Hey everybody.  I keep getting ads via e-mail regarding training for coding skills.  I just thought I'd pass this bit onto you, am quoting from the ad: "I know so many coders that study their brains out for the CPC® exam, and still fail – even if they know the content. It’s not surprising really considering the exam is 5 ½ hours long and only has about a 50% pass rate!"

Did you know that typically the Andrews students pass on the first attempt at that exam?   Yep, still waving flags for Andrews training.

When in the program is it a good idea to begin thinking about taking the CPC exam? I'm about finished with Module I, should I plan to attempt it after Module II or III?

Hi Nathan.  Andrews recommends that you take your CPC exam after you have completed Module III.  They also add two extra bonus weeks for prep to your deadline for Module IV.  I take my CPC on 09/10 and just completed Module III last week.
