Thank you for your response.  I did not realize that Texas recognized the NCEES Record.  

How many pages was your SER?  I know it says a maximum of 12 and there are no minimum requirements, but I am getting some conflicting information on how much detail should be in it.  I have heard of PE's that submitted 1 page and others that submitted 12.  

As the quantity and weight of reference books kept adding up in the weeks leading to the exam, I started to get a little worried about how I would get all of it into the exam with me.  I also didn't want to waste any time during the test stacking and unstacking books.  My solution was to build a...

This is probably overkill, but I took the Civil: Structural and I built a book carrier between study breaks.  Building it was actually a good stress relief.  The picture below is what the rough draft looks like. During the exam, I  laid it down on the ground next to me and had easy access to my...

That sounds like a great experiment! I agree with Matt. The first step is to research why reinforcement in concrete is important.

Study hard! Good luck!

It is just a discussion right?  Correct me if I am wrong, but this is a great place to get gather information and connect with other engineers.  Who or where else is there a place to ask these questions? I agree that going after ABET will cost way more time and money than it is worth, and...

Not the only unethical issue he has posted on here.

GeoP,   I can imagine that that has been a frustrating road with a lot of roadblocks in between. I am not sure if you are still looking to reach your goal of becoming a professional engineer here or if you wanting to settle the score with ABET, but the latter seems like a lot of time and effort...

PEAKY BLINDERS Season 4 is out!

Thanks guys. I am glad to hear there is an attempt to plan farther into the future than I originally thought.  Hopefully the process will safely speed up one day.
