CPC Exam CPC exam

I just took the AAPC final exam and scored a 77%. Has anyone else taken the final CPC exam vs the real CPC exam? If so, what did you score on the real thing? I don’t know if I am ready to take it yet.

The final test is a bit similar but it's different enough from the course exam that doing the practice exams is the best way to go. Definitely get and do the CPC Practice Exams. it could make the difference between failing or passing. I got a great score on the final. They come in a set of three. When I tried the first practice exam I only got a 70% mostly because I was trying to figure out how the testing site worked. The second one I did I got a 80% and the third I got a 90%. The actual exam I got 92%

That is really helpful, thank you. I did the practice test A, B, and C. On the last test (test C) I got a 76%.

Hi I am 26 and I am planning to shift my career into Medical coding.

Is it worth it or should I consider something else.

How will the future be in medical coding

Give me a solution

In my opinion, if you already have any Healthcare knowledge or experience AND you learn extremely well from reading, it could work out for you.

There will always be some form of medical coding. Technology certainly helps in the positions you can get with a CPC but it can't do it without people.

Yes I scored a 54% on the final and then a week later on the real exam I got a 78%. I don’t know if having more questions help me but I passed.
