    Ditto on the MERM.

    Registration/Next Steps After Passing

    In TX you have to get fingerprinted. I got that done and out of the way. There is another fee associated with that as well. Not sure about other states.

    How much room do you get on the exam?

    Same here. Two to a table. I felt that I had just enough space though and I put the rest of my books on floor next to me. I couldn't keep my watch on the table so I had to lay it on the floor in a way that I could look down and see it from time to time. I know I could have worn it on my wrist...

    Finding the correct answer from distractors/wrong answers

    3. Pay attention to the units.

    Down to single digits, how's everyone doing?

    Hopefully it does not take 10 weeks for everyone. This past exam in April, it only took TX 5 1/2 weeks to get the results out. Depends on the state.

    Down to single digits, how's everyone doing?

    When I took the afternoon portion of the exam, I went in knowing that it would suck, and it did. It is definitely a step up in difficulty (at least for me it was). Just work the problems as best as you can. If you see one that will take a long time or you have no idea how to do it, skip it. When...

    MERM Practice Problems

    I worked them multiple times. They are difficult, no doubt about it. Seek to understand the way they attack the problem in the solutions. Once I reviewed the solutions and re-worked problems, I started marking in the MERM next to equations that they used. If you feel you are weak on a certain...

    Anyone fail MD depth, then took TFS depth?

    They are cheap too. I got mine for almost nothing on Amazon. Good luck with studying TFS.

    Anyone fail MD depth, then took TFS depth?

    Get Keenan and keys

    NCEES Texas

    Anyone know how long it takes the TX Board to release the passing percentages for the PE exam? I am curious.

    NCEES Texas

    Working problems on my own is where I learned the most. It was not fun, but it worked.

    What now? Finishing the process in Texas

    What kind of stamp did you get? I just got the plain rubber stamp but there are a lot to choose from!
  15. Golden Eagle PE

    What now? Finishing the process in Texas

    Yeah, I kind of had to get going on the stamp because the TX board requires you stamp a document for them before you can do anything. You also only have 60 days to do so. It will be nice to get it in the mail next week.

    What now? Finishing the process in Texas

    Got my License number today from TX. My stamp is already on order. They said the official certificate comes in a couple weeks. Waiting on the conversation with the boss........

    PE and Money

    My boss told me the salary range I would be making once I passed. So there is not much negotiating now except where I will fall in that range. It is a nice bump too.

    Anyone fail MD depth, then took TFS depth?

    I agree that MD is probably broader than the other depths. Keep in mind that NCEES probably adjusts the cut score differently for each depth. Does not mean they have to, but I would not be surprised if they did. Go with your strengths. If it is TFS, then study those problems.
