Glad y'all passed, but I want to know why we had to wait an extra ~ 3 weeks last fall :(

Completely depends on what type of civil engineering job you take. Some will involve absolutely no travel and some will involve almost 100% travel. If you're a consultant or a contractor, you'll probably travel a lot, but some engineers never leave their cubicles. Make sure to ask about...

I think what it's saying is if you went to college, start with either your co-op work experience (if you co-oped) or with your first "real" job once you graduated. If you didn't go to college then you're supposed to start with your first job after you graduated from high school.

When I took the test (in Georgia last year) they confiscated my neighbor's binder because she had a paper in the slide-in clear pocket on the front. I guess it just depends on the proctor...

Getting kind of late to order and have time to still have a useful preparation with the book. At this point I'd say you're better off trying to relax and review what you already have--no need to get yourself panicked and worried at the last minute

Still black magic EE mumbo jumbo to me :)

:plusone:

East Lake is definitely a lot better than it used to be, but it still has a ways to go to be somewhere I'd be willing to live. The golf club there is great, though--it was Bobby Jones' home club.

I think you forgot a square root of 3.

If you do buy a new type of calculator before the exam, just make sure to take some time getting used to it. You don't want to waste precious time trying to figure out where the square root button is located...

That's a lot better than I did on my sample run-through about 1 month before the test (but I hadn't looked at the problems previously) and I passed. You seem to be in a good spot so I wouldn't worry. Just keep being deliberate in your preparation and you'll do fine.

Kept him in and am glad I did! Thanks for the vote of confidence

That's the same problem UGA has had for a few years...

That's what I'm doing--thanks for helping me not think I'm crazy!

Braylon Edwards or Calvin Johnson? Calvin is a beast but he's listed as questionable...

The 2001 test had a lot of overlap with the 2008. If you use the 6MS, Lindeburg, and the 2008 test in conjunction with the MERM you'll be fine.

Obscure is just that--obscure. If you're crunched for time, I'd recommend studying the basics. When I first started studying I spent a lot of time on the most specific topics, but then I realized that there's a limited number of questions, and the chances that I'd get some obscure off the wall...

I'd recommend taking a step back, relaxing, and then looking at the practice exam in the Lindeburg. That should give you a pretty decent idea of what to expect. Good luck!
