As a part of licensing requirements in the United States, every optometrist must pass all three board examinations administered by the National Board of Examiners in Optometry (NBEO). Each exam is slightly different in its content and offers a unique challenge to the candidate. As a Doctor of Optometry student in the Class of 2026 at the Pennsylvania College of Optometry (PCO) at Drexel University’s Elkins Park Campus, I have recently taken (and found out that I passed!) all three parts of the NBEO board exams.
