Hey Everyone,

With the new test format and therefore the Q2 scores not coming out until August, there are some really unquie situations.

I failed AUD with a 72, and have a retake in early April. I also have to pass BEC. Both of those test would need to be passed before November or my FAR exam expires.

Therefore, I was thinking about taking AUD in April and July/August(Before know the April Score) and BEC in June/July. Is anyone else considering this? What if I pass AUD in April, but fail in July, will that alter my April Passing score?

This Q2 stuff has got me all confused!

FAR 75 (5/19/16)
REG TBD
AUD TBD
BEC TBD

Can you register to sit for a section of the exam if you haven't already received your score for it?

I think that's the problem here…I too lose FAR in November and if I need to take AUD in Q2 and don't receive my score until August I'm not sure I'll be able to take it in Q3…

@NeedsA75

im in the exact same boat..

if im not mistaken, as it currently stands, we essentially won't be able to test in the 3rd quarter.

I am sincerely hoping that there will be something done to help those of us in this position… because we would basically only be getting 5 windows to pass this test in.

You won't be able to retake aud until you get your score for your april attempt (in August)

Don't worry EZ_SIMS, its not gonna come to that. We are gonna be in the clear in a few more days…

Seriously though, how has this issue not been addressed about people not being able to sit in the Q3 window? What a clusterf*ck

I emailed my state board and they said they will consider extensions on a case by case basis. Honestly if I miss my AUD this time and take in apr/may and can't know til Aug if I passed I'll put in the papers to request an across the board 1Q credit extension. (Since I will have lost 1Q essentially being unable to re-test in June/July), then if I miss again I'll request again. I shouldn't be in a worse-than-normal position on this. It's wrong……

Again, I have a feeling we are done and just don't know it yet! Positive vibes only..

Bummer, that is unfortunate. In that case I really hope the State Boards show some mercy as I feel that I am at a disadvantage.
