I just received the following email:

Duncan,

I just wanted to let you know that you have passed the VI3 Design exam, the third of five parts of the VCDX certification program. Next steps are the submission of applications and then the defense.

Scoring our exams took a long time because we were in the alpha group. But I passed… I’m happy! I just submitted my Design and all application forms, and I’ve got the defense scheduled for upcoming Monday! Yihaaa,
