(a) For each examinee that has completed the examination on the fundamentals of engineering or the examination on the principles and practice of engineering, the board or NCEES shall provide a numerical score, if applicable, and an indication of whether the person passed or failed the examination.     
      (b) For those exams or exam components with numerical scores, the passing score is 70.     
      (c) An examinee taking the principles and practice exam for structural engineering must receive acceptable results for each component to pass the exam.     
      (d) In accordance with §1001.273 of the Act, the board or NCEES will provide a written analysis furnished by the NCEES to anyone who has failed either the examination on the fundamentals of engineering or the examination on the principles and practice of engineering.     
      (e) Once the board has provided a written analysis of an examination, no further review or re-grading shall be available for the examination except as provided in subsection (f) of this section. However, the executive director may, at his or her discretion, review the administrative portions of an examination answer sheet to resolve administrative uncertainties and/or determine the manner in which an examination should be scored.     
      (f) An examinee may request manual verification of grading of the examination on the principles and practice of engineering results only as permitted by the uniform examination procedures set out by NCEES or by the board:      
        (1) only at the date(s) and time(s) specified by NCEES in its notification to the examinee of his or her failure of the examination; and       
        (2) provided that any costs associated with manual verification by NCEES will be paid by the examinee.
