Yes, I agree this is going to be a long day! Hopefully they release the scores today too.

@Kayla86… you are waiting for your last part as well… FAR! Me too!!! What did you think?

[Anonymous]

me too me too. FAR was so irritating this time. When I first took it, like Kayla, I knew I wasn't ready but thought I'd give it a go anyway. The test was extremely challenging and I knew I had to guess on too many questions to pass and ended up with a 66. This time, my test seemed like a piece of cake. Which isn't a good sign. My first testlet was tough with a lot of calculations and I thought I did pretty well on it and the ones I wasn't 100% sure on I thought I guessed correctly. Then my second testlet comes and its all theory. Super super easy questions not a single calculation. So, I was thinking to myself well great, there goes my test. This was supposed to get harder. And despite it being easier, there were still a good handful of questions I wasn't sure on. Then third testlet comes, not harder at all! Still theory, no calculations. At that point I knew the test was crap anyway. So I did my best but still had a few uncertainties. Then for Sims, I left myself a good hour and a half. Used the research tab and think I did pretty well on those as well. Not anything I hadn't seen before except one which had to be test material. So, all in all my test was a big mess. I panicked because I didn't feel as if the questions got more challenging and that played tricks on my confidence and messed me up for the rest of the test. I'm just hoping that I somehow slipped by with a 75. I can't wait to be done with this mind game.

Does anyone know when the scores are supposed to be released? I've heard today (2/21) and tomorrow (2/22). I've heard today at 5 or tomorrow anytime. I'm going nuts trying to figure it out.

[Kayla86]

To be honest, I can't remember how I felt about the testlets getting harder or easier. I just remember thinking the questions seemed so weird and the first time around they seemed so much more straight forward. So who knows. When I passed AUD I thought the questions were so strange and there was no way I passed and some how I did so I am hoping for the same results here.

When I got to the Sims, I glanced at each one quick to see what the topics were. They all seemed like things I was fairly confident in, until I actually read what the Sims were, then I was pretty confused and scrambling to finish in time. It was terrible.

I felt like I got beat up haha, I was exhausted and wanted to cry. I probably would have cried had I not had to head straight to work afterwards. I am expecting a fail, just to semi brace myself for it if it happens.

AUD - 73, 82 7/2010
REG - 79 7/2010
BEC - 72, 74, 78 7/2011
FAR - 66, 83 1/2012 - AND I'M DONE! Best feeling ever.

According to Jeff they should be released today. Usually they're released around 5.

[Kayla86]

Last time I was waiting for a score (even though I knew I failed so it wasn't as intense) was in December and I was on vacation in Maui. Let me tell you it's so much nicer when scores start being released around noon while you're laying on the beach. Although I didnt see my score posted until I checked when I woke up once in the middle of the night there.

AUD - 73, 82 7/2010
REG - 79 7/2010
BEC - 72, 74, 78 7/2011
FAR - 66, 83 1/2012 - AND I'M DONE! Best feeling ever.

@Kayla86 I felt the same way. My sims were brutal!!! I mean I was able to work through about 4 of them feeling decent and I'm pretty confident I found my research questions, however, 2 of them were so confusing I had no idea what to even do. The one was not in any of my Becker review material so I am hoping this one was a test question. I had a lot of calcs in my MCQ and had to guess/marked a few as well that I was not sure on. I really have no idea how I did! Bottom line, my test was hard! I am going to lose credit for REG if I do not pass this one. So scared and nervous for this release! Think this is the worse one yet just because of my situation.

[Kayla86]

Yeah, this is the worst one for me too. Usually I don't get too worked up about the score release because I know I have more chances if I fail. This time I'll practically be back at square one if I failed. Blah, good luck to us I guess!

My husband keeps telling me to stay positive and I ask him what good that will do now?! Haaaa, being positive now isn't going to affect my score at all!

AUD - 73, 82 7/2010
REG - 79 7/2010
BEC - 72, 74, 78 7/2011
FAR - 66, 83 1/2012 - AND I'M DONE! Best feeling ever.

I hope scores start coming out mid-day! I'm going to be heartbroken if I failed FAR a second time. 🙁
