Provisional Feedback Did Not Show Up
At the end of my exam, I clicked to select that I wanted to view provisional feedback, however, it was not available. Is there a way I can get it now?

This happened to me twice this year most recently back in July.
I was finished with the exam. I clicked on "end exam" and checked that, Yes I do want to see the Provisional Feedback. The Computer loaded and then the next screen that popped up was just that I completed the exam and can now leave. I was shocked because I know I clicked on Yes to see the feedback.
There is a glitch with your system. Please Investigate this instead of just telling us that it's still there. A lot more reports of this are happening.

I took my first exam a month ago and did not see the feedback either. I initially thought maybe I clicked on the wrong button since it was my first time.
I took the PcM test this morning and clicked on the right blue button to say yes to view feedback. Instead of Provisional Feedback, it directed me to a page saying I would receive results in 7-10 days. I agree with what has been said above - there seems to be a glitch.

Maybell/Kaylah this also happened to me on Thursday. After selecting the option to view provisional feedback, I was taken to the 7-10 day page as well. My initial thought was that must be what the default verbiage is if you failed that division (even though it didn’t say anywhere “likely failed”). I was a bit relieved to hear that Maybell had this experience also and later found out that it was a pass! Congratulations!

NCARB has done significant testing of the provisional feedback feature within the exam over the past 6 months. Through our investigations, including reviewing screen shots of exam deliveries, asking our exam delivery partner to investigate, and testing the feature ourselves, we've determined that there are no technical issues with this functionality.
Remember, you will not see results like you see when viewing a final score report. You will see a sentence displayed that indicates you've likely passed or likely failed. There will be no report posted at that time.
If you have experienced an issue with reviewing provisional feedback following your exam, please review the instructions in the ARE 5.0 Guidelines. Take the time to read the text on each screen as you complete your exam. While we understand you are tired from hours of testing and may be experiencing stress, it's important to read the information provided on each screen.
NCARB's customer service is available at https://www.ncarb.org/contact-us and 202-879-0520 for questions on the ARE and all concerns regarding your path to licensure.
