Drug Analysis Examination

PLEASE NOTE:  The Drug Analysis examination is a legacy examination and is distinctly different from the Seized Drug Analysis examination that is currently being field tested.  If you are taking the Seized Drug Analysis examination, please visit that specific web page for examination information and the study guide.
The Drug Analysis Examination is designed for an examiner who has worked in the field of forensic analysis of seized drugs for at least two years and who is authorized to perform casework in the forensic analysis of seized drugs. 

The examination consists of 200 questions, plus 20 pilot questions.  A portion of these examination questions are general in nature while a portion are specific to seized drug analysis.
​

The examination lasts up to 3 hours.
Refer to the Certification Eligibility Requirements for the minimum qualifications for taking the Drug Analysis Examination.  ​

The job description, examination breakdown, sample questions, and a bibliography for this examination can be found in the Study Guide.
