I am taking my certification test for the second time, and I dont think I am will pass it this time either. I only get three tries, and if I fail this time, I have to retake the entire test over and not just the parts that I failed. We have already spent over 500 dollars, and my husband tells me that my degree is worthless without my certification. I really want to do what I went to school for, but failing the certification is making me think I should just give up.

What you do think?

What can I do next?

Since your degree is for athletic training I'm not sure if this is a physical fitness test or a written one but regardless, this seems like something that you have been striving for and you should absolutely give it your all. Don't let anybody make you feel like you can't do it. You can do it and you will, just buckle down and study hard or train hard if that is what it takes but follow through and do it. This is something you need to do for you and nobody else so don't give it up that easily. Good luck!

I usually don't give 'hokey' advice...
but if you believe in it, maybe try hypnosis?
from a reputable, certified, licensed hypnotherapist...

My advice would be to check for a test prep center or an on-line test prep course. Sometimes the tests are worded a little different than those you took while in school. Most prep courses give you practice exams that score you and let you know your weaknesses so you can concentrate on those.

I have two state licenses and took prep courses for both. For one it was a $30.00 on line prep course. I passed both tests the first time. Some friends of mine that had scored higher during the actual course work failed the certification the first time. I gave them my prep info and they passed the second time.

Keep your head up, a positive atitude and believe in yourself. You can do it!
