Tennessee LPC- NCE

I am suppose to take the NCE next month but something was brought to my attention and I’m not sure if I need to reschedule. Does anyone know how long the NCE scores are valid for? I’ve heard some say 5 years, 3 years. I’m not sure. I am hoping to be licensed in 3 years (if not earlier. I’m working in group practice so my hours depend on individual clients).

If you are in TN please help me figure this out I don’t want to pay and take a test and not get to use my scores.
