Campbell University pharmacy students have sustained their top ranking on first-time performance on national board exams. The class of 2007 reported 98.94 percent passage of the North American Pharmacist Licensure Exam (NAPLEX) and 98.23 percent passage on the Multi-State Pharmacy Jurisprudence Exam (MPJE). Both tests are administered by the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy. The purpose of the tests is to help state boards of pharmacy assess individual competency in both professional performance and the knowledge of federal and state-specific law in participating jurisdictions.”The Campbell School of Pharmacy’s class of 2007 represented the School in an exceptional manner,” said Dr. Ronald Maddox, dean of the School of Pharmacy. “These licensure examination results are due to tremendous work on the part of the students, faculty and preceptors. It is appropriate that we recognize these individuals for their excellence.”The Campbell University School of Pharmacy was established in 1986 as the first new school of pharmacy to open in the United States in 35 years. In 1990, the charter class distinguished itself with a 100 percent passage rate on state and national board examinations. Subsequent classes have maintained a record of 99 percent passage rate on the national board exam and 99 percent on state board exams. The school is a member of the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy. Additional courses are taught at the School of Pharmacy Department of Clinical Research located on Campbell University’s RTP campus.
