They used to, but I moved away a couple of years ago.

Got mine for October '14 a week ago today. Too soon? :) Seriously though, good luck to everyone preparing for the April exam. :thumbs:

I don't know; this is the first time I've seen the pass rates split up by discipline. If I had to guess, I'd say it may have something to do with how similar the exam is to our day jobs. The Structural exam, for instance, really wasn't all that different from stuff I do all the time in the...

That I don't know. The way I interpret the statute is that if you do engineering work on something that's covered by the FBC, then you're required to take a course on a portion of the code that's applicable to your area of practice. From a quick glance at the table of contents I didn't see...

'cause NCEES hates us and wants us to be sad at Christmas.

Hey all, I just spoke with FBPE and wanted to give you guys the head's up that if you plan on signing and sealing anything in connection with a building as a delegated engineer (for instance precast calcs/plans) then you'll need to take an advanced Florida Building Code course and submit a copy...

Yeah, I've been really curious to know how the pass rates shake out by discipline. I'm glad they started splitting it up. I'm surprised the pass rate for Civil Structural is so high. I guess as a group we're just a smarter bunch! (j/k...maybe :P )

If I had to go back and study again, I probably would've spent relatively more time preparing for the depth section. I was so worried about the breadth questions because I haven't thought about stuff like water flow through pipes or horizontal curves since college, but just being familiar with...

(I'm not brave enough to post the non-network version yet!)

Could be that the FBPE email got filtered as spam. It might be worth the trouble to look into that so you can receive emails from them in the future.

We get a bumper sticker too? Not reading the fine print before buying stuff is kind of a bad habit of mine.

That I didn't know. I'll have to use that link then; you told me just in time for Christmas shopping!

Congratulations! That's a huge accomplishment! :beerchug: I still have that exam looming over my head, but for now I'm trying not to think about it too much and just enjoy being an ordinary PE!

Me too! It's nice to finally see that little green box that says Pass! Congrats to you!
