That's probably the problem. There are too many of us waiting on our final scores and we all earned the passing grade, but then they'd exceed their CPA approval allowance and so they're trying to decide how many people they should actually allow into the profession.
If I'd had just 1 more point on Audit 6 months ago, then I'd be done now too. Then I failedBEC after my passing credit expired and now am waiting on it again with you guys. I feel your pain
you know that makes sense. Sounds like for a bunch of us this is our last part. I have gottan a 72, 76 and lost credit for this test. i literally do not know what i'd do if i failed
I 100% believe that. They aren't percentage scores based on number of right and wrong. They're scores comparing you to the “average passing candidate.” They decide how many people they want in the profession each exam window. The average passing candidate is based on what they decide passing is for that window.
There's a reason you can feel great about the test and not pass (other people just did better and when you feel awful and pass (other people just did worse).
It doesn't have anything to do with ethics because they aren't lying about it. They just don't give you a lot of information about the scoring process. It's how they keep “CPA” prestigious.
In other words, candidates who are waiting for their last score, maybe do good in the exam, but still not pass due to high percentage of passing grades, that obviously, must be controlled?
