Failed fcca assessment?!!

Published

This was by far the easiest exam I have taken through Excelsior, I felt so sure of the answers I selected... but SLAP MY FACE... I got 41/60! Needed 42 to pass! I think I know where I went wrong though since each of the next ones contained the answers I *thought* I put previously... At about question 55 I happened to look back to make sure that I clicked the answer I wanted as, I was stuck between two, and my answer moved all the way down to the last one (which wasn't what I selected)... I am using a laptop and was using the arrows to scroll down the page to the next button and low and behold, it moved my answer cursor too.... STUPID, STUPID, STUPID me... I don't know how many I actually did that to, because I seriously breezed through this test in 50 minutes because I was so sure of the answers... I am so mad at myself, and I still have to do multidisciplinary teams test since I enrolled in both at the same time... now back another 8 stinking weeks! GRRRRRRR.... End vent!

I hate to hear that! I'd be beating myself up too. You taking it again at the end of this month?

Funny thing is, we both failed the last test and had to redo... now we are in FCCA together... but I trust you won't make the same stupid mistake I did, lol. Maybe we can prep for the CPNE together?

I surely hope not! Definitely taking DONT DO notes lol! Look on bright side..at least you don't have to wait 30+ days to re-register to take it again

I know your upset, but the good news is this process is almost over and you are not far away, even if you do have to take the exam over. You will get it this time FOR SURE!!!!:) I will be right behind you.... shooting for September FCCA.
