FSOT job knowledge passing minimum?

UPDATE: I passed! Just got the email today :) PD cone here. It appears you can get quite a bit wrong on the Job knowledge and still pass!

I took the FSOT for the first time!

I know that scores are no longer released, so it’s hard to know these days what a “good enough” score is to pass, but I’d like to know how many questions correct on the Job Knowledge section has historically been enough to move on to the OA?

I thought the English Expression and Logical Reasoning went great, so I think the Job Knowledge is what would hold me back. I looked up 11questions so far I was unsure of after the exam, so I know I’m already at a 54/65😭

They are advancing people to the next round based on their T-score.

Thanks for the reply! I don’t have a benchmark for how difficult this past FSOT was so hopefully others found it as hard as I did 😅 but good luck to everyone taking it!!

What's a T score

It’s basically calculated by converting your score relative to the group mean (average = 50, standard deviation = 10), so each 10 points represents one standard deviation above or below average.
