So wait. Am I to understand that we're supposed to be upset because NASBA is going to issue the scores according to their timeline that they set? It's not like they're late. If anything they're not meeting Jeff's timeline, so bust his chops if you want, but he was just making a good informed guess based on past history. If NASBA doesn't release till Wednesday, then by all means, go to town; but at this point, they're not missing deadlines. The reality is that we've been spoiled. They've consistently thrown candidates a bone, until they got greedy and asked too much (queried the servers too much and crashed them). If you want them to upgrade their servers to be able to handle your incessant F5's, then it's going to cost more to test. There's time between testing and results for a reason, and that's so they get it right. It's in the best interest of the profession.
I promise you, you don't want them to rush through it and not get the data integrity right. You definitely don't want to get your score, and then find out that because they rushed to get your score out faster, that they mixed candidates up. The data integrity is the very reason that there's a lag between the AICPA date and the NASBA date. With all that said, be thankful that they are consistently meeting those deadlines that they (not Jeff) set. Be even more thankful that there's a clock up that says there's a certain time of day you can check to look for your scores so you don't have to spend the day before wasting a perfectly good workday clicking away at something that's not there. That clock tells me that I can click on over at 8am Central tomorrow and look for my score so that I can actually spend today getting some much needed work done. Good luck fellow candidates, and especially this time of year, be thankful, be not spoiled brats. (I can totally cop to that too because I got my REG score back and was checking constantly for 3 days leading up to the scheduled release before the crash.)
NASBA doesn't exist to make your life miserable, so don't be a jerk about it. You'll get your score when they told you that you would. That's a good thing. I've got a promotion riding on this, so I'm as anxious as anyone, but this misguided anger is childish and should be classified as an “act discreditable to the profession”. /s
Hope everyone gets they grade they were hoping for!
B – 86 – 5/31/14
A – 82 – 4/30/14
R – 84 – 7/31/14
F – 69 – 8/31/14 – Re-test 11/30 Patiently looking forward to Tuesday.
