    I failed FAR yesterday, with a 64, ouch. Does anyone know how long it will take to receive the email from NASBA saying the breakdown of which sections I bombed?

    That email is pointless. It tells you how you did against other test takers. Just b/c you did worse in a section doesn't mean you did bad. And also b/c you did better in one doesn't mean you did good :).

    ie. If you scored a 75 in section but majority of others did 85, you scored worse

    If you scored a 40 but others did 20, you scored better.

    -----------------------------
    BEC - 77, 03/2015 (first try)
    FAR - 79, 05/2015 (second try)
    REG - 83, 12/2015 (first try)
    AUD - 84, 03/2015 (first try)

    I got 99 problems but the CPA ain't one.

    To some extent I agree with you EuroAddict. But it provides us some kind of guidance per se to brush up on some weak areas. I am too waiting for the breakdown of my Audit section. I know the report is not completely objective but it does tell us some areas we need to improve our understanding I guess.

    BEC- PASS

    They are not worth the paper they are printed on…..regardless, you need to treat your retake like you are taking it for the first time.

    FAR: 63, 55, 62
    REG: 65, 77*
    AUD: Fail, 64, 71
    BEC: 72, 74, 81

    I know the report usually comes the next day after score release, but if you got a passing score, does it take longer than 1 day?

    FAR= 72-84
    Audit= 73-82
    BEC= 74-75
    Reg=77

    Martin, the last 2 exams that I passed I received the notification that I had passed around noon the following day.

    Thanks, the reason I was asking is because when I passed FAR it took longer than 3 days to get the report. Also, on the passing score, I only received the first page with no breakdown.
