So a while ago I posted about my application being accepted to sit for my AVECCTN exam. It is the emergency and critical care technician specialty group. It is a 3 to 5 year process to be eligible for application, then a year long application process of skills, case logs and case studies. That was accepted this spring and today, I sat for the proctored exam at home. The conference was cancelled due to COVID so a special software was utilized to take the exam. It was a 3 hour process for me, but I finished.

I feel ok, I definitely knew some answers but I definitely didn't know others and had to due some eliminations and guessing. I am confident in my math problems but got overhwhelmed with some electrolyte and disease processes. They say everyone walks away feeling like they failed. So now I wait a month or two to hear my results. I can take the exam up to 3 times before I would have to reapply again. So now just waiting....and worrying.... at least I can take a break from reading.
