It is not difficult at all. If you are still on pro/par, and free it is a success. If you completed your pro/par, and are free, success also. On the other hand(5 fingers), if your pro/par has been revoked, it is a FAILURE.

i guess they are looking for an immediate outcome of success in an individual or a least a different perspective realized, but one would think they would look for this new perspective when parole hearings come around. So just smile and stay happy, they shouldn't know the difference unless your on psychotropic meds.
