    I’m already having nightmares of seeing a sub-75 score for Audit. This usually doesn’t happen until the night before the scores are released.

    Last night I got a 46, a 70, and an 81.

    Does this happen to anyone else? Should I be on medication?

    FAR: 66, 75
    AUD: 67, 69, 70, 74, 74
    REG: 71, 79
    BEC: 73

    tonybrunoar- As far as medication, I am not so sure about that. But I have had nightmares of seeing sub-75 scores for FAR and I have not even taken the FAR exam yet. If you already took the exam just relax (I know its very hard to do when not knowing the results) but you cant go back in time. I am sure you did fine as your past Audit scores show you have been improving with each test you take. If not your getting closer and you will eventually get there. My advice would be to kick back, relax, listen to music/exercise, and do whatever it takes to get your mind off of being worried about the results. After that, get back in there and do whatever it takes to knock out any exams you have left to take.

    FAR- 53, next time 5/5/16
    B: 7/30/16
    A:TBD
    R:TBD

    I dream about it too. The worst I've had so far is the night before score release I had a dream that I woke up and checked my score and got a 75. Then when I woke up I thought it was real…. So after I convinced myself it was a dream and checked my real score, the 73 even worse….

    FAR - 77 (6/2016)

    tony – I dream about it too. For my FAR retake I dreamed I got a 85 and actually passed with a 80. After this last AUD exam, I've dreamed of a 73 and then a 78 a few days later, so I'm not sure what to think. If I could just get the average of the two I would be happy 🙂

    I was joking about the medication but I do think a drink or two will be necessary to get to sleep the night before score release.

    I've already had 2 dreams that I failed 🙁

    First with a 69, then 74.

    I've never dreamt that I failed with my past 2 exams, so I'm worried. WAH! Panicking until the 4th :X

    AUD: 98
    REG: 91
    BEC: 86

    DONE DONE DONE and DONE all on the first try! It IS possible, just keep on studying!

    FAR was my last one and the night before score release I had SEVERAL “nightmares” about my score. I was CONVINCED, absolutely CONVINCED that I got a 74. I woke up an hour before the release, just because (I HAD planned to sleep in to avoid the website crashes) and just stayed up hitting reload. When I got my 81, I woke up everyone in the house with my squeal…

    I'm already palpitating this early. Score release will be 9am Thursday UAE time. I have a deadline on that day so I'm thinking of checking it after office hours so I would still be able to concentrate on my task, in case I fail 🙁

    FAR (Apr 2015) - 88
    AUD (July 2015) - 86
    BEC (Oct 2015) - 82
    REG - 73, 70, retake Sept 2016

    The dreaded countdown! I live in CA. So have to wait till 4th morning. Yikes!

    No nightmares, though! Hopefully I pass AUD. Since I am preparing for FAR, I did not spend too much time thinking about a completed exam which I can't do anything at this point. A lesson learned after failing AUD for the 1st time & wasting time before & after score release.

    FAR - < than 75, 10/2013, 2/2015
    BEC - < than 75, 10/2013
    AUD - < than 75, 8/2015, 1/2016

    Usually I do not dream regularly but when score release night is near my brain gets crazy. Last night I dreamt that a lady on the radio was giving away the scores. She first identified a candidate and then gave a brief description of the candidate's personality and their exam experience. It was on alphabetic order… very frustrating…..

    Good luck to everyone waiting on 2/4 release! I hope we all passed – I'm waiting on AUD. I'm fortunate that I haven't had much anxiety about exam scores (I've already taken and passed both BEC and REG). The only thing that's different this time is I can't concentrate to start studying for FAR because my confidence about AUD isn't as high as it was for the other 2 exams. It's also annoying taking an exam at the beginning of a window because the wait is so much longer. It's easier said than done, but don't try to think about the score release that much. A. There's nothing you can do about it. B. It's like a kid waiting on Christmas – it seems like it never gets here the more you think about it. 🙂

    BEC - 88 8/29/15

    In IL, the score is usually up from 6am to 11am. I usually couldn't sleep for the entire night before the score release morning. Good luck everyone!
