I've been lurking on this board and decided to sign up. The previous years release dates for the April SE exam are as follows (all in June with yyyy-dd format):

2011-29

2012-14

2013-13

2014-17

2015-11

2016-10

2017-09

So from this data and knowing that 2011 was the first administration of this exam, we can extrapolate that the 2011 April exam was the first cut score/anchor exam. With that being said, one would think that NCEES would already have the process and analysis in place so future cut score exams would be graded faster. I am hoping they have this wrapped up for us by the end of the week but with history as our guide, the 29th is within the realm of possibility.. It's hard for me to believe that grading takes this long as I'm already licensed in other areas and the large majority of my licenses were granted the SAME day. Not to mention testing for this license is only offered twice per year. I just had to get that off my chest, the stress monster is eating me over this ridiculous exam. (2nd time taking lateral BTW)
I think you need to add in test dates for best comparison.

Good idea. We are on day 60 now though and another post brought up the relative cut score date in 2011 being close to the release date. Based on the evidence, it could be as early as this past Monday or the results could come in July. Guessing at these things is all an exercise in futility anyway. We need a better system for administering licensure as I think every minute that goes by is a minute off of my life.

Reasons for release dates:

June 11 - Average of previous release dates not incorporating the 2011 exam

June 15 - Average of all previous release dates/Friday before October registration/I just feel like this is the day and by golly that's worth something

June 20 - 11 days past cutscore date (corresponds exactly to 2011 administration cutscore timeline)/During the 10th week.

June 22 - End of 10th week

July 5 - 81 day mark

July 6 - End of 12th week

Pick one, we'll bet on it.

July 6th, because NCEES doesn't care and they wanna see how many of us will die of stress related illness before then....

I sincerely hope they come out in the morning - I'm taking 6/15, 11:15 am EST.

I only took the vertical and felt fairly confident about it. However, the results dragging out like this have caused my anxiety to peak and I'm convincing myself I've somehow dropped the ball in a major way.

 
LOL, yeah. I am full-time here and part time at work until the results are out.
Are you a test taker too for April? if so, it would be 16.
Yep...I've had my laptop with NCEES and this forum open at my desk being constantly refreshed since the PE results started coming out...

I've passed the gravity already but failed lateral as seismic detailing isn't something I do (nor was it taught at the University when I went). I took a study course with school of PE and I now think I sit somewhere around 90% in the morning and 75% in the afternoon as I didn't have time to finish the 4th essay question. What worries me about this is the new cut scores and whether they average grades or what not. I am now biting my nails because I have read that if you fail one afternoon question, you fail the exam. I will definitely be able to answer that question soon as my question 4 was mostly unanswered with the exception of a bunch of scribbled text in the 10 minutes I had to work it.

 
Hello everyone, 

Anyone can show me how to check exam results with other tools except Ncees? thanks
