Hello, I've provisionally passed the SSCP exam 2 days ago. I did not receive the email from SSCP yet about my official result yet. - I am a bit confused how the scoring system works. - And if any of you knows how does the ISC2 analysis will affect my score? - Have you ever heard of anyone whose "provisional pass" was revoked after the analysis? I know I might have to wait for an answer for 6-8 weeks, so it would be great to have some information about what to expect. Thanks.
