The "Acceptance" does not necessarily means a full score. Suppose an essay problem is of 10 points, I guess the grader would still grade it into 0 to 10 points, with top 3 grades, 10, 9, 8 for "Acceptance" and the rests for "need improvement" or "Unacceptable". Four "Acceptances" may just mean 32 points out of 40. So this person got 54 points out of 80 in total. Just a guess.I read that there was a person that had a 22/40 score in April and 4 Acceptables in the afternoon and did not pass. If I were this person it would be hard to come to terms that a 62/80 = 78% does not display minimum competency.
My impression was that the morning and afternoon parts are combined together to be evaluated. But NCEES explicity stated either section, vertical or lateral, needs to pass individually.I took both vertical and lateral. I feel the same way: the level of difficulty is similar to SEI and SEII but to pass the afternoon's session yot got to be very careful. Many tricks there.
BTW, how much is needed to pass the morning session? 24/40? 26/40 or 28/40?
IBut_21: I just looked over NCEES website but I couldn't find where they mentioned "need to have a combined passing score for the morning and afternoon in addition to that a minimum competency score for each part". For my understand, if you can pass both morning and afteroon section, then you pass the exam.
