Failing Score

• If you fail the Written (or Oral) Examination or the Skills Evaluation, your Score Report will tell you how to retake either or both parts.
• A new examination fee is required each time you re-take any part of the NNAAP® Examination. To re-take either or both parts, you must re-register online.

If You Receive a Failing Score

• If you fail either part of the NNAAP® Examination three (3) times, you will need to complete another training program and retake BOTH parts of the NNAAP® Examination, not just the part that was failed. 
• In addition, if you were scheduled to take the exam three (3) times and did not get listed on the Nurse Aide registry­ - either because of failing the exam or absence(s), you will need to complete another training program and retake BOTH parts of the NNAAP® Examination.
• See "Registration" and "Scheduling" sections for more details.

How to Read a Failing Score Report

If you do not pass the Skills Evaluation, you will get a Failing Score Report. The score report will list the five (5) skills that you performed and a score of Satisfactory or Unsatisfactory for each skill. Any skill with an Unsatisfactory result is considered a failed skill. You need a Satisfactory result on all five (5) skills to pass the Skills Evaluation.

Note: Use your Failing Score Report to help you study for when you retake the Skills Evaluation. A failed skill will show the reason for the failure, and you can use this information to make sure you do this the skill correctly when you retake it. Find the skill you failed, and study the steps, especially steps listed as Unsatisfactory on the score report.

In the example below, a candidate got an Unsatisfactory on the skill Hand Hygiene. The numbers 1, 5, and 10 printed below the skill refer to steps that were missed or performed incorrectly. To study for retaking the Skills Evaluation, you should turn to the Skills Listing in this handbook, look for the Hand Hygiene skill, and review all the steps, especially steps 1, 5, and 10.
