Summary
Commissioners and an agent completed a state-specific review and pretest item selection for the MPJE, reporting they reviewed thousands of candidate items and noting the Commission's updated law book and website as tools supporting candidate preparation.
Commissioners Kristen Linder and Commissioner Guante, together with agent Rachel Brown, reported on the annual state-specific review and pretest item selection for the Multistate Pharmacy Jurisprudence Examination (MPJE). Commissioner Guante said the team reviewed a large volume of questions and characterized the exercise as an annual effort to select items for the state's data bank. "I just totaled up in total, the 3 of us, reviewed 3,338 questions," Guante said.
The commissioners noted that the Commission's law book is updated (current to May 2025) and that the Drug Control website includes recent pharmacy law changes. Speakers suggested these resources likely helped MPJE performance: representatives of UConn's Dean's Advisory Board reported recent cycles show pass-rate improvement. The item-review work is a recurring, nonvoting administrative task for the Commission's exam-preparation duties.
No formal vote was required for the item review update; the report was provided as information to the Commission.
