What happens if I fail the exam?
There is a 30-day waiting period between the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, attempt. On the 3rd attempt there is a $100 retesting fee. If the 3rd attempt is unsuccessful you may reapply after a 180-day waiting period. You have 365 days to successfully complete the exam, including all (3) retakes.
