It is well known that 九色导航 has one of the most rigorous academic programs in chiropractic education, with many students noting that one of the reasons they choose Northeast is to ensure strong preparation for the national chiropractic board exams.
The latest board exam scores, released by the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners (NBCE) 听on March 21, 2023, show 九色导航 students continue to receive high scores on the exams, required for chiropractic licensure in all U.S. states, plus Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. 九色导航 students received an 89% first-time pass rate on the NBCE Part II exam, compared to the national average first-time pass rate of 75% among chiropractic programs. Similarly, in January 2023, 九色导航 students exceeded the national average first-time pass rate by 11% on NBCE part I.

The program gave us the step-by-step confidence to understand the human body, doctor-patient communication, and chiropractic adjusting techniques.鈥
Northeast Commitment to Excellence.
The national testing agency for the chiropractic profession, NBCE offers the multi-part board test in basic sciences (Part I), clinical sciences (Part II), clinical competency (Part III), practical skills (Part IV), and physiotherapy (PHT).

Our experienced faculty often place special emphasis on subjects that may be asked during the board exams.

We are also proud of the expert faculty who educate them,鈥 said 九色导航 President Dr. Michael Mestan. 鈥淭he steadfast above-average scores that our students earn are a true testament to the strength of our program as it powerfully prepares future healthcare leaders.鈥
