That's quite interesting! When I failed last time out, I was able to view my receipt until result was released... Or so I think.
Interesting. Why would the BOLE would modify anything in these fields depending on the outcome of your exam? Is the receipt no longer available if you pass?

Even California announced a date and time. Excuse my rant.

I agree. At least I wouldn't feel obsessed with refreshing my email constantly when results could still be weeks away.

Exactly. If I knew an actual date I could just be cool because I know it won't be any sooner/later than that. Having peace of mind is invaluable in this type of situation.

Does that mean your receipt had your name and information and then changed to say label? I’m a little confused and want to clarify.

So I know that mine had my personal info yesterday, and now it says label. I called and the lady just said to email if I wanted a receipt, I didn't ask why it did that. Also I've been following this thread, good luck everyone.

Very true! I just hope I still remain sane by the time results are released.

Maybe as results are uploaded? Maybe totally random? No way to know.

It means they need to hire a better coder. Besides that, unknown.

Yeah, I bet it has something to do with their super-antiquated IT.

Seems like it. Especially given the mishaps over the years (a senior lawyer at my firm saw her name in an "accidentally" released pass list around 2010-2011)

That person just happened to check on 10/27/16 without knowing the J16 MEE Answers were posted 10 days earlier.
JoeSeperac - can you please explain this. I understand that there are two pieces of information - (1) the "sample" MEE questions posted on the NCBE website for free, and (2) the MEE questions and explanations posted in the NCBE store for purchase. Do they get posted at the same time? I got the impression that the 2016 and 2017 folks were talking about the free questions that came out same day.
Also - of course completely agree with those saying that there may be no correlation whatsoever between posting of MEE questions and emailing of results. But... if the free posting and results release already coincided twice- that might be a bit too much of a coincidence.
This is a moot point, but I believe the sample questions (which are viewable for free) are released the same day as the MEE questions and explanations (which are posted for sale). I can't say for certain because I don't track that page. It will probably be just a few more days before NY results are released. As I mentioned earlier, I predict Monday 10/22/18 after 5PM. That will be 89 days from the exam whereas last year it was 90 days. I think its doubtful you are going to find some clue as to when NY will release before you receive the pass/fail email (or read about it on here). In the past few years, I’ve researched and debunked all the of the following potential “clues:”

Release of MEE questions and answers means results wil be released

Last chance survey e-mail means results will be released soon

Address Change Request/Change of Address Request Form/Changing your NYBOLE address to find whether results have been released

Re-registering for the exam to find whether results have been released

Checking for the creation of a directory of results list page to find whether results have been released

Are scores posted to the NY BOLE account page anyway? I thought it was just your email and a private results lookup.

Ah. I understand now...it just says "label" for everything once I click. I thought people were seeing "label" instead of the literal "view receipt" button.

Thanks, (slightly) less panicky now.
