The page for all your EPPP-related questions
The EPPP (Examination for Professional Practice in Psychology) is one of the requirements for licensure as a psychologist in the United States and Canada. It is developed by the Association of State and Provincial Psychology Boards (ASPPB) with the assistance of Pearson VUE. The EPPP Candidate Handbook that describes the development and content of the EPPP and procedures for applying for and scheduling the exam is available on the ASPPB website:
The EPPP consists of 225 multiple-choice questions from eight different content domains. Of the 225 questions, 175 test items are scored, while 50 are pilot items and will not count toward your final score. You will not know which items are pilot items, which is why you should answer every question. You will have 4 hours and 15 minutes to complete the EPPP, unless you have accommodations. This equates to about a minute per question. There are no scheduled breaks during the EPPP; however, you may take a break if you need one. Keep in mind the clock on the allotted time for the exam will continue to run.
The EPPP covers eight content areas (i.e., domains).
1. Biological Bases of Behavior (10%)
2. Cognitive-affective Bases of Behavior (13%)
3. Social and Cultural Bases of Behavior (11%)
4. Growth and Lifespan Development (12%)
5. Assessment and Diagnosis (16%)
6. Treatment, Intervention, Prevention, and Supervision (15%)
7. Research Methods and Statistics (7%)
8. Ethical, Legal, and Professional Issues (16%)
Scores on the EPPP range from 200 to 800. The ASPPB has recommended that state and provincial licensing boards adopt a passing scaled score cutoff of 500 for independent practice and 450 for supervised practice. A scaled score of 500 is roughly equivalent to about 70% (122.5/175). A scaled score of 600 is about 80% (140/175), while 450 is approximately 65% (114/175).
There are four forms of the EPPP in circulation at any point in time. About every six months, one form is retired and a new form is introduced. The same scaled score represents equal levels of achievement, regardless of the exam form. If a student receives an easier form, they will have to answer more questions correctly to receive a 500; if a student receives a more difficult form, they will have to answer fewer questions correctly to receive a 500.
At the testing center, they will give you an "informal score report.” We have never known the informal score to change. The score report will not say whether you’ve passed. 500 is passing at the doctoral level.
Apply to your board as soon as you begin studying. Some state and provincial boards may take up to six months to process applications and grant approval to take the EPPP.
To take the EPPP, you must first apply in the state or province where you want to be licensed. The ASPPB’s website includes the contact information for each state/province:
https://www.asppb.net/page/BdContactNewPG.
Once you receive approval, the licensing authority (state/provincial board) will create an account with your information on an online EPPP registration system. You will then receive two automated emails that includes the steps for registration, at which point you will be able to pay and register for the exam. After you have paid, follow the link to Pearson VUE to schedule your EPPP. You will receive a confirmation email and Authorization to Test within 24 hours. If you do not receive this confirmation, contact Pearson VUE directly.
The EPPP is offered at Pearson VUE testing sites throughout the United States and Canada. You are required to bring two forms of ID with you to test. Make sure the name you register with matches your two forms of ID.
The eligibility period (i.e., the period in which you are eligible to test after being approved) is determined, and does vary, by state/provincial board. Use this link to find your board’s contact information: https://www.asppb.net/page/BdContactNewPG
Arrive 30 minutes before your testing appointment with a valid government ID and a second form of ID with a signature or recent photo (credit card counts). Make sure your first and last names on both IDs match the ones you registered with.
You will take the EPPP on a computer, but you won’t be required to have computer knowledge to do so. For five minutes before the exam starts, you will complete a tutorial that explains how to select answers and move from question to question. This time is not included in your exam time.
You can request earplugs or noise-cancelling headphones at the testing site. You will be given a plastic sheet and a marker to use during the EPPP. The sheet will be collected at the end of the test.
We strongly encourage you not to leave questions unanswered while taking the EPPP. You are not penalized for incorrect answers, so pick an answer for every question. The testing software allows you to bookmark any questions you are unsure of to go back to later, if time allows. If you leave questions blank and don’t have time to review them once you’ve finished the EPPP, then you have a 0% chance of getting them right! It is always better to make an educated guess before moving on to the next question, instead of leaving the question unanswered.
If you are almost out of time and realize you won’t be able to finish the EPPP (e.g., you have five minutes left and 30 questions remaining), we recommend you immediately select an answer for each remaining question. This improves your chances of correctly answering these questions from 0% (if left unanswered) to 25%.
Two. The EPPP is available in English and French. The French version of the EPPP (FEPPP) is only available to candidates whose boards legally require the availability of a French form of the exam.
