Based upon the last 9 releases and @matt267 's "brilliant" observation (adding 3.5 days to April results to account for thanksgiving) there is a  0.0000% chance results will be released today.

You're welcome.

 
On this day last year, I got my FE results, 4 days after taking it.

I think they need to do computer exams for the PE too so we don't have to wait freaking forever.

How is the probability of "results being released" being determined?  As each day passes and the projected pool of dates that the results being released diminishes, does the percentage increase also for each remaining day?  For example, on November 24th:

12/15 at 8.0667% 

12/14 and 12/16 tied for second with 7.9035%
As of today, does 12/15 still have a 8.0667% probability or is it closer to 9% or 10%?

Side note: I've been using a Star Wars Episode 7 movie release date, online countdown timer as my anticipated PE results release date.  As of today, there are 18 days left.
