For those out there that have had more experience with all of this. Why is there such a slow roll of release of results? Do the boards truly have to approve NCEES prior to them submitting the results and as such some states are just faster at that?

Sounds like it. I remember Minnesota was bad at that for the PE exam. We were almost always the last to get our results because they had a policy that our results were to be mailed out prior to NCEES showing the results. Since it's CBT now, it doesn't matter anymore though.

The way I understand it is that NCEES releases to the states, then the state boards release the results. When I took the 8 hour PE exam, I took it in New Jersey and had to wait an additional few days for results to be released. Some states have a notorious reputation for being slow. Also, for the SE exam, I would imagine it doesn't matter where you took the test, but what state you chose to have your results sent to.
 
Is it normal to receive the manual verification under actions when you pass the exam? I don't remember seeing/receiving that for the gravity portion. Best of luck to everyone with their results!!
 
Here’s my theory on scoring although it only applies to buildings. Each AM correct answer is worth 1 point for a total of 40 points in the AM. In the afternoon there are a total of 40 available points also. 10 points for an A, 5 for an IR, an 0 for a UA.
You need a total of 70% to pass or a 56 out of 80.
I took the vertical 3 times before I passed and am on my 4th lateral attempt so I’ve followed these threads for quite some time and I have yet to see anyone with a 56 or above receive their scores.
Those of you that had 30/40 in the AM and a A,A,IR,U got a 55. So you were one point away.
just a Theory but I have yet to be disproven

Just received SE Lateral results (Connecticut Testing Site, Alabama Board). Finally got the green box on the 4th attempt, 4 years to the day after I got the result that I passed the vertical portion. Being so close 3 times (got between 28-30 in the morning and A-A-IR-U on all 3 previous attempts), I'm still in shock. I can't even quantify the amount of hours studying at this point.


For those who didn't get the result you wanted, please keep trying. You can absolutely do this! I know it hurts, especially if you were very close (trust me, I know 3 times over), but use your experience, get back on the horse, and keep going. If I can support anyone with any advice, I'd be more than happy to. Best of luck to everyone out there, and congrats to everyone else that passed.

Interesting, I think It is possible to even get partial credit in the afternoon say you may get 7/10.
 
I just talked to the Nevada board. They said that NCEES emails them for confirmation, once the board says yes, it's on NCEES to update our account. NV board said that they have already okayed the result release. So NCEES needs to update our account with the result.