State and provincial licensing boards are required to make reasonable accommodations for candidates with documented disabilities or impairments (including such issues as learning disorders, ADHD, a diagnosed anxiety disorder, eye problems, back pain, etc.). Some boards also make accommodations for candidates for whom English is a second language. Reasonable accommodations typically include taking the test in six hours and fifteen minutes.
Candidates who require testing accommodations must first submit necessary documents for proof of the need for accommodation to their board. The board will determine if accommodations are necessary, and if accommodations are granted this will be submitted to the ASPPB.
You must click a “Special Accommodations” box during the EPPP registration process. You cannot add accommodations to an exam after it has been scheduled.
The EPPP exam fee is $600, and the test site appointment fee is an additional $87.50. These fees will never be reimbursed.
You are, however, allowed to reschedule your exam. If you reschedule more than 30 days before your exam date (e.g., your exam is November 10 and you reschedule on October 9), you will not be required to pay another $87.50. If you reschedule less than 30 days, but more than 24 hours before your exam, you will have to pay an additional $87.50 to schedule your new exam, but you will not have to pay another $600. If you cancel within 24 hours of your exam date, fail to reschedule, or are late to your testing appointment, you will be required to pay another $687.50 (exam fee and appointment fee) to take the EPPP.
Typically, we suggest you schedule your test date when you are most of the way through the study process. For example, if you are following our 16-week study schedule and have been meeting your target scores, consider scheduling your test when you have a month left in your study process.
We highly recommend you wait until you are close to being ready to test before scheduling your EPPP. We suggest setting a test date after you have met first time target scores on PsychPrep’s Test C and Test D. However, if you schedule your EPPP early and then score below recommended targets, it is better to reschedule your exam and lose $87.50, than to fail the EPPP and pay $687.50 to retest.
ASPBB offers two different 100-item computer-administered sample EPPP exams (SEPPP) at Pearson VUE test center for $82.50 each. They also offer two different 100-item online sample EPPP exams (SEPPPO) that can be taken on your personal computer for $30 each. Students who take the SEPPP and SEPPPO will receive an overall percentage score. Note: If a student takes a either the SEPPP or SEPPPO for a third time, they will receive a version they have already taken.
A word of caution: Sample EPPP scores are not always predictive of EPPP performance. Candidates may pass the SEPPP or SEPPPO, but then fail the EPPP.
The ASBBP allows candidates to take the EPPP up to four times in a 12-month period. However, some states and provinces have stricter regulations. Please be sure to check with your board to determine whether there are any additional restrictions (e.g., some states or provinces only allow a total of three attempts on the EPPP).
To retake the EPPP, you will need to pay another $687.50 (exam fee and appointment fee).
Some jurisdictions may require the use of masks while testing. Please make sure to check if a mask is required in your jurisdiction. If it is, take PsychPrep’s Test E with a mask on.
Important Note: All candidates should mimic testing conditions as closely as possible while taking Test E for the first time.
The ASPPB was planning to require all states and provinces to adopt the EPPP (Part 2 — Skills) starting on January 1, 2026. As of October 2024, this is no longer the case. The only jurisdictions that currently require the EPPP (Part 2 — Skills) are the District of Columbia, Georgia, Nevada, Newfoundland and Labrador, Manitoba, and Guam. If you are not in one of these jurisdictions, you will not be required to take the EPPP (Part 2 — Skills).
The EPPP (Part 2 — Skills) covers six domains:
1. Scientific orientation and practice (6%)
2. Assessment and intervention (33%)
3. Relational competence (16%)
4. Professionalism (11%)
5. Ethical practice (17%)
6. Collaboration, consultation, and supervision (17%)
There are 170 questions total – 130 scored, 40 pilot items. The 40 pilot items do not count toward your score. You cannot take the EPPP (Part 2) unless you have taken the EPPP (Part 1) and passed.
Information about the EPPP 2 is available on the ASPPPB website: https://www.asppb.net/page/EPPPPart2-Skills
PsychPrep has an EPPP pass rate of 90%. Program participants who work with an expert feedback consultant via email tend to take the EPPP in less time and pass with more confidence. Feedback is available to all students who sign up for the Basic Package, Basic Package Plus, or Premium Package.
Since it is not possible to guarantee that participants will pass the EPPP, we do not offer a pass guarantee. However, if you do fail, we will set you up with fresh access to PsychPrep’s tests (upon request) while your subscription is active. Additionally, if your subscription has expired within the last 30 days, or is set to expire within the next month, we will give you an additional month of access at no charge (upon request).
