    Almost at the end of window I retook FAR
    and surprised didn’t see any DRS . I didn’t
    Feel MCQ got wordier in 2nd testlet.
    Unable to believe I solved 65 MCQ correct without any doubt. 1 MCQ I didn’t do because
    I expected it would have taken more than 2 minutes.
    Getting nervous as failed multiple times.
    Have any of you get zero DRS ?
    This is the first time I didn’t get any DRS .please share your experience if you too got zero DRS .

    This is similar to my experience. I took FAR at the end of January, passed with a 77. I didn't see any DRS, and didn't feel the second testlet got any more difficult. I'm also pretty sure I did not get my research question correct.

    I had previously taken FAR at the end of December, got a 64. I didn't see any DRS on that one either, but felt good about my research question.

    Honestly, I was convinced that I had failed the January exam, and continued studying for FAR. When I saw the score, I was sure there was a mistake, and didn't actually believe it was correct until a few days later.

    I'm sorry to say, it feels impossible to know whether or not we passed until we see the score. I hope the best for you.

    *just because there were no DRS SIMs on mine, the SIMs that I had weren't necessarily easier or less time-consuming.

    ^^^ I agree, the amount of documents they manage to include is ridiculous, at least in DRS, you kind could potentially pick the right answer…

    Maybe they're phasing out DRSs because people aren't doing well on them. That would be good. The ones I've gotten in the past were not bad. They didn't have many documents to review and the ones they did have were short. I've said it before and will say it again though, they seem to think that DRS simulate what you'd do in the “real world.” They don't. Reasons: (1) The DRS's are a warped form of MCQ with a many as 7 different answer choices. The real world is not about MCQ. (2) In the “real world” you have more than 15-20 minutes to do a task that involves review of multiple documents, however long they are.
