The way it works is if you are selected, the Academy gives a grace period of I believe seven days to give your nominating source the courtesy of notifying you IF THEY WANT TO. They are not required to notify you. Once the grace period is over they will update your portal with your notification.
They see everything but will only take the highest score in each section whether that score came from your first or fourth test. They will compile your highest scores in each category to give you an overall score that they look at.
