I am going to have to call EC in the morning. I think I understand what I have to do on some sections, but on others I don't understand. I have one section completely done but the rest I will wait until I talk to them. Did all you guys get your FCCA today too? Are you as confused as me?

I got mine today, I'm so confused too! I did the first section have no idea if I did it right!!! Section two seems straight forward but I feel like there is more to it! I'm going to do section three tomorrow. I'm going to call excelsior tomorrow to see if I can get some clarification.

I FINALLY got mine at7pm!! I too am a bit confused, but i think the wording is the worst! It leaves so many questions unable to be answered or open. We are all on the same page with regards to being confused!! Not just you!

The FCCA was no big deal, do the best follow the instructions send it back by the deadline. Get a result of PASS. Focus on the CPNE.

I sent mine back in the morning, had two extra peices of paper to go along with it. I wrote alot. The lady on the phone said I was on the right track but she really couldn't answer my questions. So I sealed it and sent it on it's way... hopefully I will have a pass!

It's so subjective, I am not sure how they could fail you, my advisor said a 95% pass rate on there. Glad to have that one over with!!!