We are sorry to hear you did not pass the EPPP. We recommend you first watch or virtually attend our free EPPP Strategies Seminar. To watch a pre-recorded version immediately, sign up for the EPPP Sample Package. If you wish to attend the seminar live, register for the EPPP Strategies Seminar. This seminar covers our effective test-taking strategy, the importance of critical thinking, and the most efficient way to prepare for and pass the EPPP. If you choose to switch to PsychPrep and purchase one of our EPPP packages, we highly recommend you utilize our email feedback program. One of our consultants will provide ongoing guidance, including tailoring the program as needed based on your unique situation and individual progress.
PsychPrep’s email feedback program provides an opportunity to build a one-on-one relationship with an assigned consultant who will provide you with support and clear steps to help you pass the EPPP. Your consultant will offer ongoing guidance based on your unique situation and progress. Program participants have described increased confidence and accountability as some of the key benefits of using email feedback. PsychPrep’s expert feedback program is included with the purchase of the Basic Package, Basic Package Plus, or Premium Package.
The typical timeframe for EPPP test prep is three to four months. If possible, we recommend you study 10-20 hours per week spread throughout the week rather than cramming your weekly study time into one or two days. PsychPrep provides a 16-week EPPP study schedule with every package, as well as a one-month schedule for those who purchase a one-month subscription. The 16-week study schedule can be adjusted to fit a shorter or longer timeframe. If you would like to do this, we highly recommend you work with one of our email feedback consultants, as they are experts in spacing tests to optimize learning.
PSYCHPREP has intentionally designed a specific order for taking the tests that ensures mastery of earlier test questions and contributes to higher scores on subsequent tests. You should not take all the tests in Study Mode first (e.g., Test A through Test E), then all the tests in Retake Mode, and then all the tests in Test Mode. Instead, we encourage you to follow the recommended sequence for completing the tests and quizzes presented in the structured sample study schedule located on your LMS account. All tests should be taken without referring to any notes, readings, or other resources (i.e., “closed book”).
First time target scores
Test A – Test A establishes your baseline. If you are new to studying for the EPPP a score between 90/200 – 110/200 is common. A score below 90 is not a cause for concern, but an indicator that more time may be required to complete the study process.
Test B – The Test B target is typically 10 – 15 points higher than the score on Test A.
Test C – The target for Test C is generally 125/200
Test D – The target for Test D is 130/200 – 135/200
Test E – The target for Test E is also 130/200 – 135/200
Second time target scores
When taking each test for the second time, the target is to miss fewer than half as many questions as were missed the first time.
Third time target scores
When taking a test for the third time, the target is 95%, indicative of mastery.
Our tests are not set to be taken an unlimited number of times. We have purposefully designed our tests to be taken three times each to ensure you are truly mastering the content versus memorizing the questions. If targets are not met, additional access can be requested.
For a more detailed description, please review our EPPP Strategies Handout included in the EPPP Sample Package, the EPPP Strategies Seminar, and with all purchases.
To accomplish your goal of passing the EPPP, and to do so efficiently, it is important to be clear on exactly what the EPPP is—a test of critical thinking. While a solid foundation of content knowledge is essential, it is not sufficient for passing the EPPP. PsychPrep’s test-taking strategies facilitate answering questions about unfamiliar content that appear on the EPPP—content that is not included in any EPPP prep program’s materials.
There are eight domains on the EPPP, however, several of the EPPP domains include content from very diverse areas. For example, the domain of assessment and diagnosis includes test construction, the DSM-5, test instruments (e.g., WAIS, MMPI), assessments within organizations, etc. Since, it wouldn’t make sense to lump all these diverse areas into one content section for the learning process, PsychPrep’s EPPP study materials are divided similarly to what you would find in graduate school.
PsychPrep’s content sections are:
Chapter 1: Learning Theory
Chapter 2: Biological Bases of Behavior
Chapter 3: Ethics
Chapter 4: Industrial/Organizational
Chapter 5: Interventions
Chapter 6: Research Design & Statistics
Chapter 7: Social & Multicultural
Chapter 8: Developmental
Chapter 9: Test Construction
Chapter 10: DSM-5-TR
Chapter 11: Assessment
Chapter 12: Memory
PsychPrep includes an Industrial/Organizational section because even though I/O is not an EPPP domain, I/O questions are part of all eight EPPP domains (e.g., the cognitive-affective domain includes I/O theories of motivation). Check out Myth #6 on ASPPB’s website: https://www.asppb.net/page/MythsvsReality
PsychPrep does provide a breakdown of practice test scores by content domain. However, it is important to note that candidates have a different breakdown of strengths and weaknesses from practice test to practice test (regardless of which EPPP prep materials they use), and even from EPPP to EPPP. We recommend you not target specific content areas based on how you do on practice tests. What best predicts readiness and EPPP success is meeting overall practice test score targets.
