I am trying to get my certification in the state of Colorado. My problem is that I am very frustrated with the certification boards manual skills test. We are required to get a score of 5 out of 5 on the skills test to be able to take the written exam. This seems a ittle extreem to me. Especially when they are in such dire need for CNA's. Is this the standard in other states as well? I have taken 1 skills exam and failed. They only told me the skills that I did not pass, not exactly what I did wrong. This is frustrating for me because I thought I did well. How can I improve if I don't know what I did wrong? I need to take my re-test by I am scared of failing again since I thought I did good the first time and failed. Can I get some advice?
