Matt. I just did the live chat as well. She told me that the state already has the results, NCEES is just waiting for the state to give them permission to post.

:waiting: see, they ARE playing with us.

Was it a good percentage?

80%....could have been better, but not bad....Its good enough the pass, which is all I cared about...I have a few friends who got 69% which is heartbreaking.

this is why just pass/fail is SOOOO much better

So those with 69% failed

I agree. I do think it's good the give out the diagnostic for those who failed, so they can work on what they need to, but the actual percentage for those who pass isn't necessary. I admit it was weird for me, because this morning when I got the email all I cared about was a passing score. When I saw Pass I was crazy happy, but then I saw the score and got a little greedy. I know it shouldn't matter because passing is really all that matters...

Yeah 69 is a fail....Its pretty tough, because I also studied with them, so I wanted all of us to pass....C'est la vie....

170/240 is a failing grade? That's a bit discouraging.

I just got word from Continental Testing for IL that the FE results will be posted "In a day or so." Here's hoping that isn't lip service.

 

[snickerd3]

wow PE out before FE in IL that's crazy

 

[Camel1307]

Nah it's weighted...So 70% is between about 120-130.....

This is torture haha

I think I was wrong. I forgot to account for the second part of the test being weighted.

Don't forget, it's not a raw score. See: http://ncees.org/exams/scoring/
