Registration Information

There are two methods of application for taking the SPEX: board-sponsored or self-nominated.

Physicians who take the SPEX at the request and approval of a state licensing board are referred to as "board-sponsored" candidates. Board-sponsored applicants must have held a valid, unrestricted license in a or Canadian jurisdiction. In addition to the SPEX program requirements, board-sponsored applicants must meet eligibility requirements established by the individual licensing boards pursuant to their statutory and regulatory provisions. Individuals wishing to take the examination as a board-sponsored candidate should contact either the licensing authority from which they hold a license or the licensing authority from which they plan to seek a license to determine their eligibility according to the requirements of the jurisdiction. Scores for board-sponsored examinees are reported to both the examinee and the licensing board for which SPEX is taken.

Physicians who hold a current, unrestricted license to practice medicine in a or Canadian jurisdiction are eligible to apply for the SPEX as a "self-nominated" candidate, independent of any request or approval from a medical licensing board. Scores for self-nominated examinees are reported only to the examinee.

All physicians must submit a notarized copy of their medical license with their application. Physicians who are unable to submit a copy of their license must provide one of the following:

A signed, written explanation by the physician of why a copy of the license cannot be provided (e.g., was surrendered to the licensing authority).
A signed, written explanation by a licensing authority verifying that the physician does have a license. The letter must be on the state medical board's letterhead and must state when the license was issued and whether it is currently in good standing.
