The RAC-GS exam is the official RAPS exam behind RAPS Regulatory Affairs Certification (RAC) Global Scope — passing it earns you the Regulatory Affairs Certification (RAC) Global Scope certification, a credential positioned at the Professional level. It is built for candidates who want to validate the skills measured by RAPS Regulatory Affairs Certification (RAC) Global Scope. Depending on your track, the exam is also linked to the RAC-Drugs and RAC-Devices certifications, so one pass can move you toward more than one RAPS credential.

The RAC-GS exam presents 150-180 questions to be completed within 210 minutes. That pace leaves little room for second-guessing: read each question carefully on the first pass, flag the ones you want to revisit, and keep moving instead of stalling on a single item. Before exam day, run at least one full timed session in the TestSimulate desktop or online test engine with a comparable question load — a steady rhythm under the clock is a trainable skill, and it is often what separates a pass from a near miss.

To pass the RAC-GS exam you need 70%, and the official registration fee is $605 (RAPS Member), $760 (Non-Member) - 2026 rates. Keep in mind that a failed attempt means paying that fee again in full — retakes are not discounted. Given the cost, self-test before you book: if you can score comfortably above the passing mark on two or three consecutive timed TestSimulate practice tests, your budget is far better spent on the exam itself than on a retake.

Bachelor's degree + 3 years regulatory experience; Master's + 2 years; Doctorate + 1 year; RAPS membership recommended Because RAPS revises its certification programs from time to time, treat this as a starting point rather than the final word.
