    I read several threads where people were having difficulties passing the test that accompanied the class.  This really gave me anxiety. Is this really that difficult to pass?  Each day I'm growing more and more frustrated.

    I wouldn't say it is easy, but you can do it. You will be fine if you study, use the manual at face value, and go with your gut. Have you started your first attempt yet? I always study, do the practice videos, and then just try. If I need help, I reach out to my trainer or Teachstone, who point me in the right direction. Don't get discouraged, and definitely ask for help in between test attempts if you need help.

    Thanks for the encouragement.  I've been introduced to CLASS last year through a trainer sent to do our school's observation.  What she did didn't seem that difficult.  just trying to imagine why the test would be so difficult.

    Good luck with testing! It gets easier over time, but it could take a couple tries when you're first learning (or even on your 10th year testing). Lol. Just depends on what testing videos you get. I wouldn't necessarily say that it's hard, but it is a complex process that takes some brain power! My suggestions would be to find a place where you can solely focus on the videos/test, use your manual for guidance, do the practices videos beforehand and try to split up the videos without doing them all in one day. Also, don't hesitate to reach out to Teachstone for reliability support, if needed.

    Hi @Queen Oliver,

    We just shared a new blog post, 10 Things to Do Before (and During) Your Reliability Testing, that I think might help you! 

    Best,
    Allison
