After more than 10 years away from pharmacy studies, she prepared while working long hours, built her confidence through structured classes, and successfully cleared the July OPRA examination.<\/div>\r\n\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Can_a_Nigerian_Pharmacist_Learn_from_Aderinsolas_OPRA_Exam_Result\"><\/span>What Can a Nigerian Pharmacist Learn from Aderinsola's OPRA Exam Result?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p>Aderinsola's OPRA exam result carries an important message for pharmacists who have been postponing their Australian registration plans.<\/p>\r\n<p>She had been away from the pharmacy curriculum for more than 10 years. At the same time, she was working to support herself and had limited time available for preparation.<\/p>\r\n<p>Yet she did not allow those circumstances to decide the outcome.<\/p>\r\n<p>When she first started preparing, she lacked confidence. She questioned whether she could return to studying pharmacy after such a long gap. Her confidence gradually changed as she progressed through her classes.<\/p>\r\n<p>By the time she entered the examination, she felt around 80% confident.<\/p>\r\n<p>Her story is particularly relevant to Nigerian pharmacists who may have completed their pharmacy education several years ago and are now considering the Australian registration pathway.<\/p>\r\n<p>A long gap, work commitments, or fear of the exam can make the first step difficult. Aderinsola's experience shows why starting the preparation process can be more important than waiting until you feel completely ready.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"ee-video\">\r\n  <div class=\"ee-video-wrap\">\r\n    <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VxtV_iBvVdY\" title=\"Aderinsola OPRA Success Interview - Elite Expertise\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen loading=\"lazy\"><\/iframe>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n  <p class=\"ee-video-cap\">Watch Aderinsola's full OPRA success interview<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Did_Aderinsola_Prepare_for_the_OPRA_Exam_After_a_Long_Study_Gap\"><\/span>How Did Aderinsola Prepare for the OPRA Exam After a Long Study Gap?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p>Aderinsola did not begin her OPRA preparation with complete confidence.<\/p>\r\n<p>She openly admitted that she had not properly studied the pharmacy curriculum for more than 10 years. That meant she had to rebuild her knowledge and become comfortable with pharmacy concepts again.<\/p>\r\n<p>Her preparation became more focused during the second and third months.<\/p>\r\n<p>The classes gave her a structured way to revisit important concepts instead of trying to study everything independently. She followed the lectures, revised questions, and returned to recorded material whenever she needed to strengthen a topic.<\/p>\r\n<p>One important part of her journey was the confidence she developed through regular classes.<\/p>\r\n<p>She said the tutors continued to give their time, energy, and attention to the students. Seeing that commitment encouraged her to become more committed herself.<\/p>\r\n<p>Her experience offers a practical lesson: you do not need to feel completely prepared before you start. Your confidence can grow as your preparation progresses.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Did_She_Prepare_for_the_OPRA_Exam_While_Working_Long_Hours\"><\/span>How Did She Prepare for the OPRA Exam While Working Long Hours?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p>Time was Aderinsola's biggest challenge.<\/p>\r\n<p>She was working long hours while preparing for the examination. During the week before the exam, around 12 hours of her day could be occupied by work.<\/p>\r\n<p>Instead of waiting for a perfect study schedule, she used whatever time was available.<\/p>\r\n<p>Even while working, she kept thinking about the questions and concepts she had studied. When she could not remember something, she returned to the recorded lectures or her study material as soon as she had the opportunity.<\/p>\r\n<p>Her approach was based on one simple principle: use the time you have properly.<\/p>\r\n<p>She also avoided trying to learn everything at the last moment. Instead, she prioritized topics she understood well and worked on strengthening those areas.<\/p>\r\n<p>This became particularly useful during the exam. She answered the questions she was confident about first and then returned to the questions that required more thought.<\/p>\r\n<p>For students working full time, her journey is a reminder that preparation does not always require an ideal routine. What matters is using your available hours consistently and purposefully.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Helped_Aderinsola_Build_Confidence_Before_the_OPRA_Exam\"><\/span>What Helped Aderinsola Build Confidence Before the OPRA Exam?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p>One of the strongest parts of Aderinsola's story is how her mindset changed during preparation.