First time, I started really studying about 2.5 weeks before the exam and nearly passed studying only books by myself. Second time, I really started studying about 1 month before the exam and bought the EET depth for geotechnical depth.  Third time, I started studying 2 hrs a day, or 10 hrs on...

I passed the geotechnical PE wooo hoooo! I was part of the 30% retakes that passed!!!! Third times the charm!

Well lets be honest, Illinois is below average state wise anyways. They are just living up to their name. We wouldn't want to exceed any expectations.

What the heck IL? You have memorial day plans to ruin!

So for the record, this was my third attempt taking the geotech. Participated in the EET breadth and depth review sessions with approximately 2.5 months of studying. The morning session seemed to be very structures heavy. The first time i flipped through the exam, it seemed very difficult  but...

Civil Geotech 52/80 - 31 morning, 21 afternoon. Bombed Earth Retaining Structures (0/5), Shallow Foundations (0/5), Problematic Soil and Rock Conditions (1/3), and Deep Foundations (2/5). At least I know what to study for next time for the geo part, very disappointed.
