I re-took part C of the CWI exam last week. Can anyone tell me how soon did you get your re-take results? When I originally tested all three parts I got an email about a week later and the official test results notification via mail in about two weeks. Should I expect an email this time or just a letter in the mail? Thanks.

I haven't personally done any re-takes but re-taking Part C is similar to sitting for an endorsement (in that it's a one-part code exam), and the results for those show in about 1-2 weeks.  But, for your initial certification there may be additional time needed for verification of your paperwork and issuance of your certification. 
An acquaintance of mine did a re-take recently and got negative results within the week.  So maybe hope that no news is good news?  Good luck.

Thank you for wishing me good luck, I just received my CWI certification notice via email. I guess that it does take longer for the notification to come when it contains good news, whew...

magr,

WELCOME TO THE AWS WELDING FORUM!!

Announcements of results always vary even within one testing class.  Never EXPECT anything sooner than the 4-6 weeks that the paperwork from Miami in all of the on line and paper literature tells you. 

Yes, most of the time they have done a great job of trimming that way down to 1-2 weeks, BUT, don't count on it and don't lose heart just because you haven't heard anything yet.  Patience is a part of this job.  I find some people's impatience very amusing at times when they want to know if they passed or not.

He Is In Control, Have a Great Day,  Brent

I understand that patience is a virtue, but when so many aspects of your life are at stake pending CWI certification it is hard to not overreact a little bit, it turns out I passed the exam after all...
