I took FAR, my last section, on Friday and as soon as I left the testing center I knew I failed!!! It was brutal. I psyched myself out in the middle of the test: I took the first testlet and was thinking “oh I got this, I’m doing good”…get to the second and bam…it feels not as hard!!! My mood changed instantly and thought “I must have not done as well on the first testlet as I thought :(” The same happened for the third testlet. My confidence just kept diminishing. Then I get to the Simulations. Normally I am so great at the Sims, that is where most of my points come from because I am better with application. This was not the case on Friday. I struggled with topics in the Sims and I got two research questions!!! I am good at them but I know one of those most likely won’t count which just made me more depressed. Needless to say I went drinking after lol.

But this week is KILLER!!!! I keep telling myself “enjoy the time off from studying and don’t think about it”…but all I can think about is it’s less than 4 days and I will know if I have to start this torture again. And the worst part is when people ask you “How did your test go?” Once you answer…”It was ok, don’t think I did as good as I would like” they come back at you with the “Oh I bet you passed” UGH UGH UGH. I know they are trying to help but that does not help. That is the most infuriating thing they say to me. HOW DO YOU KNOW HOW I DID???? You don’t ugh and like they act like it’s no big deal…it’s my career…If I have to take this again I am not going to tell anyone..that way I don’t have to answer any ridiculous questions about “How I Did”

I’m glad to have this place to vent to try and keep some of my sanity during this stressful week that helps to determine my fate lol.

This last wait was also by far the shortest, which is nice. I'm definitely feeling anxious…

If I pass I'm going to run screaming outside.

Unfortunately I live in Vegas. That is partially why I didn't study as much as I needed for FAR. I guess I'll see what happens tomorrow.

AUD - 76
REG - 78

@aaronmo – 96,89,86..wow I know you will ace it. Really motivating.

yea aaron, your past scores tell me you will pass…but the uncertainty of not knowing always puts doubts in the back of our minds

I think score release anxiety is worse than night before exam anxiety lol At least the night before the exam you can be productive and study. With score release all you can do is wait and think about it. :/

FAR: 74 1/15/16, 72 7/2/16 -_-
BEC: TBD
REG: TBD

The time building up to the score release is 100% worse than the time building up to the actual exam.

The score release is just an instantaneous rush of raw emotion. In a split second you can be on cloud 9 or down in the gutter. Pretty messed up actually..

Thanks gents, but it ain't over till' it's over. I also had the worst background in BEC and a real bear getting down COSO and IT frameworks.

TODAY IS THE DAY!!! And I can think of nothing else!!! I hope that we all passed! IT would be nice to go into 2017 not having to study 🙂

I honestly think a good chunk of pretest questions went to the random IT crap they threw on my exam. Who knows for sure though..
