Hi All,

I took FAR for the first time in July of 2011. I failed with a 74. I took i again about a year later and failed again with a 74. I passed on the third try about 3 months after that.

I got a call from NASBA yesterday. They told me that there was a scoring error on the July 2011 FAR exam, and that i had actually passed it at that time. What!!?? They tell me almost two years later?

They said that they will refund me the money for the other two exams that i didn’t actually need to take since i passed the first time, but that’s all.

Does anybody think i can make a case to get some kind of compensation for the hundreds of additional hours of studying for it two extra times?

Thanks Jeff!

I would call 1-800-CPA-Exam or call your BOA and ask for the director if you don't feel like the person answering the phone is firing on all cylinders.

AUD - 79
BEC - 80
FAR - 76
REG - 92

Would we have been contacted if we “failed” a test during 2011 or 2012 in which we actually should have passed but then passed on the next try?

BEC 79 PASSED
FAR 75 PASSED
AUD 67, 77 PASSED
REG 73, 83 PASSED DONE FOREVER!

@jcoley3411 Yes – at least that's what I was told by the CT rep for NASBA.
