ISA cert tests

Location
Philly
First i would like to say the test that i took was a good test and i have no problems with it. What i do have problems is with the turn around for the results. I understand a few weeks..say 2-3 but the instructors told me that i would be receiving the letter about 5. I could understand this 10 years ago when they didn't have electronic machines to do the grading and the wide use of the internet. Only bitching about the wait time not the actual test itself. spend 225 to take the test to get stone age testing results. Thank you for listening.

They told me that too, im glad to hear the old guy proctoring the test was wrong, rant retracked :). I'm dying to know. I know i pass it overall but i think i screwed up some of the PHC stuff with the ferts inorganic/organic and such. Other than that its a good test a little bit long for my eye and head to handle i started getting a head ach at the end. Thanks for the info.
 
My results took FOREVER! Think it was at least 4 weeks! I found out by checking the website. Still took another week before I recieved my patches in the mail. Couple of friends got their results much quicker. I think the better looking you are, the longer it takes!

I was pretty anxious to get my results too. I kept calling and was told they couldn't tell me on the phone, however, I was told the experation date which meant I passed. Hoping to take the Utility Arborist exam in March.
 
im looking to take the test next year, after everything that you need to put into the thing to pass, they better tell me on a friday, cause if i find out i passed or failed, im going to be too hung over to make it into work the next day, and i havent missed a day of work in over a year
 
I just bailed out on taking it at the Penn-Del symposium 2 weeks ago. I want to get some more time in on the PHC stuff. i just couldnt justify the long drive and expense knowing that I am weak as heck in that domain.
 
thqats where i was weak too i know i passed it overall but im half worried about the phc section and im dying to know.
 
2 days under 4 weeks for them to post online that i had passed the ISA cert arborist test. So depending on your situation it seems like it can range from 2 weeks to 4 weeks to see it posted.
 
Thank you, if I wasn't working grave yard shift doing air spade work in a parking lot over night I would have a few drinks but my system is all messed up from having to do 160+ trees for root invigoration and girdling roots. I pray we crank it up and tonight are my last night. I can't tell you how bad I’m getting climbing fever.