PsychPrep’s practice tests include questions from each content domain in equal proportion to what you will find on the EPPP. Our tests are progressive in difficulty, with tests C, D, and E typically as challenging as the EPPP. PsychPrep’s tests cover many of the concepts you will likely see on the EPPP, but the questions will not be identical. You will also see questions about content you have never studied, regardless of which EPPP preparation program you use. This is why we emphasize the importance of developing test-taking skills in addition to content mastery.
PsychPrep does not have flashcards and we generally do not recommend them because they encourage rote memorization, while the EPPP tests your ability to think critically about core concepts. We have found that time spent creating and/or studying a large volume of flashcards diminishes efficiency. Nevertheless, making a few flashcards for difficult terms can be helpful.
PsychPrep offers three EPPP packages.
Our Basic Package builds test-taking and critical thinking skills through our EPPP Mastery Workshop (pre-recorded video home study) and 5 full-length practice tests. This package is the best option if you have a solid handle on content. Additionally, if you’ve studied with another company and want extra test practice, choose the Basic Package. It is available as a one-month and six-month subscription and can be renewed after the subscription ends.
Our Basic Package Plus includes all features of the Basic Package, as well as our clear and concise study materials. If you need to improve both your test-taking and content knowledge, at a minimum, we recommend the Basic Package Plus. It is also available as a one-month and six-month subscription and can be renewed after the subscription ends.
Our all-inclusive Premium Package contains all features of the Basic Package Plus, as well as the 15-week course audio recording, and the option to attend the EPPP Mastery Workshop Live virtually. In the 15-week audio, Dr. Jablon teaches content and reviews questions chapter-by-chapter. The audio is downloadable, so you can listen anytime on-the-go. If you attend the EPPP Mastery Workshop Live virtually you will have the opportunity to ask questions and receive feedback from Dr. Jablon directly. We highly recommend this package for first-time test-takers and anyone struggling with the EPPP. It is available as a one-month and nine-month subscription and can be renewed after the subscription ends. The nine-month subscription is the best deal as it includes longer access and a reduced renewal fee.
PsychPrep offers two products for purchase individually—The EPPP Mastery Workshop and the 15-Week Course Audio Recording.
The EPPP Mastery Workshop is available live (virtual) or as a pre-recorded video home study. It is a core component of the study process that focuses on enhancing test-taking skills and deepening content knowledge. The workshop has been shown to boost participants scaled scores by 50+ points!
The 15-Week Course Audio Recording includes 38 hours of downloadable audio of chapter-by-chapter lectures with Sharon Jablon, Ph.D. These lectures cover pertinent concepts from all EPPP domains as well as 200 questions and rationales reviewed by content area. Each lecture includes short tracks so you can focus on a few topics at a time. Once downloaded, the audio can be saved and stored on your device of choice.
If you are a first-time test-taker or have been struggling with the EPPP, we recommend our Premium Package. It offers the best value and longest subscription.
If you need to improve your test-taking and content knowledge, at a minimum, we recommend our Basic Package Plus.
If you already have a solid handle on content or if you’ve studied with another company and want extra test practice, we recommend our Basic Package.

We strongly recommend you start your study process with PsychPrep’s ‘EPPP Strategies Seminar Handouts and Videos’ located in the ‘EPPP -- Get Started Here!’ section.
PSYCHPREP has intentionally designed a specific order for taking the tests that ensures mastery of earlier test questions and contributes to higher scores on subsequent tests. You should not take all the tests in Study Mode first (e.g., Test A through Test E), then all the tests in Retake Mode, and then all the tests in Test Mode. Instead, we encourage you to follow the recommended sequence for completing the tests and quizzes presented in the structured sample study schedule located on your LMS account. All tests should be taken without referring to any notes, readings, or other resources (i.e., “closed book”).
PsychPrep provides first time, second time, and third time target scores for all tests (Test A – Test E). While there are no first-time targets for the Chapter Quiz Questions and the EPPP Mastery Workshop questions, the second-time and third-time target scores apply.
