    Is Graffeo Exam way too easy?

    Graffeo, NCEES, and Camara practice exams (the only three I did) are far too easy compared to the real exam.

    No they are already well into the Os I think 100669 is the latest so far. The seem to do them in batches throughout the day. They'll probably be done with everyone by Thursday. I also got mine too. Time to really relax now.

    Passed the Exam! Here’s my Thoughts & Advice

    I agree with everything you said. The official NCEES exam sample is laughably easy compared to the exam (I said so in their survey). Graffeo is a good book in it's own right but not very helpful as a reference in the Oct 2018 exam. Exam was mental. Still have no idea how I passed that thing, on...

    Any Update on the Results???????????

    Prior to taking the exam I felt really good about Graffeo. It is very well written and very easy to understand. Any topics that were covered in that book were no problem in the exam. I think the overall pass rate for power (43%) confirms how difficult the exam was. I even more grateful to have...
