Awesome - thanks for the reminder, Road Guy. I definitely do buy stuff from Amazon.com and I will remember to click on the link from here before I do. Thanks for this awesome board!

Just wondering if anyone is planning on taking this.....I'm considering it. Registration deadline is August 17th - its creeping up quickly. http://www.tpcb.org/examschedule.asp

I would advise on having the HCM with you during the test. I belive that they are still using the "old" edition (check the required references on NCEES website for edition). Ask around - if your office doesn't have one, someone you work with might...I think anyone who has taken the PE within the...

I recently found this table (attached pdf) that summarizes compaction equipment and methods. Be warned, its from 1982, but if I would have found it prior to my exam, I would have taken it in....and it would have been useful to me. Another idea is to make your own chart/add on to this chart...

Thanks Ptatohed! I'd like to thank you personally for your helpful advice and responses throughout this boad. This board helped me a lot, I hope that my little tips can help others

Yep - the books available from the APEGA website are the books I'm refering to that are available on Amazon. There aren't any sample exams that I'm aware of. I think that re-studying the FE ethics problems will help you out tho - and if you took a Civil Engineering Law class (Tort Law) that'll...

UPDATE All books have sold EXCEPT the following: Construction Module - Ruwan Rajapakse - Sample Questions and Answers - $25...

I've got a few books for sale, I used these to help me study for the Civil PE. I've included the links to the individual books so that you can compare pricing, verify editions, etc, if you wish. If you have any questions, feel free to ask! Please email me at the address at the bottom of the...

Update - my wall cert arrived on friday/6/29. It looks great! I noticed that all of the signautures on it are genuine so that was a nice touch. Can't wait to get it framed! I've checked frames out and a good place to go is Michaels. Aaron Brothers is also a good option.

Hey Adeeel - I personally haven't taken the exam, but I have many friends who have. As far as I know, there aren't any study material/reference books out there besides the texts that are listed with the exam information. Don't over think it or make it too hard for your self. Its an exam about...

My office ordered me a stamp thru engineerseals.com....it arrived yesterday (I think it only took a few days) and it looks really good! I have to say - it was MUCH more exciting to see my rubber stamp seal than it was to see my electronic seal. I had to "practice" stamping....I think I stamped...

I very much agree w/the previous response -a review course was definitely worth the $ to me (I also happened to take the School of PE course). It was helpful for a few reasons: 1) It "forced" me to study and kept me focused and on track 2) The review material is condensed and was extremely...

Does anyone in WA (or any other state that issues wall certificates) have an idea of when we can expect our wall certificates? I recieved my wallet card and green DOL permit last week, but I sure would like to have that wall certificate framed and up on my wall....

I have those very same pencils! I agree with FL PE...never give up! You guys have all got this!

Thanks Ted. I'll add to your thread with my study tools (very similar to yours) I passed Civil - Transportation on the 3rd attempt. On my 2nd attempt I was VERY close to passing. Here was my passing strategy: 1) I identified my weaknesses (which were structural and construction) and began with...

7 YEARS......passed, and never looking back :-)

I agree with you both about the water resources class. I also thought that it was slghtly misleading when the instructor would say "this is representative of an AM problem" and he would be referring to a one or two line simple calculation problem that required almost no thought. He'd also do...

You can print the questions 1 page at a time. Its a little tedious, but it can be done!

I also signed up for School of PE onlline, and so far I really like it. I will agree with Kenny911 though that it really kills your weekend....but it definitely forces you to study. I've spent all week studying water resources in prep for our "classes" this weekend. I liked the construction...

miloc- Thanks for posting your Gantt Chart - I love it! Its tough going back and covering everything, but if you have the time then I think its well worth it. I also failed w/a 54/80 and this time 'round I am spending A LOT more time studying and really going back to the fundamentals. :-) Good...
