Thanks for the tip! I thought I'd probably have to at least have all my transcripts submitted before I could apply. But that's good to know! I'll just apply today then and get it out of the way. Luckily they're giving me an extension to pay the residency Waiver fee until July 31st.

Yes I'm aware, I was going to finish my two courses over the weekend and send my transcripts early in the week. I was already planning to apply for graduation a couple days before the July 1st deadline

I think that I did well on the second section and I would argue the fail on the third section because I know that I answered those five correctly. I might have used too many words.
You said you got 140 of 200, so you just barely passed? Do you know if the system saying you failed the third was wrong? Do you think a person looked at your answers and realized the automated scoring was wrong? Because you used too many words? What about it saying you failed the first section? When you said failed the first section, do you mean the multiple-choice?
I am wondering if I should panic if the automated system says I failed one or more sections
This one seems like the hardest, and I want to pass.

Yes. I definitely failed the multiple choice section of this test. I also clearly passed the essay portion. The last section was focused on kinds of fronts - occluded, etc. I really knew all of that and I was absolutely sure that I had gotten at least 5 of the 6 correct. This was not an automatic scoring exam, but it did kick out the provisional automatic scores on the multiple choice and the last section about fronts. These questions had a text box in which to write the answer. There was not enough room to write a lot, but there was enough to write a sentence, maybe two. So I wrote my answers in brief sentences because, well, that is what I do. Apparently, however, the grading program only wanted one or two word answers. So it declared that I had failed. My score came in and it was a 138. It needed to be 140 to pass, so I sent an email describing what I thought had happened and the score was revised upwards to a 140. I do not know how they came up with the extra two points, but I feel very confident that 138 was not accurate.

Just a quick question, does davar/rpnow grade over the weekend? I just submitted Information Literacy, Public Speaking and American Government. In my opinion both information lit and Public Speaking followed the slides closely. Though there was A LOT of duplicate questions on the Public Speaking exam.

The test grading and RPNow proctor reviews happen at different times. I've received both within 12 hours, or as long as 72 hour, from the time of exam completion. RPNow reviews can take a week or more to be completed.
May I ask how the American Government one was?

YES! They will grade over the weekend. Last Saturday I took a test at 2:30 and had the test graded and sent back in 2 hours. On average it seems to be about a day to a day in a half.

I had a spare couple of hours a few days ago and took the macro and micro exams. I thought that they were pretty easy, but I have been taking a lot of macro/micro courses lately - grad work/Smartly certificates/Saylor. I scored 90 and 91. Nice way to finish up this project. I didn't really need these, but I though for $30, it's nice to get something on the board.
I also completed Applied Managerial Accounting at Study.com. I scored 88 on the quizzes, 84 on the paper and 67 on the exam. That's 239 overall and a pass out of 300.
I am also half way through my Certell/UofColoradoCS Grad Econ class. 97% currently after half the exams.
Surprisingly, I also passed the mid-MOOC for the Edx differential equations class. I took it cold and scored either a 56 or 64.
So good things for me.

American government unfortunately in my opinion did not follow the slides. The multiple choice want too terrible, but the essays slaughtered me. For frame of reference I did just complete American History 2 through shmoop and there were questions that I just left blank because the material was not touched on.
