Mike failed the Uniform State Test twice, then passed on his third attempt. Two months later, he fails the test in a different state. What is the minimum waiting period before he can retake?
Correct Answer
B) 30 days
The three-failure rule resets when a candidate passes the test. Since Mike passed on his third attempt, his failure count restarted. His subsequent failure in another state is treated as a first failure, requiring only a 30-day waiting period under 12 CFR 1008.107(f).