First time target scores
Test A – Test A establishes your baseline. If you are new to studying for the EPPP a score between 90/200 – 110/200 is common. A score below 90 is not cause for concern, but an indicator that more time may be required to complete the study process.
Test B – The Test B target is typically 10 – 15 points higher than the score on Test A.
Test C – The target for Test C is generally 125/200.
Test D – The target for Test D is 130/200 – 135/200.
Test E – The target for Test E is also 130/200 – 135/200.
Second time target scores
When taking each test for the second time, the target is to miss fewer than half as many questions, as were missed the first time.
Third time target scores

Our tests are not set to be taken an unlimited number of times. We have purposefully designed our tests to be taken three times each to ensure you are truly mastering the content versus memorizing the questions. If targets are not met, additional access can be requested.
Consistently meeting target scores is the strongest predictor of EPPP success. They serve as guideposts throughout the process, that let you know when you are on track and when additional action or change is necessary. Keep in mind, a target score is only an accurate indicator when a test is taken without referring to any notes, readings, or other resources (i.e., “closed book”).
Generally, a score that is just a few points below target is not cause for concern— make sure to master all your missed items and try to determine what minor adjustments may be needed.
First time scores significantly below target suggest challenges with test-taking. Contributing factors may include not having mastered the core test-taking steps, not consistently thinking critically through each question, or both.
Second time scores significantly below target suggest that steps were likely skipped when the test was taken for the first time. Ask yourself, “Did it take me six to eight hours to complete the test when I took it in Study Mode?” “Did I reflect on my test-taking approach on each question?” “Did I identify what specifically contributed to getting each question correct or incorrect?” “Did I get to a place where I could articulate why the correct response was right and each incorrect response was wrong for all questions?” “Did I take the time to master the content covered in each question?”
Third time scores significantly below target are almost always linked to missing the target on second time scores and not correcting the underlying issues.
We are here to support you. If you do not have an email feedback consultant yet, send your test scores to info@psychprep.com with the subject line “requesting feedback”. Your expert consultant will help create an individualized plan based on your current progress.
Yes. If you have one of our EPPP packages (Basic Package, Basic Package Plus, or Premium Package) and your subscription is active, we encourage you to sign up for our free email feedback. Preparing properly for the EPPP may require a more nuanced approach that considers individual factors (e.g., whether someone has tested previously, has only 10 weeks to study, has had a break in studying, has learning differences, etc.). Our expert email feedback consultants provide ongoing guidance, including tailoring the program as needed based on your unique situation and individual progress. We have found that students who work with a consultant not only go through the program with more confidence, but also achieve higher scores on PsychPrep’s practice tests, as well as on the EPPP.
To be assigned to one of our expert email feedback consultants, who will work with you throughout your study process, send over your score for Test A in Study Mode in the following format:
Test A, Study Mode, score/225, date completed. Your score and the date completed can be found under the “Grade Book” tab, at the top left of your homepage.
Even if you have completed more than just Test A in Study Mode, it is not too late to set up expert feedback. Please email us all your scores on the tests you have completed thus far in the format shown above.
First-time target scores are the best indicator of EPPP readiness. Scoring 135/225 - 140/225 on Test C and 145/225 - 150/225 on Test D and Test E are strong predictors of success. Keep in mind, a target score is only an accurate indicator when a test is taken without referring to any notes, readings, or other resources (e.g., without looking up words or concepts).
When first-time score benchmarks have been met and all missed items have been mastered, you can test confidently. If you have any concerns about your readiness to test please email us at info@psychprep.com or call 800-779-2480
To set up a consultation please email our office at info@psychprep.com to get more information on rates and availability. Since the EPPP tests your ability to think critically about core concepts, the focus of the consultation will be on improving test-taking skills that you can continue to use throughout your studies (e.g., how to decipher the questions, what to do when two answers seem correct, etc.).
We are sorry to hear you did not pass the EPPP. If you have already been working with an email feedback consultant, please reach out to them for next steps. If you have not been working with a consultant and you plan to continue studying with PsychPrep, we highly recommend you utilize our email feedback program to receive guidance in preparing as effectively as possible.
Additionally, you might find our EPPP Strategies Seminar helpful. If your subscription is active, a pre-recorded version is immediately available to you in the ‘EPPP -- Get Started Here!’ section of your learning portal at lms.psychprep.com. If you wish to attend the seminar live, register for the ‘EPPP Strategies Seminar.’ This seminar covers our effective test-taking strategy, the importance of critical thinking, and the most efficient way to prepare.
