I still have my pencil from the October 2017 exam. Intend on framing it with my license/certificate.

Whoa that's crazy if true. The exam site I went to in October of 2017 had a big digital clock on the wall but, depending on where you were in the room, you couldn't see it. I wore a nice analog watch without any beeping function at all on my wrist. But, as others have said, absolutely nothing...

Wait wait wait. Its too early to start messing with people on here. Plus we all know that exam results are released only when the spam board gets 10,000 posts. Oh and of course Pennsylvania will once again be one of the last states to release results (October 2017 exam survivor here).

Yep, looks like they uploaded a bunch of them (not sure if all of them). But I checked yesterday afternoon and there was nothing. Anyone else feel like its confirmed they passed now? I know the NCEES results said pass....but there was just this little bit of doubt in me. Well, ordered my stamp...

I like this response. At least its honest. With the exception of the last part about within a week they aren't setting expectations high. "We are still trying to figure it out". 

Does anyone else go in at the end of the day and see what PE# they are up to? I do.....averaging about 3 names a day still : (

I was the same way for the first 2 weeks (Pennsylvania here). Set the NCEES pass notification as the lock screen on my phone (still there). Helped immensely. I've seen Pennsylvania add about 3 names to their online database per day. Co-worker of mine was added on the first day. Now they seem to...

I remember last Monday, followed by the excruciating wait and constant refreshing of multiple webpages until PA released results early Wednesday afternoon. Thanks engineerboards for killing my productivity monday, tuesday and half of wednesday! :)   Looking forward to trolling this spring when...

I set the NCEES notification showing I passed to the lock screen on my phone. This serves 2 purposes: 1. It reassures me that this is indeed real, 2. It saves me the time it takes to constantly go to the website and confirm I didn't misread the notice. I guess you could say I'm currently still...

Man my heart goes out to all of you who are still waiting on results. I got mine yesterday (Pennsylvania) but the wait from monday until then was more difficult than the stress involved the week of the exam. Just know that the relief after you get the results is just around the corner.

I've heard this quite a bit on this board that the WRE depth is lacking. Thats disappointing to hear especially since I found the Transportation Depth really good.

Quick tip for you since I found that when I studied and took the NCEES sample exam (Civil-transpo depth) I made a few simple dumb mistakes. What I changed after that was I read the sentence of the question that asked the actual question first. Then read the details in the question. So many...

School of PE- Transportation (On-Demand)- 1,100$ This covered a substantial breadth class (construction, geotech, structures, water, survey, basic traffic) and an excellent depth class (in my case I chose Transportation).  On-Demand Option Notes I chose On-demand due to having 2 kids running...

I think you should be able to be general enough about your experience and, as others have said, still maintain the NDA. It may be helpful if you explain what you think you can't include. In my application (Pennsylvania here) I disclosed my client (PennDOT) a couple of times. But I could have...

I started with the lindenburg practice problem book (the separate thing that is also huge). It was so frustrating to me to solve problems about blimps in equilibrium with the number of conversions occurring and especially because, after 7 years, I was super rusty. I think there are some valuable...
