The challenge

The PEBC Qualifying Examination Part I (MCQ): 200 questions in a fixed time, and a licence that depends on the result.

  • The exam covers pharmacology, calculations, dispensing and pharmacy law. Textbooks do not tell you what PEBC actually asks.
  • 200 questions in 270 minutes leave about 81 seconds per question. Speed has to be trained, not hoped for.
  • The question style is specific: clinical scenarios, best-answer choices and distractors that look right.
  • Working full time leaves little room to plan revision, and a retake costs months of waiting and another exam fee.

How MediFlow solves it

  • A question bank built on the published content of PEBC, organised by topic, so you know what matters.
  • Timed mock exams in the real exam format train your pace before the real day.
  • Every answer is explained, including why the other options are wrong.
  • A study plan up to your exam date tells you what to do each day and brings weak topics back for review.
