I'm an aspiring counselor, and I'm completing my master's degree. In my opinion, I'd appreciate it if the exam didn't have a timeline. The timeline can be an issue, because if someone is unable to take the test for medical, or any other reason, it prevents great and qualified counselor/PsyD graduates from accomplishing their goal of finishing their degree in full. Also, the score of 400, is more than reasonable, to pass the exam.
