This is for people taking their exams in the April/May 2010 testing window.

Recommended prep time for REG is 5-6 weeks @ 20 hours a week.

I talked to NASBA and they have my score. I get the “in progress” message. I've already passed Audit, and I'm registered for BEC and FAR already. So the only test I could register for would be REG if I failed. I'm assuming (hoping more than that) that it won't let me get into the registration part because I'm already registered for the two I need to pass and I can't register what I've already passed (AUD & REG). Wow, that's alot to twist around to make me optomistic for the day haha. Good Luck to all!

Anyone from TN able to register through the loophole?

Riddle me this…

I have passed 2 sections previously. I took Reg in May, and am scheduled for FAR in July. I'm in a NASBA state. I still get there ‘in process' message. Some folks can get to the section where you select your exam through the loophole. Is the reason that I can't use this due to the fact that I have an exam scheduled for July (on same NTS), or because I passed, or because my state stinks?

Also, I don't think the loophole is working anyway. I am guessing that we all are so unique that for over 50% off us, it won't actually work due to various state and NTS and exam conditions. Thoughts?

Also agian…where are all the posts?? Usually this thing is buzzing right now…and usually with people who are buzzed.

Good luck to everyone, and any input is welcomed.

Cheers!

Well, riddle me this…

Wouldn't it be easier to keep ourselves occupied for 2 hours and 22 minutes than worrying about the loophole that may or may not make us more frustrated because it says one thing or a score is grayed out? 🙂 Just kidding gomor, but I really am not sure. I've had a few friends unsure about the loophole when they tried it.

Who am I kidding though, I'm combing these boards and climbing the walls right now like a lot of people. Really need to find something to do to take my mind off the time.

BEC-74,78(2/18/10) REG- 77(6/23/10)
AUD-66,82 (05/25/11) FAR-75 (04/01/2011)

First, appreciate the response. Made me laugh. Second, I'm in agreement completely. Studying right now myself, which is awesome. I think all this talk of a loophole will just make for a greater letdown with a FAIL as they so kindly put it on our letters…

I'm just posting now, because I've been reading this forum today, and it seems like everyone is pretty confident, but I think they (NASBA) have just figured it out and fixed their website…seems like a control was lacking, reported on, and fixed. but maybe not…hopefully not

Are scores going to be posted today?

I think that “riddle me this” is the cutest thing I heard today. I needed that as my heart is about to pound out my chest waiting for my score. I wish I could take something to fall asleep so I could bypass the madness that is about to occur in the next couple of hours.

Less than two hours…hopefully!

BEC (09/2009) - 83
FAR (11/2009) - 87
Audit (02/2010) - 90

[gomordecai]

no reason not to make a joke or two out of this whole thing. Thanks.

Besides, with 6000 people hitting refresh on the NASBA site, most of us will probably have to wait an extra hour or so… What time to they post anyway? Is the post time like an hour away at this point? I have no idea… <:P

[GoBlue1221]

from my experience it usually has been shortly after 10pm eastern time. However, last window I did not get my audit score until 48 hours after AICPA release. Stayed up until 3am hitting refresh the night before. It was horrible! Not as bad as finding out you were not in the first wave though!

BEC (09/2009) - 83
FAR (11/2009) - 87
Audit (02/2010) - 90

[needmyLIFOback]

Prob sometime between 10pm-11pm EST…the other tests this window have been anywhere from 10pm-past midnight depending on NASBA state

FAR-99, AUD-99, BEC-91, REG-(5/29)

[gomordecai]

indeed… I've seen it earlier in prior test windows… I think, but I can't remember for sure. Too many facts falling in and out of my head these days.

so has everyone either given up on the loophole, or has it just been tried and discussed to death on the last 100 pages of posts or so…

PS, spending the last 2 hours with Timmy G. will only double the torture!! HA!

[jeff]

Scores ARE expected tonight, btw…

[needmyLIFOback]

Yes, I've given up on loophole, but it never did work for me. The prior 3 exams, it always said “still in process”…I have gotten my scores from 9:45pm to 11:30 pm EST for the first 3 tests….

FAR-99, AUD-99, BEC-91, REG-(5/29)
