National pharmacy test back on after UGA prof suit

A national licensing exam for pharmacists can be used again, after it was suspended more than a month ago. The National Association of Boards of Pharmacy has re-instated the test, after its use was stopped in late August. The Association accused a University of Georgia professor of giving test questions to his students. Starting today, the national one-time exam given to pharmacists leaving graduate school is back in effect. However, the national association says re-instatement of a Georgia pharmacy exam won’t happen until late November or early December. The association filed a lawsuit against UGA professor Flynn Warren Jr. The suit alleges Warren asked students to memorize test questions and share with him so he could create a review packet for students.
