Okay so I'm kind of embarrassed to even post this but I've failed the NCIC certification twice now and I'm starting to wonder if I'm just approaching it completely wrong. First attempt I went in cold thinking my field experience would carry me — yeah, that was a mistake. Second time I read through the manual cover to cover and still came up 12 points short. I don't know what I'm missing.
I've been looking around for a decent NCIC practice test that actually mirrors the real thing because I think that's where I'm falling apart — I can read the material all day but applying it under timed conditions is a different story. I also grabbed a study guide off a random site but half the content felt outdated. Anyone know what edition they're testing on right now?
My third attempt is scheduled for six weeks out. I'm willing to put in serious hours — I just need to know where to actually focus. Specifically struggling with the hit confirmation procedures and the validation requirements. Any exam tips from people who've been through this recently would be genuinely appreciated.
