@AlecTrevelyan you are correct!
It is very similar. That is why I would like a writer to make it clear and unambiguous like, "Congratulations, you passed the examination. This is pass is provisional based on our review...."
I have asked five friends that are CISSP's what their first thoughts were when they received the paperwork from the proctor. (pictured below) Four of the candidates, including myself, were not 100% sure they passed.
I read it three times like a test question and was only about 80% sure I passed. I handed the report back to the proctor and he told me I passed. At that point, I could see it for myself.
Part of the issue was exhaustion after five hours of testing.
By question 180 of the 250, I felt that I had failed. I kept going so I could get the full experience of the event. I was shocked when I came to the realization that I completed this step in the process.
It is easy to sit here and read the statement below and understand what it says.....it is very different reading it in that context after that test.

I agree. The "provisionally passed" phrase is confusing! KISS. REMOVE the word PROVISIONALLY in the second sentence. Then continue on with the qualify statement.
