Does anyone know when the loophole will start working for Wisconsin? I’m waiting on my Audit Score which its sounds like is out but not sure when the loophole would begin working.

BEC - 80
REG - 74
FAR - 72
AUD - Waiting

I e-mailed… why do I have a sick feeling in my stomach that I won't get any response…

Cause you won't. Geneva is our state coordinator and i'm still waiting for a reply from my e-mail this morning…

I have the same sick feeling when I think about my score being posted tonight. I'm guessing I should be more excited when I check my mail the next few days instead of hitting refresh.

I wonder what exactly it means that scores were “released” yesterday. Obviously they weren't “released” online. None of us received a score. Does that mean they were mailed yesterday or simply released to the state, but not on NASBA? I really don't understand how our scores work their way through the system.

FAR - 94 (7/10)
AUD - 99 (8/20)
REG - 99 (10/15)
BEC - 88 (11/20)

What about the whole loophole business I've read about on other threads… has anyone from WI had any luck with it? When I try to re-register in Ohio for the exam all I get is an error message saying the exams are still in process… I don't get to a screen with greyed out exams or anything like that like other people have said.

@ jjbloomer – That is a good sign for you. I'm guessing you get that message because you have either passed all parts, or you have passed and have an NTS outstanding for the parts you haven't passed.

The loophole worked for me the July/August window. I just had one NTS at that time and it was for FAR, when I checked the loophole after the AICPA released the scores FAR remained greyed out while all the other parts I was able to click on. Turns out I passed.

Hopefully the loophole is working this time around as well because BEC is still greyed out for me. But I don't want to put too much faith in it because six years ago when people first started receiving their scores and posting them on the main Oct/Nov score released thread some people said the loophole wasn't working. Who knows.

I'm pretty sure this means they were mailed yesterday. A friend and I called several times today and this is our best guess. I finally reached a girl who actually sounded like she knew what she was talking about and she said I should should receive my score in the mail by the end of the week or the beginning of next week. She said everything looked good (there were no holds) throughout the process. Nobody has any idea why we can't see them online. Maybe a glitch in the system? Maybe the new test is messing their system up? (after all, WI is the only state to wait until 2011 to release the scores, right?). Whatever the reason, I think we will receive our scores in the mail before we see them online.

@Wiscojake – Yeah I had all 4 exams on the same NTS and got 3 passing scores back on December 3rd for the November/December Wave 1 release.. just waiting on FAR now which I took November 29th.

When I looked through other threads I could never really tell if the loophole was working or what to even look for because people would post speculations about it until they apparently got their score and then they'd never post again to say what their results were.

FYI – The loophole worked for me on all previous exams. However, as was mentioned, the message displayed may differ depending on whether any remaining sections have an outstanding NTS or not. But, in general, if you can't get in to re-register, it's a very good sign, regardless of what the message specifically states.

FAR - 94 (7/10)
AUD - 99 (8/20)
REG - 99 (10/15)
BEC - 88 (11/20)

Hey everyone. First-time poster, though I have been following this thread particularly close as I wait for my FAR score.

I just wanted to say that I think I might have found another loophole. I just tried checking my score using other states instead of Wisconsin. I was able to retrieve a score from Michigan's site. It reported an advisory score for FAR of 83. Before I go out and celebrate, can I trust this information?

Wisconsin Candidate. NTS 450
BEC - 82 AUD - 85
FAR - 83 REG - 71, 86

WOW…. it DID work… mine says 91.

[jjbloomer]

I checked the scores from my other exams with the old section ID numbers and they work too.

Accounting Pilot, you're my hero. I gotta buy you a beer sometime. I passed FAR.

[Anonymous]

Worked for me too….I'll be sitting for BEC again. Joy.

[Jayz11]

WOW — this works — BEC – 81, AUD – 74

[WisconsinCPA2be]

Accounting Pilot- You're my hero. 78 on BEC. Woo Hoo. 3 down 1 to go.

Paper Exam May 2002; AUD 62, LPR, 63, FAR 49, ARE 70
Paper Exam Nov 2003; AUD 72, LPR, 72, FAR 67, ARE 71
