The written exam!
Tomorrow are my written final exams.
I'm not that nervous (yet), but I can write more after that!
Going to rewrite my beginners driving test AGAIN because the one I have now expires the end of the month and I don’t have time to practice and DO the road test.

How to Register and Prepare for the Australian Intern Exam
Introduction
Becoming a pharmacist in Australia involves several steps, particularly for overseas pharmacists from countries like India, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, and others. The journey begins with the Knowledge stream, which includes an assessment of the pharmacist’s qualifications to ensure they meet Australian standards. After document verification, candidates can take the OPRA exam.
Upon clearing the OPRA exam and meeting the English language proficiency requirements, candidates can apply for a visa. Once the visa is granted, they must complete 1,575 hours of supervised practice. After completing 75% of the required hours, candidates become eligible for the Australian Intern Written Exam, followed by the Intern Oral Exam. Passing the written exam is a critical milestone in becoming a fully registered pharmacist in Australia. Here’s a guide to help you navigate this process.
Eligibility for the Intern Written Exam
To be eligible for the Intern Written Exam, you must:
Be provisionally registered with the Pharmacy Board of Australia (PharmBA) or have been registered in the past.
Have completed at least 75% of the required supervised practice hours for general registration, or be on track to complete them by the exam date.
Failure to meet the required hours after registration will result in a cancellation fee.
