NCARB doesn’t have any kind of retake quota or profit margin it has to meet. The ARE is heavily subsidized by other NCARB operations—even with the recent fee increase. The income generated by candidate fees only covers a portion (about half) of the actual expense necessary to support the development and administration of the exam.
