The countdown clock is only counting down to the day of the score release. It does not reflect when the scores will be available to view. Yes, the NASBA site crashes alot which is the reason the site will be down until the scores being transmitted by the AICPA have been received. This is to try and prevent the constant refreshing by no telling how many candidates which is what is crashing the site. If you get a message that the site is down, its because scores havent been fully received yet. Once all scores for the specific transmission have been received then they would all be available. It still does not mean that is all the scores for the window though… some exams take longer to get the results and are released later. TIPS: 1) If the site is down, try back later. It doesnt mean it crashed, it means the scores havent been posted. 2) If you log in and the site is not down, but there is no score for you, its because it was not received in that transmission, dont try refreshing constantly, it will not make the score magically show up. 3) The scores are not posted in any particular order, your friend may get a score before you and yours may not be available till the next day. GOOD LUCK
