Section 1400.175  Candidate Request for Scoring Review

The scoring and review of all candidate examinations are subjected to very high quality controls, and all failing examinations near the passing score are reviewed for accuracy at least twice  prior to release of the scores.  A score review rarely results in a score change.  The Board makes available to all candidates an opportunity to request a special review of their examinations to verify the accuracy of the  scoring process.  Instructions for requesting a review are sent with individual score reports mailed to the candidates.  There is a fee payable to the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy for each review requested.  All fees are nonrefundable.  The result of the review is mailed or sent by electronic means to NASBA and the Board.  The candidate shall be notified by the Board of a "no change" unless a failing score is increased to 75 or higher.
