Frequently asked questions about CPA Exam score releases:

Q: What is the difference between an AICPA and a NASBA score release?

A: The AICPA has to release scores for a particular section of the Exam before anything else can happen. Once that happens, then scores can start being released. Everything depends on the AICPA. The way that it works is that the AICPA releases scores to the states. Some states are independent – such as California, Illinois, Virginia, Texas, etc and release through their own state website. The majority of states, however, release their scores through NASBA. It’s important to remember that the AICPA controls score releases and until they release scores – all is quiet.

Q: I didn’t get my score and Wave 2 seems to be over – where is my score?

A: Your score is in what I called “Wave 2a” – which is usually approx. 5 business days after Wave 2 is released via NASBA for a particular section. This isn’t official, but “Wave 2a” scores tend to be between 72 and 78.

    I took AUD yesterday, and beyond the exam losing its internet connection between testlets 3 and 4, it got ridiculously tough. I'm nervous as this is my final part (after taking the exams 12 times previously). I want this over with, just very worried that I bombed the ending, and I choked.

    My FAR score was up on the NASBA site in WI on Friday but it wasn't there today. What's going on? Was the score I saw correct?

  3. Jason Harris 30. Aug, 2009 at 9:55 am

    It is likely correct. That happened to me as well on BEC.

    Hi, what 'new sims' are you referring to? Thanks

    This exact thing happened to me and I hate to tell you but the results were bad. I thought that I still passed because I only didn't finish the very last tab and like one sentence of the communication, but I ended up with a 63 :( I'm guessing that my scores weren't recording properly the entire time the computer was f*ing up (which was also between testlest 3 and 4… weird)… good luck… maybe things will work out better for you than they did me

    hey jason… what material did you prepare with? it didnt prepare you for the simulations?

  7. Jason Harris 30. Aug, 2009 at 1:08 pm

    I used gleim questions and becker review. I have a guarded confidence because I didn't feel nearly as prepared back in January and pulled a 69. I've been averaging about 9 point increase in the other sections, and have been pulling 80s on my review testlets. I'm happy I got tough MCQs, just nervous as its my final part.

    Jeff,

    Do you know anything about scores being released in Idaho? It looks like the scores are mailed rather than displayed on a website?

  9. Jason Harris 30. Aug, 2009 at 5:25 pm

    New sims were ones that were considered pretest sims. Its unknown if you actually got one until you found out you weren't in Wave 1 or 1a.

    Has anyone gotten their score from the NASBA website once and not had it available again? I saw my score Friday in the AM. I went to print my results about 30 minutes later, and it was gone. I still can't get it!!
