    Question about any test anxiety during exam (and shaken confidence)

    i didn't really struggle with test anxiety my first time but did have issues with time management and some other things. what really helped me to jump start my brain when i first got the test open was to just attack the easy ones and work groups of similar problems. nothing says you have to...

    Success Strategy

    the difference maker for me was just working more problems. in the fall i reviewed material but didn't work many problems. since i had to take the civil am this time i needed to go back and review a lot of material. instead of endlessly thumbing through the cerm i just started trying to work...

    PE Exam April 2011, how did you feel

    my employer will pay for the exam when you pass it. other attempts are on you. i was also paid for the day off to go take it. they do not pay for study materials. luckily we have all of the necessary codes so all I bought was review materials.

    So how was it?

    I took Civil/Structural I thought the morning portion wasn't bad. Finished in about 2.5 hours and had a chance to go back through. Actually found a couple of math mistakes I had made early in the morning before my brain was warmed up. Afternoon was pretty rough. One of the topics I am most...

    Transportation problems for the morning exam

    i've spent the last couple of days going over the transportation covered for the breadth and there really isn't that much to look at in my opinion. the guide in the front of the CERM tells you what specific subjects are covered. familiarize yourself with the geometry/formulas for horizontal...

    Passing structural 1

    i failed it here in VA with a 49/80. i can only blame myself as i just didn't put in enough prep time. because of the switch to the 16 hr format and the cost i'm going to take the civil/structural in April.

    CERM 10th vs 11th edition

    I appreciate the response and I see what you're saying. I have the SERM to cover the structural portions of the morning and the depth in the afternoon. I would use the CERM just for non-structural questions during the breadth portion of the exam. I'll probably start reviewing the 10th edition...

    CERM 10th vs 11th edition

    Hopefully this is the right place to post this. I took Structural 1 for the first time in October and didn't pass. Since it will not be offered in VA and I don't want to do the 16 hour exam I'm planning on taking Civil/Structural so I need to bone up on BOD and all that mess. I have access to...
