Section does not provide for categorization of test scores. While this statute delineates all of the areas that are to be tested and provides that each candidate must score 75 on the entire examination in order to pass, it does not provide for the categorization of test scores so that candidates who each had an average score of 75 on the entire exam passed even though they scored below 75 on one of the three sections of the exam.
