Default Silly question: did SOA revise November MFE result?

Call me silly, but I'm really confused...I wrote the November 2011 MFE and didn't feel good about it. I didn't find my name on the passing candidate name list in January, so I didn't even bother checking my transcript. But just when I'm about to register for it again today, the transcript in my account tells me that I've passed the exam with a 6!!! And now my name is in the list. I"m exhilarated, but also very lost: did anyone have similar experience? Did SOA mention that they revised some test result for MFE November 2011?

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth - print it so you have record that it happened (in case they try to change something again) and move on to the next one!

It does feel pretty awesome, but not less confusing...My friend mentioned that maybe I just didn't look hard enough in the name list.
Anyway I'm ready to move on. Good luck to everyone who's on this exam! Btw ADAPT is great for preparation, their question bank especially helpful. It was the main reason why I could pass MFE.

I've had friends who pulled up the wrong PDF file when checking for candidate names/numbers. Are you sure you got the right combination of exam & sitting when you checked the first time?

this is far more probable than the SOA randomly adding you to the list lol

I took two exams within a month of eachother once and got the ID numbers mixed up when the passing numbers were released. Maybe you were using an old ID number too?
