BAND 10

Would you advise retabulation? Honestly I am baffled at 7 sections of 11 below 50%. I woulda expected maybe 3. Afternoon is right on par with my good expectations…

Thanks s2000 magician for your congratulations and help. I feel like the two extra questions that may have made the difference was thanks to your devotion to our success!

IMHO, this is a workflow status error. The site was returning the long error message for me until yesterday or day before when it started returning the short error message. I passed.

PASS!

Congratulations, frz0r0r!

Last year I tried retabulation/. The final result was that I had lost $100. Doesn’t wotrh the money! It’s only some kind of administrative procedure where the CFAI will take the money from you with no benefits to you!

looking at the line-by-line of my results, i must have barely eked this one out.

having lurked in this forum a few days after the level iii exam, and a couple days prior to receiving the results, i’m glad to see i wasn’t the only one losing my mind / sanity / etc. hopefully now i can try my hand at being a better father / husband / friend / human; studying hours on end turns me into someone i’m not proud of.

53% of folks passed, yet a much higher percentage of these posts are from those who passed. kudos to those who passed, and mucho kudos to those who failed yet were confident enough in who they are to share this temporary setback with the rest of our community. if you failed level iii and aren’t sharing with the rest, you still get lovin’, because passing levels i and ii deserves much respect. and if you care enough to hit up level iii again, best of luck!

Are there ANY known instances of a retab actually working? I’m in the unfortunate position of having already submitted a retab just today on a Band 10 and realize my chances of it changing to Pass are non-existant…but I just couldn’t resist.

In any event, does anyone know of a retab that has ever actually turned a Fail into a Pass…cause I’ve never heard of it happening.

Congrats bro

Congratulations, Eddy!

topperharley, i know someone who took the L3 exam a couple of years back and he was so sure that he passed right after the exam. when the results came out, it was the opposite (not sure what band though) but he was freakin sure that he passed so he submitted a retab immediately. a couple of months after, his result was reversed from fail to pass. so i guess retabs do work.

Passed!!
