Guam is listed as sitting its own state-specific edition of the MPJE, but this one genuinely needs a second look — the sources disagree. Read the note below before you rely on it. That means the exam you book covers federal pharmacy law and Guam’s own statutes and board rules — not a general exam, and not another state’s.
What is different about Guam
Three sources, three answers. The board's FAQ says MPJE; its own application says only “Guam Jurisprudence Examination” and never mentions the NAPLEX; and 25 GAR § 13103 additionally requires a laboratory practice examination. Guam appears on no NABP exam list at all. Call the board.
What the exam looks like
Every figure above comes from NABP’s 2026 Candidate Application Bulletin, read 2026-10-01. Two things worth knowing that most prep sites still get wrong. There is no passing score to aim at any more: the Bulletin states plainly that “your exam results will be reported as either Pass or Fail – you will not receive a scaled score.” The scaled 75 you will find quoted elsewhere traces to a bulletin from 2020 and no longer appears. And answering at least 107 of the 120 questions is not optional — below that, no result is reported at all, and between 107 and 119 a penalty is applied for what you left unanswered.
What Guam tests that federal law does not
The federal layer is the same wherever you sit it: the Controlled Substances Act, the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, HIPAA, and the rest. What changes from one jurisdiction to the next is the part Guam writes for itself — the places where the state rule is tighter, slower, or simply different from the federal one. NABP makes no federal-versus-state split in the exam itself, so there is no fixed share to budget for; what there is, is state law you cannot guess from federal law.
That is where the questions come from, and it is where your study time earns the most:
- Licensing, renewal, continuing education and intern requirements
- Controlled substances — state schedules, the prescription monitoring program, partial fills and refill limits
- What a prescription must carry, how it must be labeled, and when substitution is allowed
- Who may work in the pharmacy, in what ratio, and under what supervision
- Record retention, inventory, and what happens when a pharmacy closes
- Grounds for discipline, and what you are obliged to report — and how fast
Where this came from. Every claim on this page traces to a source you can open yourself. This is the Guam page it came from:
Guam board of pharmacy — licensure FAQ
“In addition to completing the NAPLEX, Guam also requires all applicants to complete the Guam Multistate Jurisprudence Examination (MPJE).”

While you wait
Three things on this site are free and will help you whichever jurisdiction you are sitting:
- The federal pharmacy law guide — the part of the exam that is identical everywhere.
- A four-week study method — how to break a jurisdiction’s law into something you can actually revise.
- The exam-by-state map — which law exam each of the 54 jurisdictions requires, kept current.
