be sent to you by regular mail within the following week.  The official hard copy of the NPLEX exam result(s) sent to you in the mail will provide accurate and detailed information.  The official report of exam results includes a visual scale that illustrates how you performed relative to the cut score in each general exam area. If you failed the examination, the report will also include a visual scale that illustrates the strength of your performance in each specific exam area (SEA) relative to how you performed in the other SEAs. If you took any or all of the Part II – Clinical Elective Examinations (Acupuncture, Elective Pharmacology, Minor Surgery, or Parenteral Medicine), the report will include a section that shows a P (Pass) or F (Fail) designation, along with the converted score(s) you achieved on any or all of these examinations.

If you took the NPLEX Part II – Clinical Science Examinations, NABNE will also send an official copy of your exam results to the single regulatory authority you indicated on your Part II – Clinical Science Examination Application. Please note that there will be approximately two weeks between the time exam results have been posted online and when they are received by the regulatory authorities. Calls/emails to NABNE during this time will not expedite the time it takes for you to be issued a license to practice.

To avoid possible misinterpretation and to protect your privacy, exam results will not be reported by telephone, fax, or e-mail.

REQUESTING TRANSCRIPTS

After you receive your results from the current NPLEX administration, you may request to have a transcript that includes both your NPLEX Part I and Part II exam results sent to additional regulatory authorities. Submit your Transcript Request and payment of US$30 online. Transcript requests are typically processed within 3-5 business days of receipt.

Official transcripts of NPLEX exam results must be sent directly from NABNE. A transcript sent directly to you will be unofficial and will be noted as such.

REQUESTING A MANUAL SCORING

If you would like to receive a Manual Scoring of an examination you took in February 2023, your request and payment must be made online no later than April 30, 2023. The Manual Scoring Fee of US$50 for the Part I – Biomedical Science Examination, US$70 for the Part II – Core Clinical Science Examination, and US$40 for each Part II – Clinical Elective Examination must be paid using a debit or credit card.

APPLICATION TO TAKE THE AUGUST 2023 NPLEX EXAMINATIONS

The period for application to take the August 2023 NPLEX Examinations will be open from May 1-31, 2023. If you are planning to take the NPLEX Examinations in August 2023, you may create an online profile and submit your application and fees during that time only.
