How often can candidates retake the WEST-E if they do not pass?

Candidates who do not pass the WEST-E are required to wait a minimum of 21 days before they can retake the test. This waiting period is in place to allow candidates sufficient time to review the material, improve their knowledge and skills, and better prepare for a subsequent attempt. By implementing a 21-day waiting period, the testing process is designed to support candidates in their educational development rather than encouraging multiple attempts in quick succession, which may not be beneficial for their learning. This approach aligns with best practices in educational assessment, ensuring that candidates have a fair opportunity to succeed on their next attempt.
