I feel like a small bunch of states will release Friday.

And then loads more on Monday/Tuesday with VT being Wednesday

 
AM for the Construction exam gave me hopes of passing.

Whatever hopes I gained from the AM got smashed to nonexistent after the first minutes of PM section.

Third time taking the test. I am now praying for a pass. More power for all, especially the retakers.

Definitely went through the roller coaster emotions like 3 times.....

 
Anyone else guessing their score in an attempt to calm themselves during this waiting period...
My guess is that maybe 20% of test takers do some variation on this approach. But no-one discusses doing it ahead of time, so everyone thinks they're unique in applying it.

I didn't do it the first attempt. I did a pretty elaborate version on the second attempt.

FWIW, you should be feeling comfortable-ish with a 58. That's about where I landed with my post-exam calc. Of course you only feel good until you factor in uncertainty in your analysis. See PRA comment above.

I did this basically (came up with a range from 52-60, so that wasn't SO comforting), but why are you assigning guessing a 10% EV? Should be 25% right? With 12 guesses you'd expect to get 3 right, not 1, which would push you right up to 60/80.

 
Whoops, I may have misled you with my 34 day post.

Last October, a lot of the results were released in the afternoon, i got mine at around 1pm. After 3pm we can call it a day.

I'm also a third time test-taker (Water Resources/Environmental) and I hear you buddy! Hopefully, the repeat takers will be done and done! Also, lots of good luck to the first timers too :) We're all in this chasm of suck together....Let the mind games begin!
