ASCO Publishes National Board of Examiners in Optometry Pass Rate Data
In collaboration with the National Board of Examiners in Optometry (NBEO®), the Association of Schools and Colleges of Optometry (ASCO) continues to post the pass rate data for every U.S. optometric institution on its website. These results include outcomes of the now-retired Part III CSE exam as well as the new Part III PEPS exam.
The data for 2024 is found at: https://optometriceducation.org/news/national-board-of-examiners-in-optometry-yearly-performance-report/. This is also where past year’s reports, beginning with the 2016-2017 academic year, may be found.
“NBEO is pleased to continue to work with ASCO as we provide this data,” says Dr. Jill Bryant, NBEO Executive Director. “These results are from calculations using the scores of optometry candidates who have both graduated during the 2023-2024 academic year and attempted all three parts of the exam at least once.”
“The pass rates from the schools and colleges of optometry can provide a comprehensive view of school performance as well as challenges,” says Dr. Fraser Horn, ASCO President. “We remain committed to offering each optometry student a vigorous curriculum as well as tailored support to best prepare them to enter this very challenging and rewarding career.”
