Two great things about this class. First, it is one of the few schools offering online so you can do this when it works into your busy schedule. Second, you can start the exam, pause and pick back up where you left off. How cool is that? I have two granddaughters and at times, they come over and I put my time into them where it belongs.

Well, a third cool thing about the IFCI class is you can fail the exam and get a do-over. It is not as much about trying to memorize things as it is about learning it.  Let’s face it; sometimes, absorbing everything we just went over is like taking a drink from a fire hose. We get something, but often things spill over. I have a great memory and recall, but have missed too many questions and had to redo an exam regardless. MORE…..
