Everyone has good comments on material and approach. I took the exam 5 times, finally passed this time. I took the School of PE online review course but the key for me was bringing a scientific dictionary. It helped me on at least 4 questions in the afternoon. Also study lots of seismic...

The course was around $900, my employers paid for it. Thank goodness. Even has a retake policy if you don't pass. I took the course this spring, it was 5 consecutive weekends from 9 to 5. Great notes, great format. Also had a bonus class on my afternoon choice.

I just passed the Civil Exam in TN after 5 attempts. I biggest change was the review that I took. I recommend the School of PE online course and many hours of problem solving. Instructors were good and understandable, notes were great and it really prepared me for the morning. As a matter of...

Tennessee still uses snail mail as well. I have even heard stories of people who have changed their address and their results were still mailed to the old address. :2cents:

I too am looking for the best review course. I have narrowed it to School of pe or Testmasters. I need to know which has the best practice problems. Since I have taken the test several times it nows boils done to practice problems until my eyes bleed. Can anyone give advise?

Got mine this morning.

Got my results Saturday. Guess I will try again. It is so maddening when your scores are around 62 to 67 percent. I think that means I missed it by one question in most of my subjects. :suicide1:

:please: I think I am going to throw up, they have the results why not email us. Please just send the results! I have 4 souvenir pencils I don't want anymore. :210:

:waitwall: I agree with the 11 week wait in Tennessee. You would think with the high fees we have to pay to take the test they could get the letters out quicker or at least email the results. Welcome to the 21st century. I am sure we will hear that this time it may take longer since most of...

Thanks anyone else any words of wisdom!

:deadhorse: OK all you knuckleheads. The civil has a valid guestion, too bad there isn't a great answer. I, myself am the proud holder of 4 souvenir pencils from NCEES. I have never been able to quantifiy how many you need to get right. Nor have I been able to figure out the 70% criteria...

:unitedstates: I have an opportunity to work for a local office for the Corp of engineers? Does anyone have a comment, good or bad ,regarding their benefits, hours, work load etc. I currently work as a staff eng for a local gov't but am interested in something different.

Thanks, I will give the site a look today.

I received my results on Saturday in Memphis. Looks like I will be taking the Civil again in April. Anyone know of a good source for practice guestions beside NCEES sample questions. :brickwall:

Ok, after thought of the test. More theory questions than I expected. You know where you can't find the answer in the book. I felt like some of the answer choices were a little tricky. Had one question were the varibles were in english units but all the answer choices was in metric. Whats...

I realize that you are required to have a score of 70% to pass however, does that mean you have to get 28 correct in the morning and 28 in the afternoon or can you get all 40 correct in the morning and then just need 16 in the afternoon. I am trying to figure my odds for passing on the thrid...
