So I took AUD today. I have read this forum for a year and have never posted. I passed three out of four (80, 81, 83), all in April/May 2010, but this is my THIRD time taking AUD so instead of feeling excited and accomplished I feel like a moron.

First time got three passing scores and a 74 in AUD. I thought, no big deal, take it again in July, study some more, what’s one more point?

Got a 73.

Confidence waivering. The material seems clear cut, this time I memorized way more, bought brand new review material so had way more practice questions, but the MC questions are like torture. I had less than five questions on each testlet, so less than 15 out of the 90 that I wasn’t confident about. I left FAR feeling like I got way more than that wrong, yet scored mid-80s, so this is good? Who knows…

The sims went awesome, but they went awesome last time and my breakdown thingy said I scored much stronger on the sims compared to passing candidates.

Thing that blows my mind is on the first one, all the testlets seemed about the same hard. Second time around, the testlests got harder first than easier. I imagine this means when I pulled the harder questions I answered them poorly so I pulled another set of easy ones? Third time, today, all about the same average hardness.

On my second you failed breakdown thing, my scores were all in the 80s except for one, 71. So why did I get a 73 when the time before I got a 74 and all scores were in the 70s and two were below 75? Grrrrr….

I hate AUD and I want to be done. And I hate the curve-that’s-not-a-curve. Ugh.

Thanks for listening.
