Yeah I think we're good based on all the posts I anxiously pored over the past few days. Will need to wait til Weds to be 100% sure ofc, good luck my dude.

According to what I’ve read, if you see a yellow link the chances of failure are very high (if not 100%), but some people got the grey box and still failed...

I think in those cases their permit might have just reached the expiration date. If you fail it looks like you can actually reapply and get to the payment page per this thread I found while nervously googling all week.

That post is over a year old. I hope the lack of a button means we passed, but I would like to find evidence of this working within the last 3-6 months.

Yeah but its the only conversation I could find where they went ahead and tried reapplying, so that's really all I have to go on. Hoping we pass as well.

I wonder if this will tell us if we passed before Wed:

So far I have no score for Step 3 (mine is blank). Hopefully it will populate with a Pass (not gonna toy with the alternative) before the NBME publishes the results.

"I’ve been poring over SDN and reddit threads to try and figure out these patterns. Though the fcvs trick is new, it seems like it’s directly related to the step 3 eligibility trick (though much better because it can differentiate between no score vs fail and because people who still have other steps to take can use this trick too). From old SDN posts I saw at least one person say they were able to use step 3 trick on Monday, and I saw another person say they did not have it working Monday but it did work Tuesday. Yet another person said step 3 trick didn’t work until Wednesday. All these people passed, mind you. So I’m guessing the FCVS trick is a total crapshoot from here to Wednesday and that as long as it says “undetermined”, you should have no reason to believe you failed "
