Good to know, thanks. Yeah I think I'm going to start off with the Cuomo book and 120 solved surveying problems.

Thanks for all your advice ptatohed! I think I'm going to start studying late summer.

ptatohed, It won't be a couple of months until I start studying because I plan on taking the April 2013 exam. It will be my first time. I got my first job last fall and with a master's degree I need a year of experience to sit for the exam and the closest date is next year. But I have been...

ptatohed, If it's not a problem let me know how many problems are in the Mahalatti book. I'm in the process of buying study materials and based on what I've heard from this site and other people, I will most likely purchase the surveying books from ppi. I've heard some good reviews for the...

I want to know if anyone has ever been qualified to take the CA Civil PE with the title "Engineering Aide/Engineering Technician/Inspector". I know the board says that sub-professional work is not considered qualifying experience but I felt my experience as an engineering aide qualified as...

I will be taking the depth in water resources. I guess I'll wait to buy the CERM until maybe August. In the meantime, I could probably buy the Cuomo surveying book and the Hiner seismic manual since those don't seem to be upated often.

I am planning on taking the CA Civil PE exam in April 2013 and want to purchase books soon. Should I wait until later this year just in case they come out with any updated versions of study materials? I plan on buying the CERM 12th ed., NCEES Water Resurces Questions, Surveying Principles by...