<\/p>\r\n<p>At the beginning, she was unsure whether she could pass. By the final stage, she felt around 80% confident.<\/p>\r\n<p>She credits much of this confidence to the structured preparation and support she received from Arief Sir and Harika Ma'am.<\/p>\r\n<p>She explained that the tutors made the examination feel achievable. Their confidence helped her develop confidence in herself.<\/p>\r\n<p>She also appreciated the way the classes prepared her for the concepts she encountered in the examination.<\/p>\r\n<p>When she saw familiar concepts during the exam, she could remember how they had been explained during the lectures.<\/p>\r\n<p>This is an important lesson for future candidates. Confidence does not necessarily come from knowing everything. It can come from repeatedly studying important concepts, practicing questions, and learning how to approach unfamiliar questions.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"ee-cta\"><a href=\"https:\/\/eliteexpertise.com\/opra-exam-preparation-course\/\">Join the Next OPRA Batch \u2192<\/a><\/div>\r\n\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Did_Aderinsola_Approach_the_OPRA_Exam_on_the_Day\"><\/span>How Did Aderinsola Approach the OPRA Exam on the Day?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p>Aderinsola entered the exam with approximately 80% confidence.<\/p>\r\n<p>The first few questions gave her an additional confidence boost because some of them felt familiar from her preparation.<\/p>\r\n<p>She said she could remember the way Arief Sir and Harika Ma'am had explained certain concepts during the classes.<\/p>\r\n<p>Rather than allowing difficult questions to affect her confidence, she continued working through the examination and returned to questions she was less certain about.<\/p>\r\n<p>After leaving the exam center, she estimated that she was around 50% sure that she had passed.<\/p>\r\n<p>The final result proved that her preparation had been effective.<\/p>\r\n<p>Her experience shows why candidates should avoid judging their performance immediately after an examination. Feeling uncertain about some questions does not automatically mean you have failed.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Does_Aderinsolas_OPRA_Exam_Result_Mean_for_Nigerian_Pharmacists\"><\/span>What Does Aderinsola's OPRA Exam Result Mean for Nigerian Pharmacists?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p>Aderinsola's success can be particularly encouraging for Nigerian pharmacists considering Australia as their professional destination.<\/p>\r\n<p>Her message is straightforward: start now.<\/p>\r\n<p>If you are a pharmacist who has been working outside your profession, has been away from pharmacy studies for years or is worried about finding enough time to prepare, her experience can give you a reason to reconsider those doubts.<\/p>\r\n<p>She also shared a powerful message from her African background:<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"ee-quote\">\"Follow the person who knows the road.\"<\/div>\r\n<p>For OPRA candidates, this means seeking reliable guidance, understanding what you need to study and following a structured preparation plan.<\/p>\r\n<p>However, passing OPRA is one stage of the Australian pharmacist registration journey. International pharmacists must also meet the applicable Australian registration and English language requirements and complete the subsequent registration and internship stages.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Can_Nigerian_Pharmacists_Prepare_for_the_OPRA_Exam_in_2026\"><\/span>How Can Nigerian Pharmacists Prepare for the OPRA Exam in 2026?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p>Aderinsola's journey suggests several practical steps for candidates preparing for the OPRA exam.<\/p>\r\n<p>First, start early. Do not wait until you feel completely confident.<\/p>\r\n<p>Second, follow your classes consistently. Build your understanding of concepts before moving heavily into revision.<\/p>\r\n<p>Third, use recorded lectures strategically. If you forget a topic, return to the relevant session instead of spending unnecessary time searching through unrelated resources.<\/p>\r\n<p>Fourth, practise questions regularly. Question practice can help you identify areas where your understanding needs improvement.<\/p>\r\n<p>Finally, make your study time count. If you work full time, create realistic study blocks around your schedule. Even a few focused hours can be useful when you use them consistently.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"OPRA_Preparation_with_Elite_Expertise\"><\/span>OPRA Preparation with Elite Expertise<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p>Elite Expertise's <a href=\"https:\/\/eliteexpertise.com\/opra-exam-preparation-course\/\">OPRA exam<\/a> preparation course is designed for international pharmacists preparing for the Australian pathway.

She still chose to begin.<\/p>\r\n<p>Her biggest message to future candidates is simple: start now.<\/p>\r\n<p>You may not have unlimited time. You may not feel completely confident.
