FLEX examination standards.

Reciprocity applicants who were licensed in another state by passing the FLEX examination will be eligible for a waiver of examination if the applicant received a FLEX weighted average score of at least 75. The score may be obtained in a single setting of the three-day examination or by averaging the individual day scores from different examinations. The individual day scores will be averaged according to the following formula:
Day 1 equals 1/6.
Day 2 equals 2/6.
Day 3 equals 3/6.
The overall average score shall be truncated to the nearest whole number (i.e., an average of 74.9 equals 74). Single subject averaging is not permitted. The commission will accept the FLEX weighted average of 75 reported from the Federation of State Medical Boards. All FLEX scores must be submitted directly from the Federation of State Medical Boards. FLEX scores reported by other states will not be accepted.
