    EIT

    I took a similar path with an undergraduate degree in Geology and Master's degree in Environmental Engineering from a well respected school. This was years ago, but I didn't have any problems and I think employers would actually want your more diverse background. Environmental Engineering is...

    Standard Handbook or EERM?

    I'd second that opinion. I had both and found the EERM handbook was extremely helpful for the April 2010 exam. The costs suck but it's also a handy resource professionally.

    School of PE or EnvPETutors.com?

    I used the NC State review course as well and found it to be very helpful. It was pricey, but still cheaper than all the in-person review courses I came across.

    World Cup Efficiency

    Little to no scoring makes the game that much more exciting. Every score is a big deal. One goal can make the difference and a goal can be scored at any moment. It keeps things interesting.

    How Much Math is On the Environmental Exam??

    It's hard to say. If your degree was in Environmental and you had coursework in water/wastewater treatment then you may fair well if you could bring yourself back up to speed. Again though, it's such a wide range of subjects you may be wasting your time learning the basics of new topics and not...

    Most useful threads for enviro exam prep

    The NC State Env review DVDs were a lifesaver on my end...passed first try in April 2010. I thought the water resources examples and air review examples/problems were right on track with what I experienced in the test. Some advice...I went through the DVDs a second time the week before the...

    Who really knows what they do! I think the general consensus is that all the names have been uploaded... She should call and check to see if the licensing department has all her information on file. There was a take-home ethics test that had to be completed before any results were distributed...

    How Much Math is On the Environmental Exam??

    I would add that the problem with the Environmental exam is the breadth of topics covered...water, air, radiation, safety, regulatory. It's a lot of material. I'm focused on the soil/groundwater investigation and remediation side of things and there were only a few questions specifically...

    How Much Math is On the Environmental Exam??

    There was a pretty good mix of qualitative/quantitative questions. The math wasn't hard. Basic algebra.

    Should I take it?

    I'm not mechanical, but I can hopefully offer some advice on the family front. I have twin boys (3.5 yo) and a little girl (1 yo) at home and also found it extremely hard to find time to study. By the time I was done with fatherly duties for the night it was 9 o'clock and i was...

    VA Results

    From a quick look at the previous posts, it seems like many who found out they passed had taken the test before... Maybe that has something to do with it? I passed on the first attempt, but technically it was my second time...I was registered to take the exam 2 years ago but didn't sit for it...

    NC State Environmental PE Review DVD

    I have the set of Environmental PE Review DVDs produced by NC State. I used them to pass the April 2010 test despite 3 kids under the age of 3 and a slight obsession with Lost that wrecked every Tuesday study night. Willing to part ways for a reduced price from new...
