I'm calling it. Not today.

That's what I'm thinking. I think someone would have gotten results by now....

I'm calling it. Not today.

It's not even 8am on the west coast yet. Are we under the assumption in years past the results have come out before standard business hours in Pacific time?

I've seen results come out as early as 9:30 AM EST. Like @SoVA Eng said, someone would've received something by now. It's almost 11 AM EST.

Man, I thought today was going to be the day....

and yet here I am, still refreshing the NCEES dashboard

My spidey senses tell me it's going to be Thursday. I want it to be Wednesday...and just because I want the results to come out on Wednesday, it's going to be Thursday...because that's the way things work. lol

Posting mostly for my reference, but it's useful for everyone else too:
Exam Administration | Time of first release (eastern)
Oct 2020 0912
Oct 2019 1000
Apr 2019 1158
Oct 2018 1228
Apr 2018 0906
Oct 2017 1300?

Oct 2017 is when we finally started tracking times for all of the States. But we missed the timestamps for the first few. I put it at 1300 above, but it may have been earlier than that. A timestamped photo from Apr 2017 implies it happened before 1330 that day.

so you're saying, there's still a chance?

Yes, since NCEES is Eastern time.

A coworker of mine got his results from the October 2020 test on Tuesday at 3PM (central) in Texas

Yes, I updated the post to make it easier to others to follow.

 

[RBHeadge PE]

I maintain that anytime during business hours is possible. But for as long as we've been formally tracking it (~2017), it's happened between 0900-1300 eastern. So people can ease of the F5ing after 1300 eastern.

I think what we're trying to say is, someone else would have gotten their results earlier. They *tend* to start releasing in the morning.

ETA: I don't think he was the first one for that cycle to receive results at 3PM.

Texas tends to release on the afternoons of Day 1 of the release. They've got some internal thing they have to do before they authorize the release. My guess is that its related to getting the system set up to send out the scaled scores.

My table above was only referring to the initial release time.
