I just took the Part 2 exam a couple days ago and am very anxious. I think I got maybe 60%-65% of the total 500 correct, so does that mean I fail. Some have said I can pass very easily. I am so confused. I know there is a 49-99 scale, but how exactly does that work?

I'm right there with you. Just finished the test an hour ago. Day 1 I felt I got around 70%. Day 2 50%. I would love to hear that 60% is all you need. If I had to bet I would say it's pretty close to that. Can't believe I have to wait 3-4 wks.
