Yes I passed the first time back in 2003, they did not give us our scores back then.

I also took the CPC exam on 4/21/12. I finished the exam within 15 minutes before time was up. Still waiting also on results. Wishing you luck.

The first time I took it I got a 69................second time I got 75!
I have no medical background so I think that kept me from not passing the first time, but it is such a good feeling when you get the score and have passed..........good luck!

Hello, I must say the exam was no joke. I have been in billing forover 10 years and I thought I was coding. I was familiar with using the codes however, there is a big difference when it comes down to understanding the specific quidelines according to the services provided. I took a 14 week course with 11 others and only 4 walked away with a passing grade. I was prepared for the retake if I had to. I did pass the first time around and i did not finish. I'm not sure how the test is graded , some questions require more thought than others. Some skipped around and then came back, me I just went one by one. I found the questions at the end to be easier than the rest. I am glad I passed the first time around and I wish all who are in the process of preparing for the exam the best of luck, to those who did not pass the first time don't give up. Now I have to decide where I want to go with my certification. GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE!!!!

I took it 2 days after I graduated with an Associates of Applied Science in Medical Billing and Coding and I failed. I took it again a month later and passed. The first time I got a 61 the second time I got a 71. I was discouraged after spending 18 months and lots of money but I finally passed, I just can't find a job. Good luck, you should know by Thursday at the latest. I thought it was a hard test both times.
