All NAVLE candidates will be able to access their results at the navle Score Portal. This is the website to access if you are planning to take the NAVLE.
The NAVLE test is required to obtain licensure for veterinary medicine practice in North America. It includes 360 multiple-choice clinically relevant questions. It is administered throughout North America and certain overseas sites at computer testing centers operated by Prometric. It is available twice per year, in November/December or April.
High NAVLE pass rates
The AVMA council on education expects that at minimum 80% of graduating senior students taking the NAVLE will have passed by the time they graduate. Since 2001, LSU veterinarian students have achieved a pass rate that is consistently higher than this benchmark.
It's an exhausting test
NAVILE is composed of six sections, each with 60 questions. The total number of questions is 360. It is a multiple choice exam and is done on the computer.
ICVA offers practice assessment and a NAVLE Tutorial to help you prepare. Zuku Review and VetPrep offer exam preparation services that include practice assessments and NAVLE questions.
The NAVLE scores you receive after the test has been completed won't be immediately available. It's important that you keep this in mind while you are preparing for the exam. Do not panic about your NAVLE scores. Wait patiently, then use your NAVLE score to identify the topics that need more attention.
The NAVLE can be retaken as many times you wish, but your fourth and fifth attempts must take place within five years of the first attempt. You should allow yourself ample time to study if you decide to take the exam again.
To retake the NAVLE test, you will need to register with ICVA and follow their reexamination instructions. This includes registering for a different testing window.
Your NAVLE results are released via a web portal about one month after the end of the testing window. This is especially true for the autumn testing window, which produces more accurate results.
The NAVLE is a criterion-referenced test (also known as content-based tests), so your score is determined by an expert veterinarian panel who evaluates the difficulty of each question and decides whether it meets a particular standard. This standard is then applied to all forms of the NAVLE, using a process called equating, to ensure that your score remains constant despite variations in item difficulty between different tests.
NAVLE scores can be converted to a scale of 200-800 with a minimum score of 425. While some licensing boards might ask for a different scale, they will convert your score to that scale. However, the actual passing standard remains the same across all jurisdictions.
If you're interested to retake NAVLE, you may request approval through DELPROS. Log in to the e-License Dashboard. Click on "Service Request." After approval, you will receive an email notification.
FAQ
What should you consider when getting a pet?
Consider what lifestyle you want for your family and yourself. Do you have any children? If yes, how many? How old are they now? Are there any special dietary preferences?
Do you have allergies? Is there any additional information you need about your pet?
Now, you can think about whether you are looking to find an active companion, quiet lap dog or house-trained cat. Or perhaps a fish tank filled with tropical fish.
Adopting a puppy is a great idea. Make sure to visit a rescue or shelter group so you can get to know the animals and feel at ease with them.
You should also verify that the animal has been vaccinated to prevent rabies, and other diseases.
Next, check with the owner to see if he/she will take care your animal while you're on vacation. You won't need to worry about your pet being left at home.
Remember that pets are part your family. If you don't like them, you shouldn’t adopt them.
What age is it safe to have a pet as a child?

Many children who have pets get bitten. This is especially true with small dogs.
A few breeds of dogs, like pit bulls can be quite aggressive towards other animals.
Even though a dog might seem friendly, it doesn't mean it won't attack another animal.
So, if you choose to get a dog, ensure it is well trained. You should also supervise your child when she is playing with the dog.
What is pet assurance?
Pet Insurance provides financial protection for pets when they are sick or injured. It also covers routine care such as vaccinations or spaying/neutering.

-
Catastrophic – This insurance pays for the medical costs of your cat in case of serious injury.
-
Non-catastrophic-This type covers routine veterinarian costs, such as vaccines, microchips, spays/neuters, and other veterinary services.
Many companies offer both catastrophic as well as non-catastrophic coverage. Others offer just one or the other.
These costs are covered by a monthly payment. The amount depends on how much you spend on your pet's care.
The price of your insurance depends on which company is chosen. Make sure to shop around before you buy.
If you purchase multiple policies, some companies offer discounts.
You can transfer an existing pet plan from one company to another if you have it.
If you decide to not purchase any pet insurance you will be responsible for all costs.
However, there are still ways to save money. Ask your veterinarian about discounts.
If your pet sees you often, he may discount you.
Or, you can find a local animal shelter where you can adopt a pet instead of paying for one.
You must always read the fine print, regardless of what type of insurance policy you purchase.
It will inform you of the amount of your coverage. If you don’t understand something, contact an insurer immediately.

Should I spay/neuter/neuter my dog or not?
Yes! Spaying and neutering your dog is very important.
Not only does it reduce the number of unwanted puppies in the world, but it also reduces the risk of certain diseases.
