If you’re gearing up for the 2026 BCPS exam, there are some important updates that you’ll definitely want to know about. Exam results reporting has changed while the content outline, continuous testing options, and exam format have largely remained the same from 2025.

How Long Does It Take To Get My BCPS Exam Results?

Let’s start with the biggest BPS change first. One of the most common questions I get asked is “How long will it take to get my results?”. As of January 1st, 2026, BCPS exam results will now be available immediately after you finish the test! In previous years, pharmacists had to wait up to two months for results — a long, nerve-wracking period that often stretched into the holidays for the fall testing period. Now, as soon as you click “submit,” you’ll know your outcome. This change eliminates one of the most stressful parts of the certification process.

The BCPS content outline has not changes from 2025 to 2026. On the MedEd101 side, we’ve rolled out over 20 updated BCPS topic videos for 2026. These updates reflect:

• The latest clinical guidelines across cardiology, infectious disease, endocrinology, and much more
