    Pass rates from October 2009 exam are up

    You are so right. They are all difficult and they are all different just as all of us are. Maybe the devotion to the discipline fell shorter than making the decision to major in it. For arguments sake, I'm just trying to get my name posted above.

    Oh, I forgot to add that I am searching for my diagnostic reports from both 2008 exams. Maybe soon.

    Post your PE failure diagnostic report!

    The 6 minute solutions were not bad at all. I definitely used them. From what I remember from the exam for transportation in the a.m. was curve problems and a stopping sight distance. Maybe a minimum radius and a breaking distance. Work a few and it's all good. Good Luck!!! I graduated...

    Tennessee Results

    I have seen a couple of mixed reviews for this review site but I used pereview.net. It is not free but it worked for me. I had taken the Civil/Transportation both times in 2008. I skipped April and found this site in early August. After thinking about it for a couple of days and realizing...

    VA Results

    For what it is worth, Arkansas posts FE/PE Exam Results on their website in the same PDF file. I am not sure if they did that in 2001 when I took the FE. I found out by letter that I passed. I had just become a Senior and I think the whole neighborhood heard me when I opened the letter. I...

    How many times can one take the exam

    I took the exam in AR: First attempt in April 2008 and second in Oct. 2008. I studied very little for either (Why? I have no legitimate answer). I took a year off and started Studying on August 10 and hit the books and worked as many problems as I could 2 to 3 hours a night, weeknights, and...

    Fatty Raises

    Man, I looked all day New Years Eve for some currant jelly to make a glaze for some Cornish Game Hens. Used apple jelly with a little extra lemon juice instead. They turned out great for something different from the rib-eyes we normally have before the ball is dropped.

    Fatty Raises

    No immediate raise here, either. However, I was a non-traditional student when I got my engineering degree. I was very poor and went to work for the for the first place to offer me employment. I work for a state government and have been there for nearly 8 years. I have advanced to a position...

    That is cruel and unusual punishment. :smileyballs: Tennessee is almost as slow as California. Hope they come through for you real soon and that the news is great. Best of luck/fortune for everyone else still playing the waiting game. :)

    Online Review Course for Civil PE Exam

    www.pereview.net is the online review I used for the Oct. 2009 exam. I PASSED!!! I also used the CERM and the practice problems book that I purchased the first time I took the exam. It was much cheaper than the travel expenses for going to Dallas (nearest to me) for 10 to 12 Saturdays. The...

    So...what color was the pencil?

    DITTO. Just can't seem to put my hand on it at the moment. It's in the box with reference material. Now that I passed I'll have to get it out and frame it or rub it for more good luck... "Happy New Year" from South Arkansas!!!

    AR Results IN

    I don't think I know anyone who has taken the Structures exam. The friend I referred to earlier took water resources, but went into the afternoon with intentions of taking transportation.

    AR Results IN

    Yep. Card came in mail with my letter. The letter states: "A wall certificate has been ordered for you and will be presented to you at the ASPE Awards Banquet in February 2010. If you do not attend, the wall certificate will be mailed to you on Monday, March 08, 2010." I guess they will send...

    AR Results IN

    I worked or knew about 70 to 80 percent of the problems/questions. There were 4 to 6 that required the Roadside Guide and I did not have that book. I guessed using judgment. I guessed at a half dozen more. There were 6 to 8 more that I did not know, but I found an answer using the CERM or an...
