Okay, now I am freaking out. I found my Jurisdiction ID, and entered it into Oasis, and this is what I got: “Our records indicate that you do not have an active application or registration at this time”. So I'm wondering if I don't have an active application because I failed, and I need to re-register again. 🙁

Oh wow, that's weird….what did you take and when did you take it? Audit right?

Since you took it and it is your last one, maybe that means you passed. Go to NASBA and try to re-register for the exam to see what happens.

I don't think that is what it means. You sat for BEC, right? That just could mean that they received your score. Did you do the loophole?

I tried the loophole yesterday and it was going to let me register and I was totally freaked out. I logged out and checked this sight for more info. Then I tried to get back to the loohole and it told me scores were in process. So I am not doing that stupid loophole anymore because it just freaks me out. I would love to hear by friday so that I can rage on my week off. Come on Baby!!!!

[Shawna]

Duh – Angela – I just remembered that you are waiting for AUD like me! Sorry for being forgetful. Did you do the loophole?

Neil, that's why I'm scared to use it too. It has worked for me before but I've seen it on here where it didn't work for certain people. What state are you in?

I took BEC on 5/3/10 (Wave 1) and passed. Then, I took AUD on 5/28/10 (Wave 2) and am waiting for my score. I tried the loophole thing, but got the same message as I did last time when I used the loophole for BEC which worked for me. Something about all sections of the exam still in process. I don't think this means anything though since scores have not been released to NASBA yet.

[Shawna]

Yeah Angela – I agree. I just thought MAYBE they released a couple AUD scores since your oasis status is different.

That is funny – I took BEC in wave one too….I can't get over the similarities with us. We should meet for lunch just to have a laugh about it!

Seriously! Let's hope another similarity between us is that this is our last exam. Fingers crossed for a celebration lunch together lol!

[OverwhelmedHG]

Well I wouldn't read a whole lot into the Oasis status since they haven't released the scores Angela. I think it is probably because this is your last part – if anything.

It's too funny how you and Shawna have so much in common! 🙂

OverwhelmedHG – I'm going to try to stay positive despite reading the Oasis status and not knowing what it means. Although once the scores have been released to NASBA, I really think the loophole works based on prior experience with it and what everyone has said about it. What a grueling process waiting for scores…

christian2823,

I studied 3-4 hrs a day for a week and then about 6-9 hours the following week. I too have a strong short-term memory. I gave the exam in 2 weeks because the longer I give myself, the more time I end up wasting. I've seen from my experience that I can stay better focused and disciplined for shorter durations. I try to get my fundamentals of the topics really well. I don't spend much time solving MCQs first. Once Im familiar with the concepts and I know that I know, I move on. Fianlly 2-4 days, I spend only on solving problems including simulation. I made my study sessions in the last 4 days lasting 4.5 hrs each (1 or 2 a day). I would not leave my desk in that 4.5 hrs for anything/anything! It helped me sit tight and concetrate during the exam.

BEC (91), REG (76), AUD - 05/23 (73), 07/03, FAR - 08/01

Although I am convincing myself that “If you can wait and not be tired by waiting…..” curiosity forces me to ask if anyone tried the loophole for DE.

Shawna-

I'm keeping up with you…wishing you the best of luck and a passing score 🙂

AUD 95 (3/5/10); BEC 83 (5/28/10); FAR 71, 72, 74, 82 (10/16/10); REG 65,80(11/23/10)
ALL DONE 🙂
