Oral-practical examination

All oral-practical examinations will be conducted by the board annually in the months of May through July unless otherwise arranged by the board. 1. Every applicant who has demonstrated passage of the written portion of the examination will be eligible to take the oral-practical examination. 2. The board will notify each applicant found eligible to take the oral-practical examination of the time and place scheduled for that applicant's oral-practical examination not less than thirty days in advance. 3. The subjects covered on the practical portion of the examination are diagnosis, surgery, biomechanics, emergencies, patient care, ethics, and theory in practice. 4. Failure of an applicant to appear for examination as scheduled will void the application, and will require the applicant to reapply for licensure, unless prior scheduling arrangements have been made with the board. 5. An applicant failing the oral-practical examination may be reexamined at the next regularly scheduled examination period for an additional reapplication fee, if the applicant completes an application within one year.
