These tests are designed to just make sure your focused and paying attention. To this day I can't figure out which ones I possibly could have gotten wrong lol a lot of people take it's simplness too lightly and end up making dumb preventable mistakes. Those 3 questions cost me 6 years of waiting. With this new test those 3 wrong coulda ment not even getting the job.
I hope you do get a perfect score, but everyone takes this tests so lightly when they shouldn't. 100k people want about 2000 spots, good luck bud!

No set time frame but expect about 6 months of waiting until you get a list number.

Yea man, I think many people under estimated the exam
I mean it wasn't as tough as the " preparation " books are
But it can be very frustrating. Many of the questions at least in my opinion
Weren't exactly written correctly. There was a few which two or three choices seemed like a good answer
When I finished my test I didn't have much time to look it over or review my answrs
I took my time slowly.. Overall I think the tougher questions ended up stumping me
And after I handed my test in kissed this job good-bye because you need 100% correct with 90,000 test takers

i completely agreed the test was easy but it sets you to fail if your brain doesnt know how to adjust to the questions being answered. the highest grade any single person can get is 125

5 extra points for being a resident
10 points for being in the armed forces
10 points if a parent passed away during 9/11

im not to sure if theres another added bonus ill get to you on that

If you felt like some questions were debatable, go to the protest session, questions do get thrown out, on my supervisors test we just took they threw out 3 questions that were protested.

I know exactly what you're talking about. "Those" questions in particular were the tricky ones for me, especially the last one. I do believe if people do get lower scores because of those questions, I think the last one I mentioned could be protested with the right argument.
