Hi,
I've learned a few things when I retook my CPC exam.
It helps to divide your exam in to sections when taking it.
I did . . .
1. Medical terminology first (my strongest subject)
2. HCPCS second
3. ICD-9 CM third
4. CPT last & went in order (weakest subject)
I circled my answers in my test booklet, which helped me to stay more oraganized, especially when I marked a wrong answer. I was able to change it.
Someone else I heard had circled their answers in their test booklet first & then filled in their bubble sheet. This is a good way, if you're confident that you can finish in time.
I wish you the best of sucess when taking your CPC or any coding exam.
