Received my answer sheet yesterday. Scored a 63. Ugh. So close, yet so far away.

Here's to a 66 pass mark like I am predicting.

This is based on the difficulty of the 2012 exam versus 2009-2011, as well as the pass marks for those years.
From the other thread, looking good for those 67's

Finally received mine today. A 68, feel pretty good about it. Granted I was sure when going through the test a few weeks back I had 72....question 32, I remember the answer and everything but must have marked the wrong bubble.

Goes to show you, one question can make a huge difference. If I was sitting on 68 instead, I would be down to 64 and be super bummed out. Granted, based on what a lot of people are saying they received as a score, the passing mark could be 64.
