Id be pretty mad if i was an mas student because they said they’d have results before Christmas
Where’d they say that? I don’t think I ever saw that anywhere
In a webinar.
I can’t see any reason they shouldn’t have the MAS results by now. That was a one day window per exam, multiple choice, two months ago.
In olden times, this could be explained by graders all getting together the same week out in Vegas or whatever it was, so they wouldn’t start grading one exam before another. IF there are graders who grade more than one exam, then this could still hold. I.E. they don’t want to make a grader have multiple grading “sessions”.
…but, I dunno how it actually works.
I hope it’s in January sometime. Any later and I probably won’t have enough time to study for a spring sitting.
yeah I might have to take the spring sitting off
It is my understanding that all Exams were graded before the “Vegas meeting”. The Vegas meeting was intended to facilitate exact reconciliation of Exams that were on the “borderline” of the proposed passmark and the finalize any suggestions (and related support) to adjust the passmark (downward).
I’ve heard that graders didn’t really have time to enjoy Vegas during the grading session; but would take a few extra days off of work to spend personal time there (either before or after the grading session).
Good clarification. Still, point being that they all had to get together to finalize a thing, and it would be burdensome to have anyone do this twice as a volunteer.
It says on the AO that the grading seems to be moving along quickly.
Yeah, I’m optimistically hoping results will be out in 2-3 weeks.
I’m more optimistic than that about the timing of results. I’m just not optimistic I passed.
Yeah, this makes me think optimistically they’ll be done grading in the next week or so:
But then they still need to decide on the passmark which will take a week or more.
Read on in the thread. They are apparently done grading. To Decide the pass mark all they do is add up the MQC points.
Anxiety: re-engage!

The CAS should probably make an announcement.
Agreed…something a little more specific than “Q1 2021” would be nice
a higher pass mark? hmmm…I was hoping they would lower the pass mark and get a higher pass ratio since it’s more challenging than the past exams 
now I’m not optimistic
The snapshot mentions a high percent [of exams] being marked (graded), not referencing the actual pass mark.
