This may be a silly question...Is it possible to pass each of the four components, but not become national board certified?
What Works Hi Mrs, D.

It's not a silly question, but I'm not sure we know the answer because the number of points needed to certify in this new process hasn't been determined yet. I know that one cannot certify if there is a score lower than 1.75 (the floor score) even if other scores are higher...so that means that one MUST pass all components. But ...See More

Denetta While I haven't read the part of scoring guide that you mention, I did score component 3 last summer.
