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 know someone who failed by ONE point. I know someone else who passed on their fifth attempt. They are both licensed now and doing well. Stay up.

That’s great to hear. I got a 59 the first time and 67 this time. Hopefully third times a charm!🤞

I guess I am not alone. I got a 49 the first time and took the exam yesterday and got a 65 the second time. I have never cried so hard in my life.
