Here's what I got on my CUNY: 87%, HNT: 65%, HNT+10: 30%, 50 % on my CNC words. I took this test today.

Marcia Clark ,my CI audi, told me I got zero on all of my tests before I got implanted. Dang. I thought I had scored better on my CNC words.

That is awesome. It feels good to see results on paper. Those cnc words are a tough!!!

I keep telling myself one day, I'm going to get those words. I feel like I have heard the same words list for the past 35 years. But one day I will hear them. :)
 
Way to go! Sounding like good results so far. How many times have you been for mapping???

Consonant-vowel-consonant word list. Here is an article on it.

Gifford, Rene H., Dorman, Michael F., McKarns, Sharon A., Spahr, Anthony J.
Combined Electric and Contralateral Acoustic Hearing: Word and Sentence Recognition With Bimodal Hearing
J Speech Lang Hear Res 2007 50: 835-843
at this web site - Combined Electric and Contralateral Acoustic Hearing: Word and Sentence Recognition With Bimodal Hearing -- Gifford et al. 50 (4): 835 -- Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research

it discuss cochlear implants. but tells a little about the CNC word list.

It is just the word list or sentence your audie uses and you answer to tell how much you are comprehening.

Is it possible to go bilateral? Will insurance pay and will you qualify?

I love being bilateral. I do practice with one at a time and wow what a differences with both on. Are the med-el comfortable? I almost picked them because they are starting a bilateral research study. It was not ready by the time I had surgery.
 
Congrats and I am happy for u. :)
