I spoke with NYSED yesterday and lady on the other end was very helpful. She explained there is no way we are getting our results this year. It's gonna be either 1st or 2nd week of January.
I wish they would get their stories to coincide. I would not have gotten my hopes up if it werent' for that first call in where a representative told me results should be in the week before Christmas. I'm angry, but I realize not because the result will be given in January, but because everyone said something different and half of the people are curt and confident in what they are saying as an absolute that you speak to.
They should realize that they are playing around with people's careers and can be holding up life decisions (significant tradeoffs are required in order to dedicate the substantial time needed to prepare for this exam). In addition, the later we know the less time there is to prepare for the next exam if we've failed.
I'm extremely bitter right now.
