I took a polygraph yesterday without using any countermeasures, and being honest about all the questions that seemed relevant. The one's that I may have fibbed on were "On a scale of 1-10 measuring how honest a person you are, would you consider yourself a 10?" (because how do you honestly answer that question?) and possibly "have you lied to me" or however they word that question, which I didn't but there is always going to be a tiny bit of doubt. She repeated 2 of the Counter Intelligence type questions and the 2 questions above 3-4 times after the original 2 sets of questions. She would mention that I was showing responses to a couple questions, then a little later said "I see you're still having a little trouble with a couple questions".

At the end, she did the whole lean over you and look close at you while asking if I have anything I want to change, and asked a couple of the questions about being honest again, I stuck with what I had said the whole time, made good eye contact without totally locking in, stayed passive and calm and confident. She then unhooked me while saying "you didn't make it through the test. I don't know what you do next, I guess you will hear from your recruiter". She then opened the door and took me to the exit and I said "thank you, take care" and left.

Now, she didn't say I failed, literally anyways, and she had been stand offish and almost depressed acting the whole time (is that her interrogation style?) so I couldn't read into her mood in any way at the end.

I'd like to know if how she ended it was a final tactic to get me to give some admissions (I didn't have any, all the big questions I answered truthfully) or was that her saying I failed?

To give some quick background, I have had my TS clearance for over 8 years, this was my first poly, and I am currently a contractor with a conditional offer of employment in my current Section. So far I'm still at work and haven't been escorted out like I saw happen to another guy here. I don't know if he had just then failed or had taken the test days before though. 

A guy I work with now said that he didn't know he passed the poly until 2 or 3 weeks later when he saw his credit report had been pulled, and called his recruiter at that point. A girl I work with was told she passed immediately and was good to go. So I don't know where I stand and am not looking forward to the anxious waiting game.

NewGuy,

It sure sounds like she flunked you, but one cannot be certain. You may be asked to come in for a "re-test."
