Passed with a 91...

I passed the Power PE. TX releases grades so I just checked - got a 91. Is there a thread where people are comparing grades or trying to determine the cut scores for the various exams?

Your 91 will be extremely helpful in determining cut score I'm sure.

where to check score?

Confirmed:  Cut score for Power PE was a 90.

Well considering only a 57% pass rate, that may not be too far off...

I know right?!?! Congrats man. I also past the Power PE (first attempt, one-and-done). No clue what my score was since I'm in Oregon. Mt guesstimate when I tallied was an 82%

My shakedown assessment: during the test I did what I've always done during my practice exams and assigned a rank to each question 3 = Confident that I have the correct answer,  2 = Pretty sure I'm right, or at least down to only two possible solutions (2:4 odds), and 1 = Total WAG or SWAG, I do not feel confident (1:4 odds).

Morning I had: 26x "3", 6x "2", and 8x "1"

Afternoon I had: 30x "3", 9x "2", and only 1x "1"

Total estimated score: 56*100% + 15*50% + 9*25% = 66.75/80 = 82% But again, that's just my estimate, in Oregon all I know is I passed.

I'd be curious to see what the LOWEST pass score was in Texas, that would help identify the cut score. So far the highest fail I've seen on here was 49/80 (61%) 

So so far we know the cutoff its between 61% and 91% (between 49/80 and 73/80)

Texas doesn't actually return the true score, i.e. 60/80 = 75%. The return an adjusted score with the minimum passing score pegged at 70% and everything else adjusted around that. So as a hypothetical 60/80 with a cut score of 54 might read as 80%.

Also recall that each exam has a different cut score... 

Thanks for the link. Didn’t know that TX releases scores
