REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from Art. 43, §
124(a)(1). Its revision is patterned after the
standard language used throughout this article
for provisions that allow or require waiver of
examination requirements on a reciprocal basis.

In subsection (a)(2)(iii) of this section, the
reference to the "National Board for Osteopathic
Physicians and Surgeons" is substituted for the
obsolete reference to the "National Board of
Osteopathic Examiners".

Subsection (b)(1) of this section is standard
language added for clarity.
