L3 Pass Rate only 49% - FML!

The AM section was too damn long. That probably explains it and they did not want to move MPS too low to compensate. I’m sure top 1% still managed. Motha fkers
Shit top 1%….they couldnt even think to help a man.
 
Another way to look at it is that when we all passed level 2 we were in the 35-40 something percent that passed…..maybe you guys are in that 49%. I’m expecting the worst even though I previously felt confident. Today is probably gonna suck!
 
I believe we can contribute this low rate to the increasing number of level 2 and retakers.
 
If you are in the 49% you are going to want it to be even lower next year to make sure the designation stays as selective and as worth as much as possible.
 
The board probably decide on how many new Charterholders to create each year and set the pass rate accordingly, otherwise the large growth from test takers would devalue the charter.
I am’t complaining though as I passed. Was shaking all morning but am so happy that next year I can actually spend more time with my family now, and not have to tell them I am studying and missing my childeren.
 
Yeah thank god i can start a family now. What a journey. To many of us to spare this kind of time is a testimony of preserverance. Congrats to all passers. To those who didnt slay the beast the next year
 
my suspicion is that the pass rate is decided after a MPS is determined.
For instance, i expect the scores are somewhat normally distributed with a mean of say 61-63. Since there are a lot of candidates having the same score, if they set the passing score from 62 to 63, there are enough candidates who scored 62 and didn’t make the cut to make a few percentages difference. (ie 49% instead of 52-54% in previous years).
 
hey bobice, same sentiments wrt this journey, time to heed the nation’s calling and make more babies!
