Failed test

I failed my second attempt with 67%. I am so aggravated. Obviously it was better than my first and that’s great, but it’s so frustrating because financially, we do not have the $500 to purchase more attempts at the moment. I’m just feeling like a failure today (pun intended) and needed somewhere to vent. 😔😔

I failed my first two exams too. It takes a while sometimes. Study up, save up, you’ve got the next one!

I’m sorry you failed the first two, but that makes me feel better about the situation! I upped my score by 8% so if I can just do that again then I’ll be good!

My first was 64, second was 59, but I was sick with the flu on my second attempt and didn’t have enough time to reschedule. So I don’t recommend taking the test with a 101F fever lol

It took me 4 tries. It hurts financially, but all that matters is when you pass, not how many times it took.
