Learning performance among patients with multiple sclerosis is one of the growing areas of research interest. The present study used the MSQOL-54 measure to examine data obtained from college students studying pharmacy. The collected data were meant to increase pharmacy students; awareness of the learning difficulties experienced by MS patients. The data consisted of students from years 2 to 6 of college. The findings showed that study year had no significant relationship with the knowledge level, Х2= 12.69, p > .05. However, year of study had a significant relationship with awareness about learning difficulties, Х2 = 17.61, p < .05. In total, 52.83% of students in study year 2 were not aware of the learning difficulties MS patients face and 51.72% of third year students were aware of the learning difficulties. By the fourth year, the number increased to 85.71%. After year 4, the percentage of students who were aware of learning difficulties seemed to decrease (82% in year 5 and 68% in year 6). These findings show that students tend to forget what they have learnt. Further studies need to be carried out to examine strategies for enhancing the experience of MS students.
