    Hi everyone,

    My score for REG expires 5/30/2017.

    I just noticed that Prometric had an opening for 5/30/2017 for 12:30 for testing.

    Currently my exam is scheduled for the 26th. I could really use that 3 day weekend for studying but am wondering if testing the day the old test drops off will be too late?

    I just got off the phone with the State board and they said this would be okay- but I wanted to confirm if any one else had done this?

    REG- Passed
    BEC- Passed
    AUD -Failed - Retake in October
    FAR- Scheduled 8/1/2016

    That's a question for your state board. I know it's usually BY that date, so for CA, I believe it counts. But it's worth a call.

    BEC 80 (10/23/15)
    FAR 72 (4/2/15); 83 (7/11/16)
    REG 52 (4/28/15)
    AUD (9/9/16)

    AICPA has to get your exam by midnight on the day your score expires. 99.99% of the time they get the score the same day you sit. The only exception would be some power outage that keeps prometric from transmitting the exam and I don't think I've ever heard of that happening.

    Thanks guys.

    State board said it counted- and was able to point me to where it states it on the website as well. (I've learned unless I can prove something with writing not to take it as 100% true)

    Far is my last exam and if I don't pass my REG score falls so I'm thrilled for an extra 3 day weekend of studying
