The board shall conduct a written examination in anatomy, bacteriology, physiology, chemistry, pathology, histology, gynecology, symptomatology, hygiene and public health, physical diagnosis, diagnostic X-ray, principles and practice of chiropractic, and such other subjects as the board determines by rule. The board may waive examination in some or all of these subjects or their equivalents if the applicant has passed the examinations given by the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners. The board shall require all applicants to attain a general average of not less than seventy-five percent and a grade of at least seventy percent in each subject and to perform satisfactory clinical demonstrations to be entitled to a license to practice chiropractic. However, an applicant who has not graduated at the time of the examination is not entitled to a license until the applicant graduates and provides the board with the certifications from an attended school as required in § 36-5-9. The board may permit an applicant who failed only one subject to be reexamined only in such subject without an additional fee. The board may, by rule, limit the number and frequency of reexaminations.
