Shellgirl,

Framework and Standards (17-23%): stronger

Financial Statement Accounts (27-33%): weaker

Financial Statement Accounts have bigger weight than Framework. everything else was comparable.

I hope this helps.

Keep in mind that if you had received ‘comparable' on everything (of course you would never know this since they don't break down passing grades), then you would have scored a 75-80. So it makes sense that if you maybe scored on the lower end of ‘comparable' on some of the other sections and weaker on a section that makes up about 30% of the exam, that you didn't pass.

Use this info to help guide your studies. It seems that you have one real weakness, and a bunch of areas that could improve (topic-wise). I don't know first hand how not passing a section would feel, but I know the gut-wrenching feeling and near sickness I feel when score release comes about, so I can empathize with your disappointment. There are plenty of people on this forum who have had to retake sections once, twice, even 3+ and still stuck it out. Good luck with your studies!
