Does anyone know how they score the exam, meaning if your test is compared to everyone in the same window or only to the people who had the same form as you? Because I just took REG on friday and my simulations were brutal and only had one research tab, whereas some other people had 2 research tabs. So I just wanted to know if my test form would also be compared to the different test forms in Reg.

It's some weird, crazy thing that we'll never really know or understand. Just know that it's not curved to a percentile, but it also does not represent a "raw score" or percentage correct. It has to do with your level of difficulty.

Essentially its a combination of how you did against other test takers combined with how you did on the test (which has is based on how you did on easier/tougher questions).
So its a rubric inside a rubric inside a rubric.

I dont know how its scored, but I don't like it!! I failed with a 70 in November and my report card or whatever its called said I scored above a 75% in 5/6 categories (ranging b/w 75-88%) and the other category I got a 71%.
All my scores were above 70% but I failed with a 70!!! It must be attributable to the weight of the WC and sims.
