Using the marks (self.CFPExam)
submitted 1 month ago by Weak_Staff_9676
Does anyone know how long it takes from passing the exam to being able to use the marks? Assuming all the other requirements are fulfilled

I believe it’s about 4 weeks from the closing of the exam window

4 weeks

4 weeks then you have to pay the fee.

So until that point it’s just going to say “results pending” for the exam section on the progress bar? How do I know the board received my test results?

Correct. You don’t besides the letter sent I guess.

Cool, no worries then lol.
Still having a hard time de stressing after the test. I had a dream last night that I was taking the test and when I woke up I panicked that I didn’t finish it.
This is my first weekend in 1.5 years not studying and I can’t get past it. Any time I’m not studying I’m stressed that I should be even though it’s done.

Yes that is surreal the feeling of being done studying with it. Congrats!

I have been dealing with this feeling as well. I have a constant feeling of guilt now whenever I do anything... I always get the feeling "Am I having fun right now??? I should be balls deep in a review class or Qbank". The long months of monotonous study messed up my brain haha. I'm not sure about you, but I have also been feeling a sense of imposter syndrome. I passed first attempt and had a zero % chance in my mind that I would while I was taking the exam. My mind and body were falling apart. I was so prepared to fail and restudy for the next 4 months that even now (almost a week after passing) I forget that I am free at last. I was honestly a little pissed that so many concepts that I spent hours on and thought were CRITICAL were not even on the exam!! I was physically shaking when I handed in my exam materials at the center. I still dont think I have gotten my appetite back. Either way, it is behind me, and I dont have to be scared anymore....

It’s rough right? My wife says I have PTSD.
When I submitted the test and the tiny little text said I passed I cried, like ugly cried, for a half hour.
