Is it true if a person scores 40% or higher, they won't be a CI candidate?
A person qualifies for a CI if they have moderately-severe to profound, severe-profound or profound hearing loss.

In addition, speech discrimination in their better ear must be 60% or less and 40% or less in their worse ear.
