The 100-question and 80-question exams are reviewed separately and only participants who have taken an exam that morning may attend the review of the exam they took.
The reviews begin at approximately 11:45 a.m. and usually conclude between an hour to an hour and 45 minutes later. During the review, participants who kept track of their answers while taking their exam can unofficially determine their score. Official test results are compiled by the USGA and emailed to each participant approximately 10 days after each exam. Note: Special ADA reader assistance is available.

requests.
