Awesome, congrats!

A buddy of mine just told me that he got his results. Congratulations to all Okies that passed! And congrats to every one else, too!

How did you feel about the HVAC questions on the exam? Just speaking for myself, I feel I got every HVAC question right when I took it last October. I think that could be a pretty good gauge to see if HVAC might end up being better next time.

Are you in the HVAC industry? If so, what made you choose TFS the last 2 exams?

I think most people thought it would be released that day or the next. But you're right, that day was absolutely torture. I spent the entire day hitting F5 with a sick feeling in my stomach. Fortunately the day ended with good news. Good luck to everyone! (most likely next week)

This information is probably too late, but I'll still contribute. I took Dr. Tom's course last year in preparation for the Oct 2016 exam. I work as an HVAC engineer but allowed Dr. Tom to convince me to take the Thermal Fluids exam. I studied a bunch and the exam was harder than expected, but I...

Dr. Tom's Classroom Mechanical Discipline - Thermal Fluid Systems Passed, I would recommend this course for anyone taking thermal fluids. It would probably help to a degree for those taking HVAC, although he does not focus on it. He also offers Mechanical: Machine Design and Civil but I can...

I opened a champagne sized bottle of Chimay that I bought ealrier this year. I didn't feel like I deserved it before last night.

Thank you everyone for your help and motivation over these months of preparation!

Gone for OK, too.

Would you recommend an order of importance for the 4 books? I use the Fundamentals often at my job (HVAC), so I am decently familiar with it. The others I have only opened a handful of times. I may not be able to dedicate enough time to reading all of them. Given that, which would anyone...

This looks like a very helpful and well put together document. Thanks Justin.
