Oct 2017 Results Map

[Mainlander21]

Thanks. So to confirm, this is out via license lookup on Dec 4? And not via NCEES?

Just asking so I know how to update the map.

That's correct. I called the Board and they were entering names of passers (12/4) into their system, and not NCEES.

Heard from PCS that the MA board has received the results and are reviewing them...any bets on when they'll release them?

Hopefully soon. I think NJ is a PCS state and they have their results according to the map.

MN confirmed via phone call that results will be mailed out today or tomorrow. Then it's up to USPS...

Still getting the results mailed? No NCEES website for you guys?

Just got an email back from Carrie at CTS (IL) and she said “Results will hopefully be released by the end of the week”

Let the torture continue for us Illinois folks...

I could puke I'm so nervous.

I understand once they mail it they release results to NCEES.

Same here.

Seriously, unless the people at CTS are into BSDM, I can't understand why are they doing this.

Same.  I'm starting to get the doubt that I didn't pass even after feeling great when leaving the exam.  It doesn't help that most other states have their results already.

I understand once they mail all of the letters they release results to NCEES.

FIFY

Once upon a time the contract served a purpose. I'm not sure its still needed. Now they do it because they are contractually required to do it. Most states have abandoned these contracts.

I don't know why I bother to keep refreshing, but there is just a sliver of hope they will release today.  Who knows though, I don't know why I expected much out of Illinois...

Does anyone know off-hand if the cut score is the same for every state?

The cut score varies for each test and each cycle. NCEES recommends what passing score should be adopted for each test iteration. For simplicity w.r.t comity and reciprocoty every state adopts the recommendation. But some states, Georgia and I think Alabama, offer bonus points to applicants under certain circumstances such as being a veteran. So a passing score in Georgia may not be a passing score elsewhere. It's only an issue if that engineer tries to apply by comity to another state.

Thanks for the clarification, I meant to ask if the cut score was the same for every state given that the discipline and PM exam are the same.

Yes

More common but less rare

Wait, what?

Are Alaska and Hawaii always like the last ones to be out?? 

Alaska is usually one of the first states. This cycle, it's been delayed for some unknown reason. Hawaii is historically around the middle of the pack.

Alaska board has had a few staffing changes and they're not as responsive as they have been in the past.

It's terrible, I haven't been productive at work for the last two days!  Here's to hoping we get results either today or tomorrow so I can go back to being a decent employee.
