I am in TN and took the AICPA ethics exam last week. When I finished the exam it said I passed with a score of 88%. But I thought I needed a 90? I’m confused! Do I need to take it again? Will the software let me take it again if I already passed?

I think a pass for the CPA exam is considered a 90, for CPE purposes I think maybe an 80

I just took it as well, got a 100. Some weird questions that I got lucky on I assume.

However, I believe I read that TN requires a 90 for it to count.

FAR - 84
AUD - 94
REG - 86
BEC - 86

My Exam document stated the following;

If you are taking this course to fulfill a state board requirement, it is imperative that you include the postal code of any state that you wish to be notified about your exam results. You may choose up to five states. Once you have listed your states, the exam will automatically grade your results at the 90 percent level. If you do not list any states, the exam will automatically grade your results at 70 percent and you will only receive CPE credit and you will not have fulfilled any state board requirement.

AUD - 87 PASS
BEC - 79 PASS
FAR - 80 PASS
REG - 78 PASS
