Susie, so you'll have a take home exam of all the three different areas? Or are you exempt from one or more parts of the FCCA?

Hoping this would apply to me too....:D Good work getting the exams done so fast, you are a real smart cookie. Still struggling on NC6...any pointers?

I was told that they just got the paper and pencil version ready to go yesterday, it's not even available to sign up for online.

It's only 2 different areas that I'm aware of. I know it used to be 3 but I'm not sure what it entails just know it's open book so it can't be too difficult. I honestly don't even remember what NC 6 is about LOL, I took new curriculum tests so they're named and organized a little differently.

Any updates on this? How hard was the exam? Like you said, can't be too hard if it's open book and you have 10 days. ;)

I just started EC in September and am knocking out exams left and right. 3 more to go as of today, not including FCCA and CPNE.

My friend took the test and said it was Case studies. You have to write out what you would do in certain situations. I don't think there is multiple choice questions. I plan on paying for it on Thursday right before I go to Utica so it will be in the mailbox when I get back.

Didn't you pay for it last Tuesday? They have not mailed it out yet?
