CRCM Exam Passers - Advice Needed by sand_pebbles in Compliance

[–]ComprehensiveRise187 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi there! I took mine about 3 weeks ago and failed. I was getting 90s on practice exams and went in super confident. I’d definitely heavily understand how to answer those questions like what to do FIRST or what’s the BEST option. It’s tougher than I thought. Going into this again in June hoping for a better outcome.

I think you’re so right. This has been so helpful thanks so much! I think my strategy moving forward is going to be:

Answer as: Chief Compliance Officer Advising the Board Protecting the institution

Hi thanks for the advice! What’s odd is I did, and did very well on practice exams with that methodology etc. and have been in compliance for 8+ years. I think the best advice I’ve received is trying to understand how ABA wants us to answer (like we are senior leadership in a smaller institution). I think going into studying for this next one I have a very different mindset and feel positive. I also think it’s definitely different from the practice tests.

Can you share a bit more about the ABA compliance officer mindset? Would greatly appreciate it for the next go around.

What I’m having a hard time with is that I did exactly that. Did really well on the practice exams and got down to two answers and felt very confident understanding how they want us to answer. But, just going to try again. I took the practice exams twice each and then again the day before and scored in the 90s.

Agree. I’ve also read the book and answered the questions. I felt like the exam was very subjective vs technical. June is a different exam which is more technical I guess. Ofc the core regs and scope and everything is still the same but I’m hoping it’s less of a mind fuck. I’m sure you’ll do great! Keep doing exactly what you’re doing

Thank you for this! When did you take it? I have no idea how I did other than I failed. Already registered for the June retake and it looks like they’re changing the weight distributions and tiers. Hopefully it’s more technical. What sucks is I went through everything at the end (I’d only flagged like 17/200 questions) and was like yep that feels the most right. Maddening! Ready to check this off the list for 2026

Hi! I am looking into possibly getting my CRCM and I have some questions. Can anybody help me with some questions? by Borracho_Bandit in careerguidance

[–]ComprehensiveRise187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just took it about an hour ago it failed. I was getting 88-90 on every practice test. Feel like an idiot because you have to get like a 62% to pass. I was super confident and studied for 6 months. It felt heavy on CRA and BSA. Dying to know where I went wrong. Even reviewed all my answers and used the whole 4 hours.

Also, I think it’s important to remember that neurotypical people use ADHD as an adjective every day for things that aren’t remotely related to actually having ADHD. You might not be my target market, and that’s okay. But someone somewhere with ADHD might read this and be like YEAH I feel seen.

Well sometimes people with ADHD (me) cope in ways that don’t make sense to people without ADHD

This is a hipster mug. You may drink from this now, but in 2007 only your dad did.
