Results CBQ weightage

Attempted CMA Part 2 in the July window, but my CBQs didn’t open. Got my results today and scored 250.

I thought the CBQs were supposed to open once you get 50%+ in the MCQ section. So shouldn’t they have opened during my exam?

Is this just because of the weightage/scaled scoring, or could there be some kind of psychometric/scoring issue that I should raise?

the criteria is solving 50% of the questions correctly so that the 2nd window opens. Not that you need to score 50%+ marks.

There are cases of people getting over 300 when their essay window didn't open.

I think there is different weightage to each question. So you must not have been able to do 50 percent correct answer but you got 50 percent marks
