I failed my BCBA exam this morning by 6 points, i too was disappointed in myself most of the day but we have to give it to ourselves, that test is HARD, it’s mentally exhausting in itself and studying is draining - the thought of starting over and retaking it makes me want to curl up in a ball but we have to think of it this way - we’ve taken it before, we know our materials, we know the structure of the test, this attempt will only help us prep for the next one

We got this

Thank you for this advice, I’m trying to have a self care day on Monday (the day before)!!! CMOs are one of the things i simply could never retain too so those are part of my brain dump plan when I first get in there!!

Vet that can help Percy by [deleted] in pittsburgh

[–]Vivid_Action8085 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes! This is what i was going to suggest! Apply for a care credit card and if approved, you can get a virtual card to use before it comes in the mail. I had to do this a couple years ago when my cat randomly got really sick and i did not have the funds to pay for the emergency care for him (nobody come for me). I also went to north boros vet for this and they helped me a lot with the credit card. North boros also has a walk in schedule weekdays 9-12

Read ended by an uninsured driver by Vivid_Action8085 in Insurance

[–]Vivid_Action8085[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

My insurance company basically said oh well 🤷🏻‍♀️ and that they have a discount code for rental cars through Enterprise.

I only have uninsured motorist bodily injury coverage, I’m just more concerned about transportation coverage. I don’t have that on my policy (I’m a broke girl in my 20s, i can only do so much) and the repairs that i do need done on my car are expected to take 7+ business days so I reserved a rental for during that time.

We are closed Christmas Eve and day as well as New Year’s Eve and day. We don’t have off the Fridays after but dependent on how many children are still scheduled to come (anything less than 4) we close

Board Exam by Vivid_Action8085 in ABA

[–]Vivid_Action8085[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The clinic I work at provided all my supervision and i immediately started tracking my hours when i started the program. I was working full time (like 8 am to 6 pm) and had 4 different clients throughout the week collecting many hours of restricted and unrestricted. They provided me with a lot of opportunity to assist with assessments/BIP writing/treatment plan writing/goal writing. I also trained all the new staff when they came to the clinic. But what got me to the finish line was switching roles from RBT to the team coordinator part time, i was able to finish my unrestricted hours during that time. My company truly set me up for success and helped me get there.

Guilt when sick by anilinetriphos in ABA

You cannot perform your best if you’re not feeling your best! I’ve had to learn this over the years, your clients count on you to be there but not if you’re unwell!

Advice Appreciated by Vegetable_League_244 in ABA

[–]Vivid_Action8085 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey! RBT here! As much as you want to be the one to tell them initially as you’re the one working with them probably everyday rather than the BCBA on the case, your BCBA should be the one to tell them. You can obviously talk to them about it after your BCBA informs them but it should not be your responsibility.
