What information is included in passing score reports?

• A. The candidate's name and test center location.
• B. The division's expiration date and a verification link for authenticity.
• C. The full item-by-item responses.
• D. The candidate's overall pass/fail status only.

Answer: (B)

The information emphasized in a passing score report is its security and validity features. The division expiration date shows how long this passing status is considered current toward licensure, and the verification link provides a way to confirm the report’s authenticity with NCARB. This combination ensures that others (like licensing boards) can trust the result and verify it online. In ARE 5.0, score reports aren’t about sharing item-by-item responses; they present the passing status and these verification/validity tools rather than a detailed test-by-test breakdown.
