I plan on testing in Albany/Syracuse/Schenectaty area. I plan on starting my FCCA on Sunday...Sat got shot already. lol.

I sent Robs videos back, they wouldn't work. He hasn't sent me replacements as of yet. Thinking of Sherri's online, and maybe one hands on before the big day. Is everyone as terrified as me???

Isn't upstate NY part of the NPAC?? Loops, you HAVE to come here. Heard nothing but horror stories from the midwest! Why risk it?

I know what you mean, the MPAC really does seem to have a black cloud looming over it but put it out of my mind and figured I would just have to be on top of every single element of the clinical performance. The one thing the longer wait gives me is more time to try and get a workshop in, I will definately keep you all posted. I am still working on this flipping FCCA. After 2 phone calls for help I am still stumped with vagueness :confused: but oh well!

I will let you know what I come up with Sunday, when I attempt my FCCA.

I want to test around Oct/Nov...for I think I need the time. I will find some workshop by than. I will keep you posted.

If I pick Queens, I wont even need a Hotel.....I am thinking of that one.

I would attempt your FCCA when they have advisors at Excelsior, like on Monday. The did offer me a wee bit of insight, which I definately needed. FCCA is one of these exams that we are not allowed to chat about among each other, unfortunately. :rolleyes:

As soon as I finish this FCCA, I am going to see how much I can absorb from the study guide in a week and make my study plan from there. I would sure love to be done with this before next winter, but that may not be in the cards for me. I may decide to do my workshop out East if I have a lot of time.

thanks, but I didn't want to discuss the FCCA. That looks pretty straight foward. I have time to do it a couple times before it needs to be sent back by the 26th. I am sure a phone call or two will be made to Excelsior

I wanted to talk about the cpne, get together to study etc., but that's ok.

Good luck with your studies, and maybe I'll catch you at a workshop or something.

Ah, no worries! I just threw that out there because I have been whining all week about myself finding the FCCA vague, and I hate vague :rolleyes:

Stop worrying about the FCCA guys, the reason why there are no directions is because it really is as easy as it looks :-)

k9kabs · Jul 15, 2011

That is what I have heard. Thanks Beachie
