Say two professional gamblers were to approach you today. One is willing to wager that you failed the PE exam, and the other is willing to wager that you passed. Which offer would you take, and how much money would you bet?

Of course this has as much to do with your appetite for risk as it does with your confidence on the exam, so keep in mind that by paying the exam fees you have already essentially already bet a couple hundred dollars that you can pass.

When I finished, I set my theoretical wager at $1000. Driving home, I reduced it to $750, and later realized I did something wrong on two problems, and adjusted accordingly for a final answer of $500.

How much would you bet that you passed (or failed)?
