There is also a possibility that the candidate can retake in 3 months, but the university granting the credit has to authorize the shorter retake period. There are specific steps that must be taken, but it has been done by a few candidates here.
I always make sure to point out to candidates who are taking any of the foreign language exams that if they passed the minimum score for Level 1, but needed the extra credits from Level 2, they still have to wait 6 months before they can retake it. It doesn't matter what score a candidate gets from their exam. The computer system is smart enough to calculate the number of months since it was last taken to determine whether this current one is a "keeper" or gets voided.
