I recently received a lovely card from someone who took a certification prep workshkop offered by yours truly. She wrote to thank me for the course and to inform me that she had passed! Congrats! Something else she said I thought worthy of thought by all the rest of you out there, both certiied, and not yet certified. "My score was...average for a registered nurse on that board exam and I also am certified in matenral and child health nursing from ANA and scored avareage on that. I found this exam to be consistent with other board exams I have taken." This comment may be useful information for those of you who are pondering whether/when and how bad the IBLCE exam is. Hope it helps and that all those newly certified IB CLICKS out there are basking in the glow of having passed.
