Understanding Your Score Report

After completing your Part 107 exam, you will receive a score report immediately. Here is what different scores mean:

90-100%

You clearly mastered the material
80-89%
Good
Solid understanding with room to spare
70-79%
Passing
You passed but consider reviewing weak areas
Below 70%
Not Passing
Must retake after 14-day waiting period

Strategy: Aim for 80%, Not 70%

Pro Tip: Never aim for exactly 70%. Test anxiety, tricky questions, and second-guessing can cost you 5-10%. Study to score 80-85% on practice tests, so you have a comfortable buffer on exam day. Our students who score 80%+ on practice tests have a 94% first-time pass rate.

What If You Do Not Pass?

14-Day Waiting Period

You must wait 14 days before retaking the exam. Use this time to focus on your weak areas identified in your score report.

Retake Fee Required

You will need to pay the full $175 testing fee again. This is why proper preparation the first time saves money.
