Anyone else sign-up to take the BCPS exam in the Fall?

I am starting to get nervous about this exam already. I have the 2017 ACCP materials and have been sitting in on the VA BCPS review series.

How is studying going for everyone/how are you mastering the material? Thoughts from those who have taken the exam previously?

Thanks for any tips!

They wiped your board clean at the break?! Thats horrible! I probably would have started crying.

Yeah. They told me to bring my white board out with me for the break, and that I could skip it if I wanted to, but I had to come out to be logged off and log back on again. I told him I wanted to skip the break, and he said that he was required to wipe my board. Ack! I had all my formulas and a few evidence tables and guideline charts written on it for easy reference. I assumed if I skipped it, they would just let me go back in. I also gave up even trying to write all that out again. I was a little frustrated at the whole thing by that point 🙂

Everyone at work keeps asking me! Im the only one to take BCCCP, and the only one to take any certification, actually. The only other person that's BC did it years ago and was hired with it so. There were supposed to be three of us taking it and waiting for results but as it turns out its just me. 🙄

This spring's test group had to suffer until the very last day, haha. Hopefully that won't be the case for us!

Ugh that would be awful!

Side note, I noticed that BPS removed the announcement that said scores will be released by first week of December. I also noticed that they put out a press release yesterday saying they promoted an employee. Apparently their priorities dont align with ours.

MAYBE they removed that announcement about December because the scores will be released sooner??
That’s the optimist in me.. 🙂
refresh, refresh

MyBPS website down this morning....

The website has been acting up since last night when I was checking. It went down a couple times yesterday evening. Hopefully they are updating some things (score results), but it likely just an increase in demand on their servers from all of us checking for scores frequently. We can hope though that they are uploading results. 🙂

I was actually hoping to have the results before Midyear for another thing to talk about during PPS interviews.

Hi All,
I signed up for the Fall exam but have not been able to study. From what I read, everyone is advising to study at least 4 months in advance. What are you thoughts on this? TIA

Hi
I took the exam and received my score just yesterday, I shocked for that unfair result as they failed me for 1 score only ! As I got 74 and it should be 75, I studied hard , attended the Boot Camp in Veges and reviewed most chapters of AGS syllables and did all the ASCP online courses.
Any other advice? As I will re take in the 2018 Spring
Thanks

Maybe this is a good sign? Or maybe everyone is just checking so often we locked up the system.....
