    Hey Everyone,

    With the new test format and therefore the Q2 scores not coming out until August, there are some really unquie situations.

    I failed AUD with a 72, and have a retake in early April. I also have to pass BEC. Both of those test would need to be passed before November or my FAR exam expires.

    Therefore, I was thinking about taking AUD in April and July/August(Before know the April Score) and BEC in June/July. Is anyone else considering this? What if I pass AUD in April, but fail in July, will that alter my April Passing score?

    This Q2 stuff has got me all confused!

    AUD - 76
    BEC - 79
    FAR - 75
    REG - 82
    Perseverance!

    FAR 75 (5/19/16)
    REG TBD
    AUD TBD
    BEC TBD

    Can you register to sit for a section of the exam if you haven't already received your score for it?

    I think that's the problem here…I too lose FAR in November and if I need to take AUD in Q2 and don't receive my score until August I'm not sure I'll be able to take it in Q3…

    im in the exact same boat..

    if im not mistaken, as it currently stands, we essentially won't be able to test in the 3rd quarter.

    I am sincerely hoping that there will be something done to help those of us in this position… because we would basically only be getting 5 windows to pass this test in.

    Don't worry EZ_SIMS, its not gonna come to that. We are gonna be in the clear in a few more days…

    Seriously though, how has this issue not been addressed about people not being able to sit in the Q3 window? What a clusterf*ck

    I emailed my state board and they said they will consider extensions on a case by case basis. Honestly if I miss my AUD this time and take in apr/may and can't know til Aug if I passed I'll put in the papers to request an across the board 1Q credit extension. (Since I will have lost 1Q essentially being unable to re-test in June/July), then if I miss again I'll request again. I shouldn't be in a worse-than-normal position on this. It's wrong……

    Bummer, that is unfortunate. In that case I really hope the State Boards show some mercy as I feel that I am at a disadvantage.
