My personal experience on KAPS Exam: Road to Australian Pharmacist

Disclaimer: Please check the official website of Australian Pharmacy Council to be guided accordingly. These are just my personal experiences.
The exam center is in Pearsons Test Center Makati City, Philippines.
Took the exam last July 2021, and had the results September 2021.
KAPS FEE: 2140 AUD (during my time) not 2110 AUD (old price)

Hi thank you for sharing your experience! I don't speak your language but bit by bit I could understand your point, I appreciate it! 😁 I wonder what kind of visa did you take during the intern training program at uni? I found out that the ITP program require us to have an internship position. Does student visa eligible for the ITP? Because student working hour is now limited to 48H fortnight. Or do we have to apply other kind of visa? Thank youuu~

[@anelexine8783]

Student visa shouldnt be used for ITP dear it should be atleast full time workkng hrs wth 1yr validity-- only on my own opinion..

[@eddkuo747]
