FSMTB

Taking the Exam

The MBLEx is administered on a daily basis, year-round at test sites across the United States and US territories. Once you are approved to test, and receive an Authorization to Test (ATT) via email, you must use that information to register for the exam date and testing location of your choice. To find your nearest test site, please click on the Locate Test Center button.

Candidates have two hours to complete a 100-item, multiple-choice examination on a computer. Out of this timeframe, five minutes is allotted to a security and confidentiality agreement and five minutes is allotted to a brief survey. Not completing the MBLEx within the allotted time results in an automatic failure and there is no diagnostic report generated. Please ensure you are aware of FSMTB security policies. See the exam security video below.

Weather and Test Centers
The FSMTB is committed to providing you with a positive examination experience, even when Mother Nature has other ideas. If you are scheduled to take the MBLEx in an area that is experiencing inclement and dangerous weather or environmental conditions, you will be notified if the test center is closed and your appointment will be rescheduled.

In the event that the test center remains open, you will be expected to attend your appointment as scheduled. You may opt to reschedule your appointment for a $20 fee, provided that you reschedule more than three (3) days before the initial appointment. All other unscheduled absences will be recorded as a “no-show” and all fees forfeited.
