National Chiropractic Exam

The National Chiropractic Exam (NCE) is a standardized test that aspiring chiropractors must pass to become licensed practitioners in the United States. It evaluates their knowledge and skills in areas such as anatomy, physiology, diagnosis, and chiropractic techniques. The exam ensures that candidates meet professional standards for patient safety and effective care. Typically divided into multiple sections, the NCE helps licensing boards assess whether a candidate is prepared to practice independently as a licensed chiropractor. Passing the NCE, along with completing evidence-based education and clinical training, is essential for entering professional practice.
