e. The performance exam checklist consists of yes and no blocks. In order to complete the
checklist successfully, all of the yes blocks must be filled out.
In the event, a participant fails the first attempt; a second attempt is given, if time
permits, and after the exam proctor explains the correct procedure. Anyone failing a test
method on the performance exam may repeat that trial during the day of the performance
exam, depending on the timelines and the type of test. Repeat trials will be allowed in
not more than 50% of the total test methods in that performance exam. If the participant
fails on the second attempt the performance exam will stop and the participant will have
to re-take the exam at the scheduling convenience of the Agency.

on any one-test method.
b. Re-exam (second attempt) WAQTC: An initial exam overall score below 70% will
require a re-exam on all test methods. An initial exam score above 70% overall, but

methods. In the case of one test method comprising the re-exam, the examinee must
receive a score of 70%. In the case of more than one test method comprising the re-
exam, the examinee must receive an overall score of 70% with a minimum of 60% on
