I did not take a class, self studied using Cuomo textbook/practice exam, boniface practice exams,  mansour practice exams.  I had a lot of material from different friends in terms of summary sheets/cheat sheets. I think what helped best was combing through each one helped me get everything in...

So happy i passed Survey... I am officially a PE! well once I get my license....

Exactly. I didn't really start studying until I had actually nailed down my test dates, but even though I got my authorization late in the quarter (actually even into the quarter I was authorized), there was still a lot of availability. I should have started studying expecting to take it in the...

Something I wish I knew before I signed up for my test dates was that you find out your test scores the same time as everybody else who took it that month. Knowing that, I would have taken one test in the first month of the quarter, and the 2nd test in the 2nd, that way by the 3rd month I will...

Questions were a lot easier than expected, but they were almost completely different than the types I was expecting based off practice exams. I was lucky enough to have enough time to finish all of the questions minus 2 though. 

I ended up using Hiner workbook (without videos) and bought the EET practice exams which also came with very helpful cheat sheets (which I heavily used for the exam). I'm glad I passed, but were I to redo i I'd probably go with doing the entire EET package. 

Results are out! I passed seismic woooo so glad i don't have to retake it with new codes :)  next up surveying next week

I’m hoping it comes out today! I shot myself in the foot though because I’m taking surveying this month in December. So if I don’t pass both I have to take them so far apart next year because of the quarter thing. 

I did the Hiner book but also used EET practice exams. Was really impressed with the quality of it so if it fail i will probably do the EET package. I wouldn’t imagine the new Hiner being that much different from the previous version in terms of material besides code. 

Finished reviewing the Hiner book, his practice test seemed pretty plug/chug and only a few conceptual type questions. When I took the 8-hour I was surprised at how conceptual the questions were instead of plug/chug. Does anybody recall if the seismic exam was pretty conceptual of the questions...

More specifically Hiner workbook (Most current), 7-10, and any survey books. in SoCal, but specifically San Diego. Also driving to OC/LA in a few weeks.
