Holy Cow! It is still surreal for me. I've checked 4 times just to make sure that the site was correct.

That is so great! I have thought about going through the process and it seems very intimidating. Congratulations on your big achievement. I know that it took a lot of work to complete and you deserve to celebrate.

I know it is a big relief to know your results and that you passed. I certified in 2008. It was the longest and toughest thing I have ever done. Congratulations again and defintely go out and party!

Slooper,
I'm very happy for you!!! Your accomplishment and excitement encourages me all the more to proceed with my plan to join in the fun

Question for you:

How long of a process was it for you? Is it possible to complete everything within a year and not lose one's mind?

In response to your question:

Yes, it is possible to do it in one year - that is what I did.

As far as not losing your mind, I can't guarantee that. I was also doing my master's degree at the same time. It was A LOT of work and there were many moments of emotional breakdowns and doubting what I was doing. However, it caused me to be so much more reflective about what I do and why I do it.
