    When are you taking your CBIC exam?

    I took the CIC exam a couple of years ago and passed. Frankly, if you have been doing infection prevention work for more than a year, you should do fine on the exam. I paid $50 for the sample test though I felt it was too easy and not representative of the actual exam which was much harder.

    However, I don't recommend studying a lot for the exam. The difficult questions for me were ones that I would never have thought to study for and I would have missed them anyway.

    Good luck.

    I was supposed to take it in July but postponed it. Work and life got in the way. I bought the older version of the APIC text, that thing is so thick they had to make it into two books!!
