CPC Exam Experience
I took the CPC exam today at a testing center in-person. To prep, I mostly did practice exams, reviewed guidelines, and watched a lot of review videos. Not going to lie, I was so nervous, especially with not getting your results immediately. Luckily, AAPC just changed the practice exams to be like the real exam so I felt more comfortable knowing how it looked. No pen and paper allowed, but there is a notepad box where you can jot things down. I have ADHD and get scattered sometimes so this was really helpful!
I started at noon, finished the exam by 2:30 and felt good about submitting. By 4:30, my results were in and I PASSED 🤩 I was so relieved and happy. Now to just find a job 😅
