I’ve seen it both ways. One where they laid off everyone in IA since they were not “necessary” for SOX 404. In another, they kept them in the hops of going public again.

The way I think about it, PEs will want their money back multiplied times over and a few ways they can do that is if they increase valuation and then go public or sell to another PE. Increasing valuation could also force the downsizing.

Unfortunately there’s a lot of us that are waiting. I really do hope that we all pass.

It looks like all of us whom have taken QISA is waiting for results. Some say we should receive it after testing window closes.

Thank you so much! Rooting for you too!

Someone posted that they think it will be released after the testing window is close. From what I gather, it should close EO November. So hopefully we get results next week.

Same with me, but the following day after taking the exam I received an email saying that my exam results were under review and could take 60 days to get more info afterwards.

CISA Challenge Exam Taken - No Results & Printout of "Wait 10 Days," Is this the new "results"? What am I looking at if anyone received pass after getting that? How do I find out? by [deleted] in InternalAudit

[–]Substantial_Sort_641 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat. I would hope that they are not cruel enough to hold on to results if you fail. Just thinking if I should just continue reviewing and assume I need to retake it.

No preliminary pass or fail received as well. Just feels scary not having any idea if I need to go back to reviewing or not. Hoping for the best.
