    92 on my ABO! If only I was rude enough to check my cell phone at dinner I could have bragged to the other students here at the OAA meeting that I passed :) Congrats to everyone else who passed!

    After reading that everyone else had received their scores I panicked and called the ABO. It turns out that they had incorrectly entered my email address into the system. I PASSED!!!!!! I don't know my score yet because they have not sent the "official" email yet...Congrats to everybody who passed the ABO (AND OR) NCLE...Next stop ABO-AC

    That's very insightful, and a great way to learn from the experience. Often, people think that passing the test is reaching the summit, while in reality, it is just approaching base camp. Keep learning, and pushing yourself, and you will begin to look at opticianry as being a profession and not just a job.

    Congratulations!

    I only passed with an 81 which was lower then i was hoping. BUT only have 3 1/2 years in a state where nothing is required and most of the people i work with could care less... so i guess thats saying something.

    Agreed! Not only does he care, but he works, with little fanfare, behind the scenes, helping others to meet their career goals.

    Kudos to you Fezz!
