another day of disappointment.

There is always tommorow.

[JohnHu]

It is a little warmer today. I think everybody waiting from PA has warmed things up.

[car196]

I hope today's the day.

[paeng21]

Anybody call or email PCS today?

What is the use? They will release the results when they are ready.

We should challenge their delay! Its not fair, especially if we need to retake the exam. And especially if we paid all these fees to take this exam.

Whats their number, I will call them too this afternoon.

[paeng21]

Thanks John, what discipline are you waiting for?

[Rebelboilers]

Aneesu786, Good luck!

Just looking at the PCS website and noticed that now the PA State Board has access to the PCS online portal. They were just added today or yesterday. Maybe they got their technical issues taken care of and now we'll find out soon.

paeng21, to clarify your statement, are you saying that the PA State Board wasn't on this list before a couple days ago? I think that is what you meant, but I just wanted to make sure. I hope that is the case, because that makes me feel closer to getting some results.

Thanks,

I agree with JohnHu, and also with aneesu786.

While I do think that it is absurd that it has been just over 3 weeks since the results were released and we still have nothing, I dont think calling PCS, or the board, or NCEES is going to get you, or anybody, anything. I am willing to bet that anyone you actually talk to has nothing to do with releasing the results, and they will give you the same answer as they have been.

The results are always mailed from the PA state board, so if you are going to call anyone it would be them. I still think that will get you nothing but unnecessary frustration.

I work with 2 other individuals, who received their results 12 months and 18 months ago, and both were notified via a letter from the PA board, and neither were notified online.

It may suck, but I honestly think the only thing we can do is wait.

I agree with all the above post now as well. Did call PCS, got the same answer -- wait 12 weeks -- well resolve to waiting patiently. Maybe the PA board is drafting up letters now I am trying my best to be optimistic, but failing regrettably.

Refer to Post #65 of this thread. My coworker passed the PE Civil last April. NCEES released results to member boards on May 25th. My coworker received an email on May 26th that the results were accessible through his NCEES account. So explain that.....

Interesting. My apologies dussbucs, I must have missed your post somehow.

I am surprised that my coworkers didn't receive it via email, as they are both pretty tech savvy.

I dont know what to think anymore.

[jstaph]

the post above is hilarious. i hope it is there forever.

[johnny_on_the_spot]

still nothing today....

my buddy took it last year in October and he got his results online on Jan 5th. that has come and gone...

[paeng21]

Check your name on the license verification website! My name's on the website as a PE!

[spydrshred]

It occurs to me that the process of waiting for the results is a lot like the exam itself.

The first week was like the morning portion. You are wide-eyed and hopeful. You leave it on cloud nine, thinking that what you are aiming for is right within your sights.

The next 2 or 3 weeks, or more, is the afternoon portion. You start off with a positive attitude but quickly realize that in the middle of an excruciating mind****, plagued with headaches and brief fits of panic. You try to remain steadfast and strong but no matter what you do; you just can’t quite seem to get the answers you are looking for. At the end, you are conquered, slightly destroyed, and possibly hung-over the next day, all the while still hoping that you don’t ever have to do it again.

Congrats to you! can anyone confirm this too? What are your initials if you don't mind. Wondering if they are going through it in ABC order. My last name is a D and I am still showing as an EIT, but my previous address is still listed which was in NJ (living at home at the end of college).

[aneesu786]

I am also not in the list, my last name starts with a V. Hope this doesn't mean I failed. Congrats!

[tdog]

Still and EIT with last name beginning with O

[paeng21]

My last name starts with B

[spydrshred]

I'm a W and still waiting/hoping it is alphabetical. My coworker is B and his is there. Congrats to him!

[car196]

I am still listed as an EIT also. I thought that the license verification was the last to update. What about the NCEES website?

[mjm75]

Just be patient guys but keep checking. first time i checked it said EIT. i waited 10 minutes and it said PE!!!

Last name starts with M.

[razorsk8er]

That's how it is supposed to work, but PCS apparently stands for Piece o' C^@p Service and hasn't updated PA yet.

[Rebelboilers]

I'm a "M" and now listed on the PA license website
The wait is now over.
Congrats to everyone else!

[mjm75]

Also big thank you to all the people constantly updating their status and frustration with this waiting process. Definitely kept me sane knowing other people were anxiously waiting.

[bradlelf]

Just checked with a guy here at work who just took the test ... his name is listed as a PE on the BPOA website.
EIT now states null and void.

If you passed it is up as of this morning.

[rhorv373]

[aneesu786]

Just curious, has anyone received anything in the mail, certificates, pass letters. I realize the results are on the NCEES and License Lookup websites, but now I am getting anxious to get the certificate and the stamp.
