I dont think you can do 400 some hours of studying and fail the test. Not possible IMO.

For the BEC score release last window I was up until 2 am on the score release thread constantly refreshing the page. Mind you, I started monitoring the thread very early in the day. The experience was very very bad. I DO NOT intend to do a repeat of that. I honestly cannot express to you how much just sitting around your computer for hours on end refreshing the page sucks.

The scores are supposed to be released on Wednesday I think. I’m gonna volunteer for a bit then go swimming. Later, I’m going to buy a six pack, go home, and watch a movie. My hope is that ill fall asleep and wake up sometime early in the morning thursday. Then, ill check my score.

What does it mean when the ILBOA says they haven't received my AUD score from 7/8 yet. I have a friend who took AUD a week later (at the same place) and has their score already.

Any ideas?! Are they using mine to grade everyone elses? hahaha…I wish!!

@Dice, have you called the AICPA?

@DJN – Good idea. Picking up the phone now.

***ADVICE MUCH NEEDED***

For reasons that are irrelevant to this question, I am making a serious attempt to have REG and BEC taken before August testing window completes, i.e. the board needs to receive my exam by September 1st.

I've already scheduled REG for Aug 23rd. I am looking to schedule BEC as late as possible in order to ensure the exam is received in time. I've heard from others in a post that AICPA recommends 2 days. Here's the deal with that though – Monday September 1 is Labor Day, and Friday August 30th might not be a full staff since it is day before holiday weekend.

If this were you, when would you schedule BEC to give you the most amount of time, while ensuring that it makes it in to the Sep 1 window deadline?

Thank you!!

B - (08/29/2013) Passed
A - (07/02/2013) Passed
R - (10/17/2013) 73 - Rematch
F - (05/29/2013) Passed

Found out my score yesterday and it still really hasn't sunk in that I never have to sit in a Prometric testing center ever again.

FAR – 75…all of my scores were close, but it meant that I did just what I had to and nothing extra.

8/6/12 BEC - 76
8/31/12 REG - 75
10/15/12 AUD - 76
7/15/13 FAR - 75

Finally Done with this exam after being eligible since May 15th, 2009

@P or F – Since it's the last wave of the window, they will get your test by September 1 even if you test on August 31. I took a test on May 31 and got my score. From what I understand, the only they really don't receive your score on time for the last wave is if it's opened up to the first week or two of the non testing month. You won't have a problem with testing on the last day of the month or even August 30 and getting your score on time.

[P or F.. I think Im gonna BARF]

Do you think the holiday weekend would have an effect?

B - (08/29/2013) Passed
A - (07/02/2013) Passed
R - (10/17/2013) 73 - Rematch
F - (05/29/2013) Passed

@ P or F, I took FAR on July 19, but the score was received on July 22. I had a feeling that I won't get my score in this wave and would have to wait until the next one, but I got my score today. Just wanted to share my experience.

FAR- 78
AUD: 77
REG: 71
BEC: 77

Update about ILBOA saying they did not receive my score. (for those who care or may have a similar issue)

Called the AICPA. They said they sent the scores to NASBA.

Called NASBA (again) and talked to Mr. Jons, who is the head coordinator for Illinois. He assured me my score was sent to the ILBOA because its one huge file and because others are reporting their scores, the issue is on the ILBOA side. He told me he can see my score, but could not tell me. UGHHHH

Called ILBOA (again). They kept telling me the issue is not on them. After explaining the issues with my online account a few weeks ago, I think i might have convinced someone my account is messed up. I'm supposed to get a call back after they look into it. I wonder if they will, or if I'm getting the run around, yet again. I don't think they know what it's like to be on our end.

This is the most frustrating experience ever. I sure hope this doesn't happen to anyone else.

P or F.. I think Im gonna BARF – If you look at different Prometric testing sites, they may have dates available for the last ten days of August. I am driving to San Antonio to retake my Audit test on a Sunday later this month.

Also, I would be hesitant to schedule an exam for the very last day of the window. If you get sick or have some other emergency, you can at least move the test one or two days.
