Manual Exam Verification

[sumanmysore]

Has anybody ever purchased a manual verification? I got 67 on my PE civil structural and did not pass so I am debating if I should purchase this. Please advice.

Is 67 a scaled score? How many questions did you answer cirrectly?

If you have $75 burning a hole in your pocket, then maybe it is worth it. But considering it has never changed a failing score to a passing score then it would probably be a waste of money. My guess is you would need 2 answers changed. Chances of that are very small.  If you had a 69 (assuming 70 is passing), it may be worth it.  Even then, the chances of getting it changed would be very small.

Also think about what the verification truly is...They check to make sure your answers were properly transferred to the scoring system. If you did not fully erase 1 answer, before putting the correct answer,  that is not a valid response. I don't think they would put theanswer as the one you fully entered

I think so. Texas provides grades and somebody else here got a 70 and passed.

I think you are right. Its a waste of time and money. Don't understand why they do it in the first place.
